so there are two stages:
1) get the drivers installed
2) tell your system about the new printer
1)
DRIVER INSTALL:
how did you go on this? If you go to synaptic, you should get a picture like cndrvcups screenshot that I enclose
........that is when the drivers are installed;
and you need the common package installed first.........
2)
TELLING YOUR SYSTEM
I like this step; which comes after driver install; from the link you quote
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CanonCaptDrv190
2a) Register the printer:
as by using
ccp://localhost:59787 .. you don't need fido directories..
then you need to
2b) Register the printer with ccpd daemon:
.........
assuming you only have this one printer, so it gets called lp0...
then you need to
2c) Start ccpd daemon:
then
2d) test the install
..that will open the Status Monitor window.
If the message "Ready to print" is displayed --> all is OK.
Try to print something.!!!!!!!!!
....if the printer kicks into life, great!
My suggestions as to what to do are:
1) first part the ubuntu wiki
and then
2) this great thread

particularly post #4 by Sivella, who is a great master on the LBP:
......if you subscribe to this thread:
top right: thread tools; 3 down subscribe; and if the above works, we need to set up your system so it works each time!

Actually the file "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cups-usblp.conf" is missing in my system
...........you may not need that step...........
