Press the Maintenance button on the printer 13 times until you see what looks like a capital G without the middle line.
Once you have done that you will need to activate the wireless lan on the printer. This will allow the printer to connect to your network. I haven't tested this below Ubuntu 10.04 but it should work fine.įor setting your MP495 printer up on your network without the use of a Windows or Mac machine (Fresh out of the box with Ubuntu) you will need to match your Routers SSID to the printers default SSID, and remove any security you have enabled. However, I called Canon to get the full range of print resolutions and was informed that this printer is capable of 9600x2400 DPI. This printer is only advirtised as having a max resolution of 4800x1200 DPI. I have finaly gotten the Canon Pixma MP495 working under Ubuntu 10.10, with full resolution capabilities of the printer.
