Title:
  bad canon 540 installation ....

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I tried to install a printer canon 540 through the process explained at
  http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/canon_mp540_a_560

  But the system -> administration -> impression (printing) window
  always enter a default server which is not localhost...

  i have always to enter the server checking options and get to localhost manually ,
  then I see my printer
  but this printer (canon 540) although I have followed precisely the steps I was told on the previous webpage, this printer I said seems not to have been registered as a possible printer by any text editing program...

  That is strange as I have been able to print a ubuntu test picture right from the 
  system -> administration -> impression (printing) window    [+ properties of the printer]

  I have tried to change the defaut printer through "lpoptions"

  and even though the lpoptions file has been successfully changed, no
  printer are registered until now in any text editing program as a
  possible (physical) printer

  this is not nonsense this is computer science.
