Author Fedora 2 and Canon S200

I have a Canon S200 attached to my Linux box which is now running Fedora 2.
Unfortunately, in the past, there has been no driver for the S200, and I
have had to use the S300 driver instead. This will do for printing out
plain text files, such as the output from things like "cat /etc/fstab |
lpr", but produces peculiar output from graphics.

Because of this, I was pleased to see that an S200 driver was included with
Fedora 2 - and the printer configuration sets this as the appropriate
driver. Unfortunately, using this driver makes the output get lost
somewhere - the system thinks that the printer has done its job, but there
has been no stirring at all from the printer.

Has anyone made it work? Perhaps there is something that I have missed; the
S300 driover still works as before.
