Since this is a dual boot machine (I still need protel for work) I did a shut-down of the printer (yes even unplugged from the powerbar) started everything up and all is well. Looks like wintendo XP strikes again. My Canon 4200 is now detected and I now can print.:)
since this machine sits mainly on linux, I have to set it up so that wintendo boxes can print through it, I suppose I'd better read up on samba :( Thank you for the replies, every little bit helps.
