BUT (here is the complete story) I think, as I have done lots of experiment, thus I have to refresh the whole thing, thus I removed completely cups and cups-common. And reinstall them freshly. Then followed the following link, which I think is most suited as mentioned for LBP XXXXX <a href="http://www.unixmen.com/linux-distributions/ubuntu/229-installation-canon-lbp2900-on-linux">http://www.unixmen.com/linux-distributions/ubuntu/229-installation-canon-lbp2900-on-linux</a> It worked, but as soon as I restart the PC (Here I would again like to mention that I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and Canon LBP2900B, where as, at the bigening of the document it says that LBP2900 is not tested at Lucid) I got another printer called LBP2900-2. With that, previously installed printer LBP2900 also stoped working. Further following the document I tried to uninstall the hal-cups-utils <pre>$sudo apt-get remove hal-cups-utils But I found that hal-cups-utils is already not installed. I delete the printer with following command $ lpadmin -x LBP2900-2 && sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd restart && sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart And printer started working, but every time I restart the PC, LBP2900-2 automatic install and printer doesn't worked. Is there any solution for this ?? Regards Arun </pre>
