I installed Mint 13, 64-bit, Cinnamon, and have a Canon ImageClass MF4150 printer. I retrieved and installed the drivers. I added the printer and tried to print a test page. The message said "printing", then "printing completed." However, nothing printed.

I used the following commands to install drivers:

dpkg -i cndrvcups-common_2.40-2_amd64.deb

dpkg -i cndrvcups-ufr2-us_2.40-2_amd64.deb

Then I add the printer in Printer settings. I also add myself as an allowed user.

Then I tried printing a test page and got a message saying "Printing test page on MF4100 series". After about 2 seconds I get a message saying "Printing completed ..." but nothing prints.

What am I doing wrong?

Does anything appear in the printing logs (/var/log/cups/error_log, perhaps other files in the same directory)? If so, please copy-paste everything that appears after your printing attempts. – Gilles Jun 5 '12 at 22:39
