Public bug reported: I tried to print documents with Canon ip2770. But, the printer does not work. I looked at the CUPS GUI, there is report stopped "The PPD version (5.2.13) is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2.14. Please run `/usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate' as administrator." I tried to update PPD by sudo cups-genppupdate. It doesn't work. I tried to change access of /usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate to be Read-Write, does not work either.
What should I do now? Please help.
