[Solved] Canon TR4550

Hello!
I have a problem with my new printer Canon TR4550. I do not know how to compile the official Canon driver and I cannot compile the AUR package cnijfilter-common because of the error

In file included from bjcups.c:26:
/usr/include/cups/ppd.h:364:14: note: declared here
  364 | extern void  ppdClose(ppd_file_t *ppd) _CUPS_DEPRECATED_1_6_MSG("Use cupsCopyDestInfo and friends instead.");
      |              ^~~~~~~~
make[3]: *** [Makefile:410: bjcups.o] Error 1

make[2]: *** [Makefile:396: all-recursive] Error 1

make: *** [Makefile:18: common] Error 1

Does anyone know how to get the printer working?

Thank you!

Re: [Solved] Canon TR4550

Does the following PKGBUILD work for your printer (not ready for AUR submission)

_basename=cnijfilter2
pkgname=$_basename-bin
_pkgname=$_basename-deb
pkgver=5.70_1
_pkgver=5.70-1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc=""
url=''
arch=('x86_64')
license=('custom')
depends=('cups')
source=("$_pkgname-$_pkgver.tar.gz::http://pdisp01.c-wss.com/gdl/WWUFORedirectTarget.do?id=MDEwMDAwOTkyODAx")
sha256sums=('cc5f5ee9379cf644f089d21513cbe1da7d79084510643dd3faaf0dfa13450f6c')

build(){
  cd $_basename-$_pkgver-deb
  bsdtar -xf packages/cnijfilter2_5.70-1_amd64.deb
  bsdtar -xf data.tar.gz
  mkdir usr/share/cups/
  mv usr/share/ppd usr/share/cups/model
}

package(){
  cd $_basename-$_pkgver-deb
  cp -r --no-preserve=ownership usr "$pkgdir"
  install -dm755 "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname"
  install -Dm644 documents/LICENSE-cnijfilter-5.70EN.txt "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE-cnijfilter-5.70EN.txt"
}
