[muglo] Canon Pixma MP 510 - Feed Switch

I figured out what the problem was.  There's a feed switch on the 
printer that can be set to either auto feed or front paper feed.  I 
had it set for auto feed.  I switched it to front feed and the 
problem was solved.  So, I just printed out my first coloured photo.

Sorry for all this, but perhaps this will help someone else.
