Everything works fine, but for some reason the prints started coming out garbled and / or blank.
I downloaded the original PPD driver on the Canon site (Europe) and still the problem persists.

Hi - Dummy question #1....
We either use the Hewlett Packard HPPI too or LPADMIN command to setup out printers. Is there an LPADMIN command that will show you the default config of a particular printer.
