I should also mention it's a networked printer on WiFi attached to my VM Superhub router which works fine on Windows 7 (it's a triple boot system, Windows XP for older games, Windows 7 for productivity - until I'm happy I can do everything in Mint :) and Mint 15).On 21/10/13 14:18, Julian Hall wrote:
Hi All,
I've been messing with Linux on and off for a few years, mostly off though to be honest. ÂI installed Mint 15 a couple of days ago and I love it, so I'm persevering setting everything up, however - as expected - the printer/scanner is being something of a nuisance. ÂSo far I have:
1. Downloaded the Linux install packages for the printer and scanner from here: http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/products/Fax__Multifunctionals/InkJet/PIXMA_MP_series/PIXMA_MP640.aspx
2. Tried following the instructions from here:
http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-a-canon-printer-on-debian-and-debian-like-systems
and
http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/192
However, having modified the install.sh as recommended as it's a 64 bit system I then get stopped cold by the ./autogen.sh with a variety of dependencies, glib, gtk+ etc which I seem to have got past, but the latest of which is in the below listing from trying to install the scanner - when I get fed up trying to install the printer and went for a change of pace:

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GIMP_CFLAGS
and GIMP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I have GIMP 2.8 installed.. any suggestions please for getting past this gimp-2.0 error. ÂI don't know where/how to set the environment variables it mentions, or what to set them to.
