Hi,

The latest version of gutenprint is 5.2.7, which is available in testing
and unstable:
  http://packages.debian.org/source/testing/gutenprint

I would suggest trying those (cups-driver-gutenprint, libgutenprint2)
so see if this problem was corrected in this release.

If this does not solve your problem, your best bet is to ask the
upstream developers on the gimp-print-devel mailing list:
  http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/p_Mailing_Lists.php
This was a newly-added printer model, and it may be the case that it
requires further tuning.  5.2.7 added support for more Canon features,
so it's possible this was addressed.


Regards,
Roger
