Can't add my cannon mp830 printer to mac os x

I tried to scan something using my canon mp830 but it wasnt working.  I removed the printer thinking that would help but now, I cant even add the printer.

Okay. You said that you were not able to add the printer again so my reply was based on that comment.
So with regards to scanning, Canon is no longer providing an ICA driver for this model, which is what would make the Scan tab appear in Printers & Scanner and also let you scan using Image Capture or Preview.
So as mentioned above, you will need to download and install a scanner driver for the MP830 and the supporting scanning application called MP Navigator. These should be available from the Canon web site in your region. If you cannot locate them, then reply and I will provide links from the Canon Australia web site.

  • How can I add a second display to my Mac Mini

    How can I add a second display to my Mac Mini (mid 2011). HDTV and standard monitor working simultaneously.

    True ... but that can be tricky.
    Macs can only power so much, and only through approved/proper adapters.
    Running two monitors off a single MDP-to-VGA adapter may not work, because Mac may not nicely exchange-talk the simultaneous signals.
    There is an adapter that will convert a single minidisplayport to two VGA plugs, but that adapter is $100 instead of $30 (for the single) because it has special hardware in the adapter itself to manage the two signals sinultaneously.
    Alternately ...
    Running one through the minidisplayport and one through the HDMI port makes them two separate signals to be processed.

  • Can'd add Brother hl-2070N printer

    I can't add my new Brother HL-2070N printer. It is plugged in and functional (test page prints fine when I press the button on the printer itself). I connected it to the USB port on my macbook pro with a working printer cable. I opened the printers utility, clicked "+", gave it a name, left the location unchanged (automatically selected as my local machine), selected "Brother HL-2070N series CUPS 1.1" from the "model" drop-down menu, and press "add." Then nothing. Nothing happens. I press "add" and I get no dialog box, no new printer, nothing.
    I then downloaded the drivers manually from brother's website and tried it again, but still nothing. I've restarted several times, still nothing. Help!

    Yes, I tried that. I believe there may be some sort of problem with the apple version of the driver for this printer. I have XP installed on my machine via bootcamp, and I am able to install drivers for and successfully print to the same printer using the same cable and same USB port in Windows. But I can't add the printer from OS X. Please help!

  • Can't add Canon Pixma MX310 printer with OS X 10.10.2 Yosemite

    I just got a new laptop that is running OS X Yosemite.  I have my Canon Pixma MX310 printer plugged in via USB but I can't add it.  When I go to the Add screen in preferences, in the default window, Canon MX310 series comes up.  When I select it, I have to "Choose a Driver" in order for the add button to not be greyed out.  Auto select is greyed out so I can only choose Select software which doesn't have anything for Canon or Other which is to select a downloaded driver.  Problem is, when I go to the Canon website to download the driver it says "There is no driver for the OS Version you selected. The driver may be included in your OS or you may not need a driver."  Any ideas?

  • Any ideas how can install an old Canon BJC80 printer on mac osx 10.5 can only find windows drivers on the disk or on canons website!

    Hi have just got a second hand Canon BJC-80 laptop printer and am trying to install on an imac running 10.5 I have been on the canon website and can only find drivers for windows based operating systems. Tried the add printer but nothing in the list. help.

    I think the sitation with the Canon BJC-80 is a little confused.  I think the Canon web site is confused.
    I get conflicting information. I suggest trying Gutenprint and Gimp-Print for Mac OS X. Gimp-Print is the older name for Gutenprint.
    I haven't had much luck with Gimp-Print.  Hopefully you will do better.

    Doesn't list the BJC-80 as support in Mac OS X.

  • How can I add an email account in apple mac which ends with .consulting

    We changed our email account and the domain name is .consulting. How can I add this account to my Mac mail?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous Apple ID and password to unlock the device. If you do not know the password you might be able to recover it at this link:
    https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid
    This normally will require that info is sent to the primary email address associated with the Apple ID. If you have an alternate email address assigned to that Apple ID you might get the password via the alternate email address.

  • How can i add a resolution display on a mac mini?

    hi,
    i have my mac mini currently running without a monitor connected. i control it through screen sharing from my macbook. i just suddenly had the clever idea of setting the display resolution on the mac mini to 1280x800 so i can run it full screen in my macbook.
    only problem is that this resolution is not available (or not displayed) on the display preferences on my mac mini. it only gives me 4 options and is currently running at 1280x1024 (the other options are 800x600, 1024x768 and 1680x1050)
    Is there any way i can 1280x800 resolution on the mac mini?
    Thank you.
    Al.

    Hi,
    thanks for that suggestion, looks like it should have worked but even with all its configurations it will not allow me to add the 1280x800 res to the mac mini, and yes it is completely headless. its set up to be accessed purely through screen sharing on my macbook, i intend to set it up to run a vpn also with vnc access for when i travel away.
    it seems like it should be something really simple, obviously the 1280x800 is a standard size screen!
    any more suggestions??
    thanks.
    Al.

  • Can't add my epson rx500 printer to OS 10.4, but it prints in classic

    When I added a driver for a wireless card, it told me to first reset permissions. Now OS X will not let me add my Epson rx 500 printer and I can not print from OS X. The printer does print from classic. What can I do?

    It sounds like you might have installed the OS 9 driver instead of the OS X driver. What happens when OS X will not let you add the printer?
