After the scan, I was presented with gutenprint as the only choice. I gave the OK, typed my password when prompted and the installation started, but then it freezed at about 50%. I closed system-config-printer.py from the system monitor, then rebooted and tried again, but the second time the progress bar didn't even reach 1%. It just says "installing drivers" but nothing happens. Printer: Canon MP600 I added the same printer on the same computer effortlessly with Ubuntu 13.04.
