OS: Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit

Driver: CAPT v2.60 -> debian package 64 bit

Printer: LBP3100B


Regarding this "Answer", I've installed the canon CAPT driver on my machine, but when I try to start/restart ccpd, I get this error:

chec the DevicePath of /etc/ccpd.conf

However, the printer doesn't work unless I start ccpd. Here is the content of /etc/ccpd.conf:

# Canon Printer Daemon for CUPS Configuration Data
<Path>
# CUPS configuration file path.
#  Default  /etc/cups/
CUPS_ConfigPath   /etc/cups/
# Log directory path.
#  LogDirectoryPath /var/log/CCPD/
</Path>
# Printer entries.
#  Mapping each "Printer Name" to each "Printer Device Port".
#  The "Printer Name" has to be identical to the CUPS printer queue name.
#  For example, if you prepare a printer named "LBP3200" as a CUPS printer
#  queue name, and the printer is connected to the USB port "/dev/usb/lp0",
#  you can use the following three lines example just by removing the
#  comment symbol "#" of each line.
#<Printer  LBP3200>
#DevicePath  /dev/usb/lp0
#</Printer>
<Printer LBP3100B>
DevicePath /dev/usb/lp0
</Printer>
<Ports>
# Status monitoring socket port.
#  Default 59787
UI_Port  59787
PDATA_Port  59687
</Ports>

After un-commenting LogDirectoryPath /var/log/CCPD/ and trying to print a page, It seems the log file is not created:

$ ls /var/log/CCPD/
ls: cannot access /var/log/CCPD/: No such file or directory

The below picture is captured from the printer properties dialogue:
