I think this is more an 'rules' thing. In post #18 I said that I did not
know what made it work but it did. I think it is because I downloaded
and installed Scangear from Canon's website. I did this to test the
printer and after that I removed the package again. However, it left a
'rules' files behind in /etc/udev/rules.d/ I cannot upload the file
because my internet is to slow :(

Anyway, you can create your own:
Open a text editor (kate or gedit)
Note that you'll need root permissions so open gedit or kate in a terminal like 
this: sudo gedit (or kate).
And paste the following lines:

# 80-canon_mfp2.rules
ACTION!="add", GOTO="canon_mfp_end"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", GOTO="canon_mfp_start"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", GOTO="canon_mfp_start"
GOTO="canon_mfp_end"
LABEL="canon_mfp_start"

Save the file as 80-canon_mfp2.rules under /etc/udev/rules.d/


I am not sure whether this works but you can always remove the file again. You 
can, of course, also download and install the Scangear package yourself.
