Drivers To Use Ip4820 On Linux?

Just installed PCLinuxOS, a variation of Mint. I found some drivers through Linux which enabled me to use the printer. But the pop-up box that gives details of any problems and tells you when ink is low doesn't appear. I think the drivers may not be exactly right. Can I get correct ones through you?

This printer doesn't officially support Linux so the drivers you found were probably generic or ported by someone. You'll get basic printer functions but you're not going to get any low ink notifications or anything like that.
