Try http://www.europe.canon.com/drivers/printers which I used a few
weeks ago. The canon sites have been redone recently and are not as
Amiga friendly as they used to be. When I tried to check for an update
for my BJC 620 a few months ago I gave up on the UK site and
downloaded files from their German site. I sent them an e-mail
complaining that their UK site search facility did not mention the
availability of Amiga drivers but they telephoned back  me while I was
out.

BTW if you have bought a recent model it may not have an Amiga driver
yet but one from an earlier model in the series will work. You could
try to phone their customer support. I did this when I bought my first
Canon printer and they sent me a driver disk by return first class
post :^)

For those who have more than one computer Epson UK are offering a free
bubblejet with any laser purchased before the end of the month but you
may find drivers more of a problem than with the Canon :^(
