This is a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone knew if it were possible to get a Pixma 7200 printer working with OS x 10.4. The earliest OS is seems to support is 10.5, both with Gutenprint and the official Canon website.
Is there anyway I might be able to compile a useable driver from a linux driver? I'm picking at straws i know. But I've been using my B&W since the lock down and managing quite well, until today when i wanted to print something out.

I don't recall the version of CUPS included in 10.4, but if it supports IPP, it should be able to print to that printer since it supports "driverless" printing.
You might be able to get later versions of Gutenprint to compile on 10.4, but thats really iffy at this point.
