I have been installed OS X 10.11 El Capitan anh it working well, but with my Canon LBP2900, it does'nt work. On Yosemit, it worked well with the patch but seems it doesn't carry across to the new OS. I have reset my printer settings and re-patched the system but no joy.

Hi. I have a file (cnijfilter2-5.00-1-deb) that is a driver for my Canon MG2922--it's a wireless printer. When I try to run the file with Gdeb package installer, I get a message that the file may be corrupt, or the permissions might need to be changed. I can select the printer for scanning, though. I have tried "chmod +rwx cnijfilter2-5.00-1-deb", as you can see from the screenshot. I'm unsure what else to try.

Thanks for spotting that the file is not a .deb. I am wondering if someone could provide a link to the file: cnijfilter2_5.00-1_amd64.deb I tried clicking install for the .sh and ran in terminal, but the printer is never found. I am hoping the .deb file would install the driver for the printer. I have no printer usb, so am only hoping the network finds the printer.
popt
Popt is a C library for parsing command line parameters. Popt was heavily influenced by the getopt() and getopt_long() functions. It improves on them by allowing more powerful argument expansion. Popt can parse arbitrary argv] style arrays and automatically set variables based on command line arguments. Popt allows command line arguments to be aliased via configuration files and includes utility functions for parsing arbitrary strings into argv] arrays using shell-like rules.
