And my first mail, just in case was the following:

Hi, I have a printer Canon Pixma iP1800 and I want to print on Linux. I
installed the following packages:
#yum localinstall –nogpgcheck
cnijfilter-common-2.70-1.i386.rpm<http://www.canon.com.au/products/printers/colour_bj_printers/ip1800_support.aspx>
# yum localinstall –nogpgcheck
cnijfilter-ip1800series-2.70-1.i386.rpm<http://www.canon.com.au/products/printers/colour_bj_printers/ip1800_support.aspx>

They worked, the printer seems to be recognized (Im not sure) but it won't
print. When I send work to print "Fedora" doesnt report any problem but the
printer doesnt make a thing.

Does any1 know how I can fix that? If that is so, plz I would like to get
some instructions, since I'm new on Linux.
Thank u,
Valentina
