3) The gimp-print driver prints much better than the foomatic. What may-be a solution is to setup two printer queues, one for plain text and the other for photos, using the different drivers.
I do that, of course :-)
I have to queues: 'lp' and 'lpg' - the lpg one uses the gimp driver. In fact, some times I have half a dozen, like BW, draft, whatever. The draft queue was automatically defined on the old SuSE 7.3 and older print systems (lp-draft, etc), but not now in CUPS.
I'll have another look...
Also have a look at the Canon Forum on linuxprinting.org and see if there are any solutions posted regarding your problem.

Ok, I will. :-)
Maybe your best bet is to try out TurboPrint http://www.irseesoft.de/linux/english.html
Ugh.
:-?
At least have a look at this site. Although commercial, the
price is not that
high, given the results I have seen using these drivers.
Ok, ok, I'll have a peep :-)
I'd the same problem with three Canon printers, I solved it with the printing filter configuration, try to set : Cyan level -> 2 Magenta level -> 2 Yellow level -> 2 Density -> 2 Printout Mode -> High Quality Quality -> 600x600 DPI It works very well at me. Michel.
