I'm using CentOS 6.3, and trying to get a printer PIXMA iP4950 to work. The printer is attached via USB.

I've downloaded and installed the drivers from the Cannon website, and have the printer installed in CUPS.

However, when I print anything (even the test page), the job is completed successfully (according to CUPS-log), but the printer does not print a thing.

I don't know how to debug this. Have tried to change logging to debug, but I don't see any errors in the error_log and the access_log says:

Returning IPP successful-ok for Get-Jobs (ipp://localhost:631/printers/Canon_iP4900_series) from localhost

Please note that I was able to print on another CentOS machine however with GNOME Desktop.
