Public bug reported: This relates to setting up a Canon Wireless printer isensys MF5980dw to print from Ubuntu 11.04
I managed to download the driver files from Canon's site http://files.canon-europe.com/files/soft41790/software/g11a1eng.deb This installed ok but would not print....after running the Printer troubleshooter I checked the "publish shared printers connected to this system" box in the Server Settings window...that enalbed the printer and i was able to print a test page, however after the test page printed this is the bug that the printing troubleshooter reported...
