Cannot enable Canon LBP2900 printer in Mint 14
I finally managed to install my Samsung ML2168 printer on my laptop where I use Peppermint but despite hours of trying I cannnot get my Canon LBP2900 to work on my PC with Mint 14. I am a newby and not technical but have tried to implement the various suggestions on this site and others. I cannot understand why it is so complicated to get a printer to work with LinuxMint when the OS is so easy to use. I'd be very grateful for any definitive solution.

Are you trying to configure it through System Settings, Printing? What happens when you try to Add a printer? Take a look at the site below at the Mint forums which are discussing the Canon printer and see what their suggestions are:
