Printing documents is a primary need to many of LibreOffice users. This article discusses how to do printings from LibreOffice Writer by an example of an A5 page document. We use a Canon MP160--our old but recommended multifunction printer--, on Ubuntu 24.04 "Noble Numbat" to practice this. We hope this helps everyone who uses Ubuntu for all of their computing life especially printings. Now let's start reading and go printing!

 

This tutorial will help you install Canon MP160 printer + scanner on Ubuntu LTS "Noble Numbat" 24.04. We will use the free software driver called printer-driver-gutenprint to do so. We will be able to print, scan as well as photocopy on Ubuntu by using this all-in-one Free Software-friendly machine.  Now let's start the stuff and quickly use the printer!

It is pretty easy. I use Canon MP160 as the printer here, as this inkjet printer mentioned as completely GNU/Linux compatible by h-node.org, so it’s automatically detected and no additional drivers needed on Ubuntu and Trisquel operating systems. You see how to print out documents (using LibreOffice), photos (using Shotwell/Image Viewer), and PDF (using Evince/Atril reader) on both systems. I hope this tutorial helps you both in printing and choosing best printer on GNU/Linux. Enjoy printing!
