I'm trying to install my Canon MP150 printer.
I'm so totally confused now, after reading all I can find on the forums, I don't know what to do next.

I click on Add printer which takes me to the Cups page. There I'm presented by a driver ver rc2 and two files.
cups-rc2-source.tar.bz2 and the same file with extension .tar.gz
Which one do I use? Or am I in the wrong place entirely. Where do I download it to and then what do I do.
Printing ability is usually the first thing I try to set up, as you can then print out help pages when trying to solve any problems, but this seems to be the most difficult thing to do in Linux when it should be the simplest, IMHO.
I know I need a PPD file but how do I get it and then what.
If anyone could spare a little time to write elementary steps needed to install the printer, it would be very much appreciated. I know it's probably easy when you have done it a few times, but I can't even get past first base.

Sorry for the long winded dialogue but I'm really very frustrated now.
Thanks in advance,
