Check in the /etc/ifhp.conf file. If you see the Cannon LBP in there, then you should be able to use it. On the other hand, check to see what GhostScript 'output device' is being used. You can then add/modify an existing IFHP Cannon entry to use the appropriate driver. Once you find the appropriate one, send me email and I will update the IFHP entries.
