I'm in the process of getting a new printer and since I recently (December 2024) switched to Linux it would be nice if it would be Linux compatible. So far I've decided on the Canon PIXMA G550 printer but I can't find anything about it's compatibility so I figured I would just ask here in the hopes someone might have the same printer or knows someone who has the same printer and can tell me if this printer works with Linux. If all else fails I could still use the printer with my tablet or phone using Canons app but using it with my desktop would be much more comfortable.

My experience with my cannon ix6880 is that it "works" but the print quality on Linux has been really poor :(

    I have the Canon PIXMA G550 now and I've tried printing with the iPad app, the Android app, on Linux and on Windows with official drivers installed and I don't see any differences in print quality.
