This is an old workhorse of a printer.

Despite other similar sounding drivers, my experience has shown only the Canon LBP-4sx driver will work.

Others such as LBP-4U do not work.

Under the window driver, there was an issue with pages being split over two sheets, so far I haven't sen thishappen with the CUPS one.

Appears to driver the printer correctly and without error. Just use teh LBP-4sx driver and all is well.
