Public bug reported: I have a Canon i560 installed on an ubuntu 12.04. When I print the print test page, the "ubuntu" brand name which is black and the black circles don't appear. But the black text in the lower part and the black frame does appear. I can supply a scanned image of the printed sheet if needed.
When I print from acrobat reader or from google chrome, the resulting page miss black text (some text appear, other won't). Printing from LibreOffice or Firefox work well. The configuration of the printer should be ok since I'm able to print correctly from LibreOffice and firefox. I configured the printer in CMYK mode, but alos I tried to print the test page in all different color mode: Greyscale : printing is ok, all test circles appear (in greyscale of course). RGB : wrong colors, the black circles appears in a very light brown CMY : good colors, the black circles appears in a very light brown KCMY or CMYK : good colors, no black circles. I never had any problem with previous version but I'm not sure the problem appeared with the upgrade to 12.04 or later. I also tried to print the print test page with another computer on ubuntu 12.04 and I had the same problem. Printing from windows works well. Thank you.
