Using Canon LBP7200Cdn (networked) with Lion

Question

After upgrading to Lion, I deleted the printer, downloaded Canon's new driver (3.36), uninstalled previous drivers, installed 3.36, and registered the printer. During registration I got the error message: "Unable to verify the printer on your network."
As instructions said, I continued, printer was created. However, no program I've tried (Preview, Word, browsers) will print. I always get the error message "/Library/Printers/Canon/CUPSCAPT/Bins/capdftopdl failed".
I've tried several times, rebooted & tried again, etc. Can anybody (PAHU?) see where I might be missing something?

Answer 1

The status of the printer and subsequent warning message will be determined and generated by the 'CAPT Statusmonitor for Macintosh' utility. I am curious to see what it is showing on Lion compared to Snow Leopard. So the following details the procedure for opening the utility on both Lion and SL.
Open Print & Fax and select the LBP7200.
Open Options & Supplies and select the Utility tab. Then click Open Printer Utility.
This opens the CAPT Statusmonitor utility. In the menubar of this utility you will see the Options menu. Opne this menu and then select Consumables/Counters. Does the Lion connection show the same as the Snow Leopard?
Still in this utility there is another setting which we can disable to see if that helps to get Lion printing. So still in the 'CAPT Statusmonitor for Macintosh' utility press the Options menu again but this time select Device Settings then Warning Display Settings. In the new window disable the 'Display Toner Cartridge Replacement Notice' checkbox and then press OK. You will then need to power the LBP off for ten seconds and then back on for the setting to take effect. Now try printing from Lion again.
