Can everyone with this problem please switch the color model to CMYK to
see whether this solves the problem? Thanks.

Title:
incorrect colors cups+gutenprint
Status in “gutenprint” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I am getting incorrect colors on Canon PIXMA MP240 with CUPS 1.5.3-0ubuntu6 +
gutenprint v5.2.8-pre1.
The print is yellowish and has high contrast (missing dark shades of colors).
I am using Kubuntu 12.04 "Precise" with color management enabled for the
monitor. No printer profile installed.
Same result with all printing applications (GIMP / PhotoPrint) and any
driver settings I have tried.
I start to be frustrated and cannot fix the issue. Possibly there is a
bug somewhere. Help needed. Below is my findings.
-- added a new finding on Jan 3rd
I installed the linux driver Canon provides on its web site(v. 3.00-1, 2008).
(Had to change the dependency libcupsys2->libcups2, see:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305248). The colors are fine but I
lost all the controls added by the gutenprint. Anyhow, I think it confirms a
bug in the cups+gutenprint -driver)

The ppd-file /etc/cups/ppd/MP240_series.ppt contains the following
line with a reference to a .ppd that does not exist. (see below) There
is nothing in my /usr/share/cups/model
