Canon Pixma MG6150 not printing

I am very happy with Arch Linux, everything works, thanks to the clear wiki's!
But printing is a problem with my Canon MG6150. Cups is installed and works: i can select the printer

The drivers (cnijfilter-mg6100 3.40-4 and scangearmp-mg6100 1.60-3 from AUR) seems to work: I see the message (in KDE printer applet) 'Job completed. But no print.

edit: who can help me?

See if the logs in /var/log/cups provide any clue to the problem.

Hey,

I have the exact same problem here.

The drivers installed are :
local/cnijfilter-mg6100 3.40-4
local/scangearmp-mg6100 1.60-3

Jobs in CUPS are marked as completed, but there's not even a peep from the printer.

Have you managed to resolve your problem ? If so, would you mind sharing your solution ?

Thanks

Try installing libpng12 from AUR.  Canon software requires libpng version 12.
