Anne bought me a Canon S900 for Christmas a few years ago.  I futzed
with it for a while, then broke down and bought a driver from
Turboprint for it.  It works but is not network accessible.
Turboprint wants money per-host for their driver, so I schlep a lot of
Postscript files around.

The printer itself is very fussy and has a lot of trouble feeding
itself paper.  That's probably not Linux-driver-related, though.
