Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cupsys

Printing hangs from Firefox, Inkscape, GIMP. CPU utilisation spikes
momentarily then drops back to zero. The printer is a Canon IP1000 and
used to work fine until a few weeks back (perhaps after Cupsys
updates??). I have a fully patched version of Hardy.

/var/log/cups/error_log is below and shows a test page printing
correctly, followed by an attempt to print from Inkscape (blank page)
which hangs before the print dialog appears.

I have followed instructions at:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems

Disabling apparmour and restarting cupsys makes no difference.
