Hi, really think you shouldn't give up. In fact I tryied to configure a
Pixma IP3000 just now and it works (at least printed the test page).
These my steps:
installed libxml package for fedora3 (since bjfilter was complaining
about it and I couldn't find rpm for centos4/rhel4)
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/core/updates/3/i386/libxml-1.8.17-12.i386.rpm
installed
bjfilter-common-2.50-2.i386.rpm
bjfilter-pixusip3100-lprng-2.50-2.i386.rpm
bjfilter-pixusip3100-2.50-2.i386.rpm
Then I fortunately missed how to import PPD from the printing GUI so I
switched to KDE and installed correctly using the control panel, printed
the test page, all working (edited the ppd file as indicated on the
article). Went back to gnome, found the Action-->import PPD in the GUI,
added the correct ppd and happily tryied to print, but I got your same
error, or better, nothing was coming out. Found that the 2 files (one
added by KDE the other by gnome) in /etc/cups/ppd/ where different, so
copied and pasted the working one to the other, restarted cups and now
it is working. This is my working /etc/cups/ppd/pixma.ppd file:
