You'll need to locate the two Debian packages with the file manager (Files), right click on each icon, one at a time, and select 'Extract Here' from the choices that pop up. However, I downloaded one of the Debian packages and it turns out to be a compressed tar archive (filenames ends in 'tar.gz') So, Canon did not make this very easy, at all. (And one is just an archive of the source code.) The others are the same files packaged for other version of Linux and won't install on Ubuntu. Choose 'print test page' and wait for the test page to print.Only attempt to install the two packages labeled as 'Debian' packages.
