Till, thank you for picking this up.

The printer is recognized fine.  If it's not in the logs attached here
previously, then I assume the printer may have been turned off when I
ran ubuntu-bug.  Please excuse the glitch.  I attach the information for
your inspection.

The /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonbj file is not a script but a binary.

$ file /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonbj
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonbj: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, 
version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, 
stripped

http://mambo.kuhp.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~takushi/ does provide sources, though,
and I took a brief look.  I don't understand much of it, but I think the
sources for the binary are provided in a C source file.  I'll attach
that in the next step.  Sorry, but I don't speak C, so I cannot look
into this further.  I'll see if simply recompiling the package in a
jaunty chroot helps at all, it's not totally out of the question.

I hardly use the Brother printer.  Right now, it is about 10.000 km away
and that won't change too soon.  The Canon is the only printer I
currently have access to, so it would be great if I could get it working
again.
