Well vendors often create "X86_64" packages that have i686 dependencies mostly because the weren't paying attention when the compiled it, so that happens.
As far as cups just not working that's rare. Often cups may have odd output because a vendor decided to make a tweak or some other odd reason which you can usually tinker your way around. That said without seeing the logs I can't definitively tell you but most likely its a network issue such as trying to use a NetBIOS name instead of the IP address.

hello,
 i'm trying to hook up a network Cannon IR2055 @ the office.
 First i can't seemed to find any drivers to it in the regular gui choices. the one for IR5000 doesn't seemed to work - displays "connecting to printer" and hangs.

Second, i went to cannon.com ( well eu because .com doesn't have anything for Linux drivers):
http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010428.asp

got this :
g12bmeng_lindeb64_0204.rpm - CQue 2.0.4 Linux Driver RPM 64-bit
but when installing :
================================================================================
 Package             Arch    Version             Repository                Size

Installing:
 cque-en             x86_64  2.0-4               /g12bmeng_lindeb64_0204   10 M
Installing for dependencies:
 glibc               i686    2.12-1.80.el6_3.5   sl-security              4.3 M
 nss-softokn-freebl  i686    3.12.9-11.el6       sl                       115 k

Transaction Summary
================================================================================

so it needs 686 glibc while been 64?

Any hints on how to get it added?

thank you
