Dear Suneet,
Please change lbp3000 with the number of your printer
Here are the steps to configure the Canon LBP 3000 printer in
IT@School GNU/Linux
1) download the driver from

2) copy the downloaded CAPTDRV160.tar.gz to your home directory
3) right click on the file CAPTDRV160.tar.gz and choose the option
Extract here to uncompress it.
4) open the root terminal
5) execute the command (to switch to the directory where the .deb files are)
cd CAPTDRV160/driver/debian
6) Install the .deb files with the commnad
dpkg -i *.deb
7) Restart printserver with the command
/etc/init.d/cupsys stop
killall cupsd
/etc/init.d/cupsys start
8) Then create the directories and fifos needed by the daemon (ccpd)
and the monitor (captmon) : (if you got any error saying directory of
file exists, please ignore)
mkdir /var/ccpd
mkdir /var/captmon
mkfifo /var/ccpd/fifo0
9) Add your printer to the CUPS spooler :
(the bellow line is a single line not two commands the command begins
from / and end at -E
/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP3000 -P
/usr/share/cups/model/CNCUPSLBP3000CAPTK.ppd -v ccp:/var/ccpd/fifo0 -E
10) Setup ccpd to handle the printer :
ccpdadmin -p LBP3000 -o /dev/usb/lp0
