Not very useful! However...

The install instructions for the Canon iP1800 printer involves downloading a script which then fetches a couple of deb files and automatically installs them. If I change to the directory where these files are stored and execute:-

sudo dpkg -i ./cnijfilter-common_2.70-2_i386.deb

I get:-

dpkg: error processing ./cnijfilter-common_2.70-2_i386.deb (--install):
 package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 ./cnijfilter-common_2.70-2_i386.deb

which is strange considering that the printer works fine!

Are we risking taking this bug report off topic here?
