After updating to Ubuntu 20.04, I found that my printer doesn't work anymore. So I removed and re-added it. But then it simply installs a "Generic Text-Only Printer" which, not only does it not print, it doesn't even receive print jobs at all. I've tried this with both my Canon iP2770 and a Canon E410.

I have found a solution here:

Install printer Canon MP280 on ubuntu 20.04

Basically, I have to issue this command in Terminal

sudo apt-get install printer-driver-gutenprint

And then try re-adding the printer again.
