I have been trying to install Canon laser printer LBP2900B in Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon 32bit.



Whenever I give a print order monitor will say " printing" ! After 2 seconds it will say," printing cancelled " !



When i check the printer status( captstatusui -P LBP2900),the message i am getting is:



Communication error:
- is the printer turned on ?
- is the cable correctly connected ?


I reconnected the cable,still the same error message !I am not getting " Ready to print " message after running the command captstatusui -P LBP2900



[Click to see screen shot



And in the terminal it says: "(captstatusui:8733): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 10 was not found when attempting to remove it "



I tried many versions of CAPT driver from canon site including latest 2.7 !
The main link i referred is:
