As to my knowledge the newer canon inkjet printers use a Canon printer
language whose documentation is not freely available. Canon is
sponsoring the turboprint project to some extend and delivers the
language documentation under a NDA. You will not find other drivers for
most of their printers. Canon printers have a cheap price/page ratio, so
you will get back the 25 USD for turboprint by savings in the area of
consumables quite soon (esp. if you intend to use photo printing).
