pixma ip1800 printer divers help please

Did you check the canon Europe site?

yes i did and down loaded what they did have the for linux i was able to find the PPD files after searching for a while.
found it here /./usr/share/cups/model/ but it did say

Printer 'Canon-iP1800-series' requires the '/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij' program but it is not currently installed. Please install it before using this printer.

as it looks to me like a program i did not find this at all.

the printer is hooked up by a USB cabble as well. the only way I know to link it.

I did try this because I did read it in one of the posts. I found 3 and tryed to attempt all 3 with eather no resultes or just got confused somewhere in the prosses. One link tryed to download something from the repository but did not do it. Something about bad or untrusted content and aborted.

Oh ya it was the UK canon site as well. not a bad site to navagate.

Cnijfilter seems needed

ok so where do i find that and how do I install it please

May help.

followed the link. found the terminal (after 20 minutes of searching) and put in the first set of lines
     sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon
    sudo apt-get update

but when I put in the rest this is what I get

wayne@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install cnijfilter-ip1800series
[sudo] password for wayne:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package cnijfilter-ip1800series
wayne@ubuntu:~$

this was the closes that I get and I do not know where to go now or if I am doing something wrong

I would like to thank you all for being patient with me

also am trying

* Note: Ubuntu 12.04 has again blacklisted the usblp module which creates the /dev/usb/lp0 device link. To solve this problem do this

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf

Then comment the file to look like this, canons driver does not talk to the printer through cups:

# cups talks to the raw USB devices, so we need to blacklist usblp to avoid
# grabbing them
# blacklist usblp

i hope i did this right and works and ....... nope nada i am now getting the message when i try to print
"there is a missing print filter for printer 'Canon-ip1800-series'."

ok the printer still does not work and I followed the instructions above.. soo now what??? please
