[conspire] pixma ip2000 printer

[Daniel Gimpelevich]

Here is a HOWTO for getting an iP3000 working on a Debian-based
distribution:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=38995
Notice that the driver there for the iP3000 is different from the one for
the iP4000. For the iP2000, just run kprinter and tell it you have either
a BJC-7000 or a BJC-7100.
