# 4) register the printer with the ccpd daemon

Hello,
I have similar problem with a lbp6000. I followed almost the same way but it doesn't print. I have two question, why did you install libglade2 (you did a typo error in the dpkg command you wrot ibglade2) from the debian repository, the Ubuntu one is not good?
And the second question, I did :
sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP6000 -m CNCUPSLBP6018CAPTK.ppd -v ccp://localhost:59687 –E
But you sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP6000 -P /usr/share/cups/model/CNCUPSLBP6018CAPTK.ppd -v ccp://localhost:59687 -E, maybe it is here the error?

Thanks for your correction. Sorry for late reply.

I don't know the actual reason, i first try
sudo apt-get install libglade2-0
and got "libglade2-0 is already the newest version."
So, I decided to manually download and install it from debian repository.

Yea, for registering PPD, i tried your first command.
But, It didn't work. So, I tried second one.

First of all thank you so much sir for the instructions, it seriously helped me a lot. I've installed the common module for CUPS driver and the CAPT printer driver module and after that the Canon LBP 3300 printer get added to the ubuntu 18.04. But while I'm running "captstatusui -P LBP3300", a pop-up window opened where it shows the error message as "printer error" and "Check the DevicePath of /etc/ccpd.conf" and after closing it, I get an error message as follows:

**(captstatusui:8610): GLib-CRITICAL : 13:05:40.772: Source ID 36 was not found when attempting to remove it

Sir, what to do next to overcome this error? Please help me.
