I must concur with John.  Last December I installed
cnijfilter-mg5500series and cnijfilter-common, and I was able to print
to a wireless MG5520 a friend had just purchased.  I played a lot that
day trying to get it to work (wirelessly and on USB cable).  I initially
tried letting CUPS do the work, and that didn't quite work.  But
following the instructions on the Canon site got me to these two RPMs,
and things worked quite nicely after installing them.  Nothing to build
locally.  (Sorry, I can't remember where I got them from.  "yum list all
cnijfilter\*"  won't tell me anything other than installed, therefore I
probably got them directly from Canon.)
