Did either of you look at the link I provided... perhaps:

Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic:
The manufacturer DEB drivers have dependency issues since libcupsys is
now libcups in karmic. To install the drivers, extract the .deb packages
and manually copy the files to you filesystem. Then you need to manually
specify the canonmp190.ppd in your printer configuration. It seems you
must also set the file /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij to be owned by
root and have read-only permissions for everyone.
