    Hi, Just got my AA1 this week, and stumbling my way around it.
    I'm trying to install Canon Laser Shot LBP-1120 under Linpus Linux. I have tried the printer settings option, with AA1 Searching for correct ppd, appears to install, but when you print, eg from Open Office, doc just stalls in print queue.
    So I deleted that printer, and followed the guide provided by Canon to install through the terminal. Doing this, printer also installs, but again nothing happening when I try and print - doc goes to print queue, then nothing.
    So, what could be going wrong? Do I need to use a particular USB port? It is detecting the printer as online though...
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
