Bonjour Printing Problem

My family has multiple laptops. Since 10.5.6 one of the MacBook Pros will not connect to the bonjour shared MP830 printer (one will), and one of the MacBooks will not connect and one will. The error message the other two get is "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer. Error:-9672"
The printer shows up if one goes to add a printer but after clicking on Add the error message above appears. Tried deleting all print queues and printers and add the printer but no luck. It will connect directly via USB to the two machines but will not work via bonjour.
Also turned off Firewall and tried but that did not work either.
Any ideas? What am I missing?

I am also having this exact problem. I can connect to my HP 1350 just fine directly with through USB. When it comes to printing through airport... it's the same deal: The printer setup utility shows the printer, I push "add" and I get the error message "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer. Error:—9672"
I tried repairing disk utility. I restarted my computer. I'm at a loss now. I really want to be able to print wirelessly. I used to be able to. I downloaded the newest software for my printer last week. I'm not certain if that was the cause, and I'm not sure whether I had used it without error since then or not.
Please help me anyway you can.

  • Bonjour Printer Problem

    I have a mostly-Apple environment but need to be able to print from a HP laptop running Windows XP Pro over an Airport Extreme wireless network. Someone at Apple send me Rendezvous for Windows, which worked fine. I replaced my Epson inkjet with a HP laserjet and now cannot print. I downloaded the Bonjour for Windows software from Apple; it sees the HP briefly, then gives a message that "there are no bonjour printers" or something to that effect (eg, the printer list in the dialogue box, which had showed the HP, shows no printers after a few seconds).
    Has anyone had any luck running Bonour for Windows? Any suggestions?

    Rector, wrong forum I'm afraid,
    try Printing & Faxing
    or Bonjour for Windows
    You will surely get a speedier response there.

  • HP cp2025dn printing problem

    hi there,
    i hope there is some help out there, since i have absolutely no idea what else i could try to make my printer work via airport, which has until now worked perfectly well via direct usb connect.
    via airport either way (ip or bonjour) print jobs will disappear from the printer queue, cause the printer to flash its fancy lights but never get printed or will force the printer into paused state.
    i have my hp color laserjet cp2025 connected to a fresh airport express which is extending my wireless network provided by my elderly airport extreme. here is some data about their firmware and the network:
    firmware: 7.4.2 on both devices
    radio mode: 802.11.n (802.11b/g compatible)
    channel: 2
    security: wpa/wpa2 personal
    additionally i will attach the rather lengthy printer log of my recently failed attempt, which hopefully gives some apple genius a clue of why the bugger resists printing.
    any help is being appreciated.
    sincerely
    peter

    You may want to verify that your printer USB cable is of good condition; try swapping it with another one.
    The problem is "Unable to write print data: Broken pipe" which implies that the USB connection was somewhat abruptly broken/disrupted while data was being sent.

  • Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

    After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
    Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
    Problem:
    - New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions. 
    - When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi. 
    - The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install). 
    Solution:
    1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
    Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
    Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software  for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
    The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
    1 Printer Driver
    (Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
    2 Scanner Driver
    (Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
    3 Network Tool
    (Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
    Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
    4 Solution Menu
    (Canon Solution Menu Ver. 1.4.1 (27-Jul-2012 ))
    5 MP Navigator EX
    (Canon MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 (02-Auf-2012))
    6 Easy-PhotoPrint EX
    (Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX Ver. 4.1.6 (21-Jan-2013 ))
    Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
    http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
    Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
    1. Choose a product category
    Multifunctional Printers
    2. Choose a product series
      Pixma
    3. Choose a product model
      Pixma MX868
    4. Choose type of document
    Downloads or FAQ
    If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
    2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
    Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB.  Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’).  This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
    3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
    After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
    Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
    DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list).  The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
    You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
    If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List.  It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
    If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

  • Snow Leopard Breaks Bonjour Printing (HP Color Laserjet)

    Hi,
    I have a MacBook (newly reformatted) with the newest version of print drivers from HP's website, connected to a HP Color Laserjet CM1312nfi, with print sharing enabled and "share this printer over the network checked". It used to work well for Bonjour printing from all my other leopard macs in my house, before I updated to Snow Leopard.
    All of the computers I mention here are fully updated.
    On the other computers....
    The printer shows up in add a printer under Bonjour, but it takes a long time to find the driver. I have tried printing using the "Generic PostScript Printer" driver as well as the HP Color Laserjet cm1312MFP driver, but both get stuck at "Connecting to Printer". After a few minutes of this they peter out and just mark the job as completed.
    This is all while the printer is awake and the host computer is awake.
    Another computer, without the HP Printer solution software installed, but that still comes up with the HP Color Laserjet cm1312 MFP drivers, will say "Connected to printer" then automatically mark the job as on hold. No matter how many times I reset the print queue, on this computer nothing works.
    These computers are all running 10.6.
    I can print directly from the computer that is hosting the bonjour printer without any problems.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Josh,
    First, let me make sure my assumptions are correct. The printer is USB connected to the Mac that has printer sharing turned on, and the other Macs find the shared printer via Bonjour. All the Macs are running Snow Leopard. The computer with the printer connected via USB prints just fine. All of the other computers don't work.
    So, let me ask this. If you open up the Sharing System Preference, and select Printer Sharing, Printer Sharing is turned on, the printer you want to share is listed in the list with a checkmark next to it, and the Users is setup so Everyone Can Print. Also when you open up the Print & Fax System Preference and click on your printer, the "Share this printer on the network" checkbox is on as well.
    Next make sure that all the computer are running the HP Drivers version 2.2 from Apple Software Update (or downloaded from [Apple.com|http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907]).
    If all of this is true, let me ask if you connect the device to Ethernet (if possible at least temporarily) if all of the computers can find and print to the CM1312? This might help narrow things down.
    Just trying to help.

  • Airport Extreme printing problem w/ HP7 410 all-in-one

    I just purchased a HP officejet 7410 all-in-one.
    I can print using USB cable connected to printer.
    However, I CANNOT print connecting the USB cable from printer to Airport Extreme and using Bonjour printing? The print job spools than just stops?
    Any help would be appreciated....
    macbook pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hello HevnLgh,
    Thank you for your input. I tried to follow your instructions but had trouble right from the start. I got to HP uninstaller and clicked continue but there was no printer listed. It just said "device" and uninstall was greyed out. I decided to just continue so I reset the printing system and repaired the  disk permissions. 
    It took me a couple of tries to reinstall the printer from the Apple website because at first it couldn't find the device to add so I tried using the IP address on the next tab and that seemed to do something but it still wouldn't print. The printer was found after I  went back and tried again and everything seemed to work this time (whew).
    I tried the update procedure on the printer itself and it still can't connect with the server, but the original problem with the duplicate copy on shut down seems to have resolved itself.
    The bottom line is my printer is working like it's supposed to (for now anyway)  and I didn't get two copies of my printout so thank you again for your help.  It's good to know I can go somewhere for help when I have a problem.

  • Solution to Ipad/ Airprint wireless printing problems

    I recently spent several hours trying unsuccessfully to get my ipad mini, IOS7.1, to print to an HP7525 printer using the airprint feature built into both units. I tried every trick offered on many Apple and HP forums but to no avail. I then discovered that my router, an ASUS RT-N1 3U does not properly support the Bonjour packet protocols which are essential to Airprint. So I bought a new router, the Canadian D-Link AC1200 (model DIR-860L), hoping it would solve the problem. It worked like a charm instantly. The Bonjour printer wizard now had the HP7525 in its list of printers and my IPAD mini could now print my Foreflight aviation charts, as well as anything else. It also seems to have solved another HP7525 problem whereby the wireless link goes down after 5 minutes and the printer has to be rebooted every time you want to print something. The link now stays up permanently!. I just hope my good fortune in solving these problems can be of use to others.
    My PC operating sysem is WIN 7 64 bit.

    These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and make your router secure and hack proof.
    1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual). 
        This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers.  Verify your DHCP range and change this
        first if needed.  More Wireless Printing help is here.
    2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled.  Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the  
        printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click  Settings Tab/Auto Off.  Or use the Printer
        Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS). 
    In the router:  (Refer to your router manual for information)
    3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1,6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest. 
    4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router. 
    5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode. 
    6. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security.  Nobody can hack your
        system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web). 
    7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
        they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks. 
    8. Save all settings.  Power off both, wait 2 mins.  Power on router wait 2 mins. 
    9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router. 
    Windows 7/8/8.1   Is Network Discovery on or off?
    Control Panel/Network and Internet/Network and Sharing Center/Advanced sharing settings.
    Under Home or Work (current profile) / Network Discovery.
    Select "Turn on network discovery" and save changes.

  • Printing problems after updat maverick

    After update to maverick mine hp deskjet 3070a ,cannot print wirelessprinting anymore.the AirPrint is not in the list and, bonjour printing is not in the list *** Well Before i update the printer was working allright with wireless connection. No problem what so ever. I can only choose USB printing. Can you please give me Some advice.

    I have the same idential issue with a HP Laser Jet Printer P1100/P1102w... If you tick the netwrok printer sharing box on the USB connection the Bonjoour printers show up then almost immediateky dissapear? Only on a few occasions do they remain stable enough to click on and add, however it fails to support AirPrint and will not print over WiFi... it does not pick AirPrint as the driver on AutoSelect and even if I select the printer driver manually it still will not print over WiFi... USB is fine however. I have reset the printing system, I have done a WiFi card reset, I have done all the troubleshooting I can do but still there is an issue? Is there anything else I can do?
    I will be getting HP support to remotely shoaddow my Mac in an attempt to get a successful installation however I suspect the issue will persist? All the Apple Updates are done and also the current drivers are installed. I suspect this is an Apple Bug that needs to be fixed asap? It is a brand new HP printer that is supposed to support AirPrint...Very frustrating Apple?

  • Bonjour printer on Windows XP's stops working after reboot

    Hello!
    We have a AirPort extreme with an HP LaserJet 1010 connected to it. AirPort Extreme also serves as a gateway and DHCP server for the LAN.
    Installing the printer on the local machines running Windows XP thru Bonjour works fine and all the documents are printed correctly. The printer is being installed as a single default printer on the system.
    However, printer stops working after Windows XP machines are rebooted (the next morning). The installed printer keeps accumulating documents in queue and not spooling them to the printer. Issue could only be resolved by adding a new printer (which also works fine).
    It seems not to be a connectivity problem as XP machines access the Internet thru the AirPort Extreme without any problem. Bonjour printer setup wizard also instantly sees the printer and is able to install it correctly. Mac's in the same network (iBook G3 and PowerBook G4 with Tiger) are not affected by the issue.
    Any ideas on how the situation could be corrected?
    - Baglan

    Did anyone find a solution to this.
    I have a HP Laserjet 1020 attached to my Airport. Using the Bonjour program on my Windows XP computer it found the printer attached, and added it to my printers. When I print all seems ok - it appears in the printer queue, then disappears as though its printed - but nothing comes out of the printer.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

  • Timecapsule printing problem

    My hp laserjet 1300 connected to my timecapsule prints beautifully from my iMac. My pc winXP running a fresh install of bonjour cannot print. The bonjour print wizard recognizes the printer, installs it, but the test page fails to print. I have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled, reinstalled to I am blue in the face. Any reason why this printer will not work on my pc?

    Hi
    I have exactly the same problem with the canon printer in use with bonjour and TimeCapsule. Running XP (SP3) an bonjour realizes the printer but the printer doesn`t work, it just queues the orders.
    Moreover, when I have then uninstalled bonjour to still print on XP over USB it shows the same effect. Installing, uninstalling the canon driver doesn`t bring any solution .

  • CS4 and Printing Problems

    I have just upgraded to Photoshop CS4.
    I am running Mac OS 10.4.11 on a G-5 iMac.
    I have a high end Canon CLC color printer/copier.
    I have spent hours on the phone with Adobe (spoke with guys in 3 different countries) and with Canon.
    All drivers are current and my system has all updates.
    I can not print to the Canon within CS4. I can from CS2 and every other program and have.
    My partner has a (intel) MacBook Pro running OS 10.5x.
    He can print from C4 to the Canon.
    Has ANYONE experiences any problems printing to a network printer (not a bonjour printer) from CS4 in OS 10.4.11??
    My fear is that CS4 really needs OS 10.5x.
    I am still running 10.4.11 because I am a Freehand power user.
    Thanks for your help.

    This is a high end color network printer/copier (Canon CLC 1110).
    It is connected via ethernet to a switch thru a router (Airport Base Station) (which is connected to a cable modem).
    My computer is connected via ethernet to the switch. (Not via airport)
    I can not directly connect to the printer. Other designers need to print to it as well. They have no problems because they have not upgraded to CS4.
    My partner can connect via airport. He is on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.5.4 and CS 4.
    My issue is... Does OS 10.4.11 really work with CS4 on a G-5? (The documentation says so, but...)
    While I can run the app- I can not print from it to the network (LDP) printer.
    I can print to a bonjour printer (HP Laserjet 1320n).

  • Error -9672 when trying to add HP F380 as bonjour printer

    Not sure if this is helpful or not, but it appears the HP F380 is not compatible with the newest Airport Extreme (with all the updates). After connecting it to the Airport the Printer Setup Utility can see the printer as a bonjour printer (good) but when I go to add it as a printer it fails with a -9672 error (bad). In the console the following error message is logged.
    Error -9672, badly formatted ticket XML - Bad XMLStart:
    Bad XMLEnd
    HP says 'their printers may work, but the configuration is unsupported'. So I'm posting here in the hopes Apple will try and work around the issue in an Airport update.

    I too had the same problem with my HP F380 Printer. There is a way to get it to print over AE, but it will no scan. Here are the steps, hope it helps.
    1. Install Footmatic-Rip-3.34.2.15.ppc.dmg, espgs-7.07.1.ppc.dmg, hpijs-2.7.6.U.dmg (all found at http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs)
    4. Go to Add printer.
    5. Under "Print Using:" Select HP, then select HP DeskJet F300 Footmatic/hpijs (recommended).
    6. Click Add
    That's it.
    Be sure to install the .dmg(s) in the order listed above, no big deal but hpijs-2.7.6.U.dmg won't install without the other two.

  • Printing problems for a win xp machine

    I have a win XP machine on my airtunes network. i have tried everything under the sun including boujour, but can't send a print job from the XP machine to my printer. The printer is hooked up to the airtunes router. I have a powerbook G4 and power MAC G5 and have no problems spooling jobs to an epson 777i. I know the printer works, because i had it on the XP machine. Anyway i need some help. when in the XP machine i can see the printer on the network and it says that it is shared. When I try and print, it spools then gives me the error that there is a connection problem. I am using EZ armour on the PC (Anti virus and firewall), but I think I have the proper ports opened, because all my computers can see each other on the network.

    How do I get the printer setup utility to recognize this printer as a Generic PostScript printer? It is connected to my Airport Extreme via USB, and it appears in the Printer Setup Utility as a Bonjour printer, but there is no driver available. the "Print Using" option for "Generic PostScript Printer" is greyed out.
    This printer was working fine as a networked printer before I replaced my 802.11b setup with Airport Extreme.
