Though I had to use the Canon driver from some older systems, after playing around with the Gutenprint Driver, I found out that while the default settings do not work, the driver that comes with Mageia 2 is probably better than the Canon driver.  For details on how an MG6120 was set up on a 64-bit Mageia 2 system, see:

* [[OS-Linux-Service-Cups-CanonMG6100-Mageia2|Mageia 2 Installation]]

The printer supports LPR/LPD printing.
