Greetings,

I was having the same problem, running Mac 10.5.6, Adobe Reader 8.1.4, and the Canon Mac drivers V1.81. I tried the Print as image check box, and that worked well, though slowly. I tried the resolution issue, and that did nothing. Finally, on the verge of yanking the software out and throttling it like a rent-delinquent roommate, I tried a reset of the Printing system:

System Preferences --> Print and Fax --> Right click the printer and select Reset Printing System. Bang, I was back in business. Root cause? Underlying jam up in the CUPS process, or bogus commands to from the software, or the printer she is...unwell. Who knows.
