12.04 & Canon printer (Geoffrey)

[Peter Kukums]

Hi all,

I take everything back. I haven't printed to my Canon for quite a while
and when I just tried it in Ubuntu 12.04 the computer acts like it is
printing - i.e. no error messages but nothing is actually printed - same
problem as Geoff. Scanning function still works though.

Cheers,
Peter
