My printcap entry is: Does the Canon require a formfeed to flush out the print buffer? My HP 500C does, I hit "Load/Eject" and out comes the remaining text and the page. If so, then you need to put in a simple output filter to stick on a formfeed at the end of input. Such a script is in the Handbook.
