When I first installed cups on Slitaz 3 I had lots of trouble getting it to work. In the end it turned out the usb backend of cups didn't have the correct owner and permission settings. Have a look at this file ...
/usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
... and write down its owner and permissions, so you can revert to the original setting if the following experiment fails. Then change the file like this, ...
chmod -f 700 /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
chown -f root:lp /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb
... restart cups (or reboot your pc) and give it another try with the cups test page.

toto, lp:x:7:tux
This is the group output.
I can send the print command from terminal and it is showed in cups interface. I can canel the job and this works too, but no printing.
Stopped and started printer again, but nothing.
darjeeling, I cannot open /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb with leafpad, so I made a backup copy.
Typed your commands, restarted cups: nothing. Reboot, start cups: nothing.
I always got the message: stopped.

As I do not have this printer, it is hard for me to help more. If I were you, I would investigate more on permissions side as suggested by Darjeeling.
Lets us know how you progress.
Good luck.

Even with all this help my issue is still unresolved.
CUPS has this info on my printer:
Description: Canon iP2600 series
Location: Local Printer
Driver: Canon PIXMA iP2600 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.7 (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection: hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_4a9_10c8_81148D_if0_printer_noserial
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
I'm still getting this error when selecting print test page:
Unsupported format 'application/vnd.cups-banner'!
Which sadly does not turn up much help in google aside from an update to ghostscript which has already been done now.
Does anyone else have any other ideas?

[blockquote]Fixed in recent version: the gstoraster.convs as moved to /usr/share/cups/mime/[/blockquote]
I don't have gstoraster.convs even after using the 9.06 ghostscript tazpkg that was provided here. I checked for the line that is supposed to be uncommented in mime.convs and it was uncommented. Is that gstoraster.convs required? If someone was to copy paste one off their computer I would put it on mine. The bug report does seem like the same bug that I have. I am not able to print from any format no matter what is send to the printer.
