Isn't this really a workaround, rather than a proper fix?  Presumably
when bi-directional comms are used there is useful info being returned
by the printer, so now that it's prevented that will cause the printer
to run slower or other problems will be ignored?

Will this be taken up with Canon's engineers, or were they not the
people who wrote the driver?

Title:
  Canon MX310 printer hangs when printing LibreOffice Writer doc

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  New Linux user reports problem printing letters from Lenovo T60 with
  Linux Mint 17 (Qiana) on Canon MX310 printer using LibreOffice
  4.2.4.2.

  I've borrowed the printer and done a fresh install of Mint 17 and
  Ubuntu 14.04 and reproduced the problem on both systems.  A short
  letter prints to completion as far as the computer is concerned and is
  removed from the print queue.  The printer prints the full text but
  does not eject the page, and the display shows "PRINTING...".  The
  paper has to be manually pulled out of the printer and it has to be
  power cycled to resume normal operation.

  I will attach the document used.

  I've turned on the error log, but it's about 14MB, rather large to
  upload.

  I'll be returning the printer today, and travelling for perhaps a
  week, but after that I'm keen to resume investigation, though this is
  my first time with a printer problem so I'll be appreciating any
  guidance.

  In contrast, printing from Firefox and Gedit have not shown any
  problem.
