I have a Canon Maxify 2750.
Up until now I’ve been using the standar linux drivers for it but they have a serious limitation I really need to solve which is I can only print one page at a time, on one sheet of paper. Printer is capable of full duplex printing.
If been able to install the drivers before but now I’me being confronted with an unexpected _"("_ error. Nothing more, nothing less.
I run the install script and it just fails.
Can someone lend a hand on this, please?
Richard Stallman wept.
I get the reference and I second that one.

I’ve installed the gutenprint driver but my specific printer is not listed as a supported model. Testing it as I write this but with no particular hopes…
edit: and no, it still prints one sheet at a time, no duplex, and it botching the image printing quality
I found it listed under gimp-print.sourceforge.io/p_Supported_Printers.php listed as Experimental. Gutenprint is originally Gimp-Print.
It’s labelled as “Canon MAXIFY MB2750” on that page. In the terminal, what’s the output of:
gutenprint-printer-app devices?
I haven’t installed the GUI
The printer remains as is, faulty
What’s the exact error it’s giving?
install.sh: 27: Syntax error: "(" unexpectedJust like that.
