I have a Canon MP250 printer/scanner device, this is USB. It will not print using Ubuntu 20.04, however if I hook this printer up to an older laptop with Ubuntu 18.04 installed, it prints fine.
When I plug this printer into my Ubuntu 20.04 laptop, Ubuntu says it's installing the printer, and it's listed inside the printers settings area afterwards.
When I visit http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/MP250-series the printer shows up in there. When I try to print a test page from this area, I get this error:
Unsupported format "application/vnd.cups-pdf-banner".
If I go to "Printers" inside of Ubuntu settings area, and choose to print a test page, nothing happens.
Looking inside of the file/usr/share/cups/mime/mime.types
I see this line is there:
application/pdf pdf regex(0,^[\n\r]*%PDF)
When I try to print a simple text file using gedit to this printer, these messages appear from journalctl -xf

The device scans fine using Ubuntu 20.04 but does not print. What might be the issue here?
