Can this dual boot with Linux?

Karl is incorrect. I own this exact model. I purchased it for the sole purpose of dual-booting into Linux. Crouton works too, but I boot into Kali running on a 128GB USB 3.0 flash drive(PNY makes a small form factor one, which I use). In order to do this, you will need a few items and complete a few extra steps. First you'll need to enable Developer Mode. After that, you'll need to enable Legacy BIOS which will allow you to access a boot menu. (Guides to do both of these are easily searchable.) You won't need to enable Legacy BIOS if all you want is to use Crouton, but either way you will need to enable Developer Mode. Enabling Developer Mode will completely wipe the device, so backup your files first. If you're wanting to boot into Linux on a separate USB drive, you'll also need a USB-A female to USB-C male adapter. There's only one USB-A ports, so you'll need the adapter for the installation flash drive as well. After that, it won't be needed. When you pick your distro, I'd recommend a lighter desktop environment, such as XFCE. Unity works, kinda. I haven't had any issues running Kali in XFCE. To that end, the wireless network adapter supports monitor mode(if you know, you know). I've found Kali generally runs better off the USB drive than in Crouton, but your mileage may vary.

Is this compatible with a canon printer?

This Chromebook can connect wirelessly to any Cloud Ready printer. Canon does have Cloud Ready printers you can check with the manufacturer to see if you model printer is Cloud Ready.
