The license of the driver provided by Canon for the ip1500 does not allow it to 
be included as a deb package in Ubuntu.
The real solution is to ask Canon for distribution independent driver packages 
(http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/WritingAndPackagingPrinterDrivers)
 and to wait until this blueprint is implemented in Ubuntu:
