At first you should try the GIMP-Print one. It has much more options and
probably supports the maximum resolution of your printer. It also allows
colour adjustment. But Canon support in the GIMP-Print driver is still
experimental (not all models tested). So it is possible that you get
only poor results. The other entry is an old driver (probably the bjc600
driver of GhostScript) it has not so many options, especially no
colour-calibration. It is even possible, that one driver is better for
text and the other better for image printing. In this case the best is
to install two queues for the printer.
See also C't 21/2000 for a review of Linux printer drivers.
