Peter Brown wrote a review of the Pixma ip4000 last year -
http://www.os2voice.org/VNL/past_issues/VNL0405H/vnewsf2.htm But I don't
think that model is current anymore and I don't know if the later models
will work. I see the Canon Pixma IP6000D listed in the ecomstation.ru
printer table as working good with the I950/I960 driver and it seems to
still be available when I googled it. Not sure though if good means the
that photo quality is supported though.

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the
growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their
democratic State itself. That in it's essence, is Fascism - ownership of
government by an individual, by a group or by any controlling private
power." Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Message proposing the Monopoly
Investigation, 1938
