Comment 8 for bug 926419

To get rid of any "PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table..." update your Precise system to the newest state. This was a bug in the test page generator and this is fixed now. But note that this did not cause your problem.

The real problem is that Canon's proprietary printer driver which you are using is not finding a library:

D [05/Mar/2012:09:28:45 +1000] [Job 35] /usr/bin/cifmg5200: error while loading shared libraries: libpopt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This is a bug of Canon's driver package. It does not have all needed dependencies defined. Please report this to Canon.

Precise provides a library named libpopt.so.0, in the libpopt0 package. So run the following command in a terminal window to install the library:

sudo apt-get install libpopt0

Now you should be able to print with your Canon.

Do not forget to report the problem to Canon.
