How Does One Install Canon Mg Series Printer / Scanner

We recently purchased a Canon printer for our home. My wife's works fine because she uses a Mac.

I cannot find the drivers for the Canon MG7520 printer series printer. How does one install that particular printer so i can print it?

P.s. This is for my ubuntu 14.04 computer.

Canon printers all seem to share the same debian driver. I test this with the Canon MG7520 printer on Ubuntu 14.04.

Printer Installation Steps

Download the debian driver found here on Canon's Website:

Extract the tar.gz file and then run the install.sh file:

tar -xvf cnijfilter2-5.00-1-deb.tar.gz
cd cnijfilter2-5.00-1-deb
./install.sh
