If you have already installed driver for this series,
uninstall it before using this script.
If the driver packages are not found, they will be automatically
downloaded from the Internet and saved in the script folder.
To update the driver, first uninstall the old version using this script,
then install a new one.
Notes on printing problems:
If the printer stops printing, run captstatusui via the shortcut
on desktop or from terminal: captstatusui -P <printer_name>
The captstatusui window shows the current status of the printer.
If an error occurs, its description is displayed.
Here you can try pressing button "Resume Job" to continue printing
or "Cancel Job" button to cancel the job.
If this does not help, try running canon_restart.sh
Printer configuration command: cngplp
Additional settings command: captstatusui -P <printer_name>
Turn on auto-off (not for all models): autoshutdowntool
To log the installation process, run the script like this:
logsave log.txt ./canon_lbp_setup.sh
