Hi Everyone,

Until recently I had been using my Canon LBP 1120 on MAC OS X Tiger 10.4.11 thanks to the driver which can be found on the japanese website of canon (http://cweb.canon.jp/drv-upd/lasershot/captusbmacx.html ).

Since I switched to Snow Leopard 10.6.3, I am no longer able to find a working driver to be run on my new OS X for my LBP 1120. And I guess I am not the only one.

My question is simple :

Would you think it is possible to reengineer / build a driver either from :

* one of the following Mac OS X drivers designed for various LBP printers on the Canon site (http://cweb.canon.jp/drv-upd/lasershot/drv-macx.html )


or

* from a CAPT Printer Driver for Linux Ver 2.00 (http://cweb.canon.jp/drv-upd/lasersh...captlinux.html )

or a CAPT Linux driver reengineered by a French guy, which can be found here :

For your information, here is the link to LBP drivers for any kind of operating system (http://cweb.canon.jp/drv-upd/lasershot/ )

Should you have any idea, please let me know !

Thanks a lot for your comments !

Stan
