Some Canon printers listed as supported include the SELPHY CP800, the PIXMA MP250 and the MP210, though the documentation references outdated versions of Ubuntu.There’s also a link to a PPA for Canon drivers, which will allow you to install Canon printer drives from the software center and terminal. You can download the specific driver (*.deb package or a tar archive) manually from the official site of your printer manufacturer. Are Canon printers compatible with Ubuntu Canon. That’s All – Now you can start printing cool photos with Ubuntu! Sometimes if the driver is not available or the above process doesn’t work – then don’t be panic. print a test page or something else (useful, like a cheatsheet for something) to test. Finally, click on Apply to install the appropriate driver. Next, Give printer a descriptive name and location – it help you to identify the printer. Then, choose the driver – (in most cases, default will be correct) Then, follow the instructions – your printer will be automatically detected and you just need to follow the on screen instruction to setup the printer.

Although, Drivers are available for almost all popular printers – specially for Canon and HP printers.
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS has some cool applications installed by default but just after a fresh installation – you need to install additional drives for the devices and printer is one of them.
