I made a Canon MX922 PPD file that works on Chromebooks from chromeos
For IP address:
I tried a few solutions.
I have OSX, and my first solution was to look for location under “Printers & Scanners.” Location should have told me the IP address, but it was blank 🙁
I tried this: https://help.hikeup.com/portal/en/kb/articles/enabling-cups-printer-interface-for-mac
CUPS also showed IP address as blank
So I went into the Canon MX922 settings on the printer itself (the following is posted in order):
– Setup – Device setting – LAN setting – Confirm LAN settings – WLAN setting list – “IPV4 address.” I inputted the address for the IPV4 address as my IP address when I followed the instructions on the dropbox file on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/mnet0q/i_made_a_canon_mx922_ppd_file_that_works_on/)
