Did you install the driver that came with your printer? If it's not the right driver then you will need to locate a SL compatible driver from Canon's web site and install it. Otherwise try finding the correct driver from the drop down list that appears in the Printer Setup Utility after you've clicked on the [+] Add button in Print & Fax preferences.
