Title:
CUPS reports 'Filter failed' and 'Idle - Can't detect file type' on
printing a test
Does a different driver (PPD) help? I had this problem with a PPD
downloaded from the Canon website, but the one supplied with Ubuntu
worked fine.

Oh and printing anything else txt files web pages etc works fine, this
is just a concern.
