  Description     : CUPS network printing for Canon printers using the BJNP protocol
  Suggests        : cups-driver-gutenprint

A CUPS backend for the proprietary Canon BJNP (USB over IP) protocol.
This allows printers such as the MX-850 to be used as network
printers.
.
This package does not contain drivers; an appropriate driver must be
found in another package. For example, the CUPS MX-850 works well with
the PIXMA 5300 driver from the cups-driver-gutenprint package.

[There may be a better way to organise the long description; look at
other similar packages such as foo2zjs for ideas.]
