Canon MX525 Mint 19 Cinn X64 CUPS Error
Hi I'm having problems installing the printer My Lenovo thinkcentre and my Acer Extensa 5235 both have the same CUPS Error server error - internal error. they both have no problem finding the network printer then starts searching for drivers . My 3rd machine a home build from about 10 years ago found the printer and installed it without me doing anything at all . even before the full install and is working fine. All 3 were installed using the same USB stick Mint 19 Cinnamon.
