printing not readable using Canon MP130

[beginner uk]

Binary package hint: gedit

The first 11 lines print out. In the next lines: almost every other line or part of line is non existent. 2 lines in the middle of the page can be read. The rest of the page has hardly got printed. In places, the top part of the words is printed, in other parts the lower part of the words got printed. Difficult to guess what the words could be. Last night - The printer was installed with bjfilter-common, bjfilter-pxmaip1500, bjfilter-pcmaip1500-lprng, canon-ip1500. It worked last night. This morning the Update Manager did a partial update of some items. A problem was noted with ip1500. (Don't remember what?)
After this, 2 pages were printed off the internet. The first page was fine. On the second page - about the middle of this page the first line of two paragraphs did not print well. There was not much text written in the lower part of this second page - so cannot tell if the rest of the page would have printed ok. What would you suggest?
Background History:- The printer would not work since first installing Ubuntu 9.10 on 29 Jan.2010 onto a new hard drive, (having used Microsoft xp on the previous hard drive). Many things were tried to get the printer to work, unsuccessfully. Only last night, after installing the bjfilters listed above, did the printer work. Today it does not work well as written above ( after the updates??).
Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you. On second attempt, I managed to get the Canon MP130
All-in-one printer to work today. Thank you!

But the scanner facility on it will not work.
Do you have any suggestions re. the scanner?

Is this the right place to respond to Sebastien Bacher? I would like to say that today, on the second attempt, I was able to get the Canon MP130 All-in-One printer to print. I just went to System> Admin.> Printing > New Printer and followed the instructions to install a driver for ip1500 - ( Verso 2.5 - recommended.... I think it was). Thanks Sebastien!
