Canon TS-5350 Printer

Read here about how to add a Printer to Linux.

Gutenprint open source drivers don't always work. This is optional.

dnf install gutenprint

You can view the Printers added to Linux system using this python script.
In Xfce->Start->Settings->Print Settings

dnf install system-config-printer

The main service supporting printing is CUPS

dnf install cups
systemctl start cups
systemctl status cups
systemctl enable cups

Download the drivers from Canon website.

cnijfilter2-5.90-1-rpm.tar.gz
scangearmp2-3.90-1-rpm.tar.gz

Alternatively, you can find them on FTP:

wget ftp://vasilian.net/CanonTS5350/cnijfilter2-5.90-1-rpm.tar.gz
wget ftp://vasilian.net/CanonTS5350/scangearmp2-3.90-1-rpm.tar.gz

Unpack and install with:

tar -xvf cnijfilter2-5.90-1-rpm.tar.gz 
cd cnijfilter2-5.90-1-rpm
# as root
./install.sh

tar -xvf scangearmp2-3.90-1-rpm.tar.gz
cd scangearmp2-3.90-1-rpm
# as root
./install.sh

The drivers will be installed and the printer will be added to the system as TS5300USB.

You can see the printer with system-config-printer
You can print a test page from Libreoffice
