Network Printing and Canon PIXMA MX310

Purchased the Canon PIXMA MX310 all-in-one office printer tonight and the heat was on to get it to work for the MacBook over a wireless network. I have the DLINK DPR-1260 wireless router/booster/print server which does not have any support for Mac OS X. Therefore, turned to the CUPS drivers in the Gutenprint project. As it turns out, Gutenprint does not have the exact driver for the PIXMA MX310, but you can use the MP-150 driver.

To get everything working, I did the following:

1. Downloaded and installed the drivers
2. Went to Print & Fax setup and added a new printer
   
3. Selected HP Jet Direct - Socket for the Protocol
4. Entered the address: 192.168.x.xx:9100 (9100 is the port assigned by the DLINK print server)
5. Entered the queue name assigned by the DLINK print server
6. Selected Canon PIXMA MP150 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2 in the Print Using box
   

Viola, I'm printing like a champ over the network from both our MacBook and PC system. Copying works great, faxing works great, but still have to figure out to get the scanner to work.
