Cannon Printer MP560 Series

I use a Cannon MP560 Series printer for my MacBook Pro and suddenly I'm receiving a "communication error has occurred" when I go to print.  We checked every connection and all appears to be in order; plus visually the printer is on and has power.  Any suggestions on what I'm missing?

In order to use MP Navigator with a wireless device you have to change the Prefernces. So with MP Navigator open, click the Preferences button and then select the General tab. In the field labelled Product Name, you need to drop this menu to show the MP560 that is networked - this will be the one with the alphanumeric characters shown as part of the name, as per the example below for my MP990.
With the networked MP560 selected you can then click OK to close the Preferences window and then see if you can scan with MP Navigator.

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''

  • MG series 5320 Cannon printer, error code 6000 appears, can't get rid of it

    Cannon Printer MG5320, Error code appears, can't get rid of it??  can anyone help

    Hi ikovach10,
    To try and resolve the error, if any object is placed in front of the machine, please remove it.  Next, please open the paper output tray gently, then turn the power off and back on.  If the error still appears, please turn off the machine, unplug the power cord from the power supply and leave it unplugged for 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn it back on.  If the error persists, the printer will require servicing..  Please call or email us using one of the methods on the Contact Us page for servicing options available to you.

  • I am unable to print PDF's using either Adobe Reader or Safari. In Adobe Reader, I get an error message from my Cannon printer that says, "/usr.libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed". In Safari, I can only print the first page of a PDF.

    To try to resolve this problem, I have done the following actions.
    1 - I have run Disk Warrior.
    2 - I have repaired permissions.
    3 - I have deleted all plist that are either Cannon or Adobe.
    4 - I have downloaded and installed the lastest versions of Adobe Reader and the Cannon printer drivers.
    I am still unable to print PDF's.
    In Safari, I can print only the first page. In a multipage PDF, Safari only seems to recognize the first page.
    In Adobe Reader, I get an error message from my printer: "/usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed".
    Any help would be greatly appreicated!

    Quit Safari.
    Open the Library folder in your home folder as follows:
    ☞ If running OS X 10.7 or later, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar.
    ☞ If running an older version of OS X, select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar and copy the line below into the text box that opens:
    ~/Library
    Delete the following items from the Library folder:
    Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
    Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
    Relaunch Safari and test.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Select "/var/log/cups/error_log" from the file list. Post the messages from the time of the last printing attempt.
    Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.

  • How do I make my Cannon Printer MP250work with my new iMac?

    Just bought the iMac, and I need to use my old Cannon printer. Plugged it in and the printer is not responding. Is this a device driver issue, software,etc.?

    I visited Cannon, downloaded the driver/software for PIXMA MP250 but the printer will not respond when I click print.

  • IPhoto '08 no longer prints to Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3

    I installed iLife '08 last week. Used iPhoto '08 for the first time today. It will not longer print to the Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3 photo printer. I get the message that the "Cartridge and tray type do not match."
    I called Kodak. They have never seen this error message before. They had me update the EasyShare software because it is connected to iPhoto in the background when it comes to printing. Everything prints perfectly from the EasyShare software but it still will not print from iPhoto '08. It did from the previous versions.
    Kodak believes that it is an iPhoto problem.
    Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem yet. I didn't find any when I did a search.
    It's kind of silly to export a photo from iPhoto to EasyShare just to print.
    thanks...

    I was having the same problem with my Kodak Photo Printer 300, except that I could not print from ANY app other than Preview (I have iPhoto '08 also, but I never used the printer with an older version so I don't know if the problem happened after I upgraded iLife). I was able to work around the problem by using "4x6" as the paper size instead of "L-size." Hope this helps.

  • Cannon printer mp480

    I bought my mac pro 3-5 years ago right before the 10.6 update.  I ordered a cannon printer mp480 it was free at the time with my mac pro. It sat in the box for a few years, I just opened it a few months ago. Can it be used with the IOS 10.6?  I'm reading online where it's not compatable... now i know why they may have been giving them away:)
    I can use the copier, but not the scanner or printer.  I can't print anything off of the internet or my computer.  Please help direct me if you can...
    Thank you,
    OC103

    You could ask Canon. You could check for driver updates at their web site and/or you could install this driver update:

  • Cannon printer/scanner image class mf4150

    can I install my cannon printer/fax/scanner image class MF4150 to my IMAC OS X Mountain Lion?

    Hi Glenn!
    I will be glad to assist you.
    It appears that one of the buttons on the control panel may be sticking and causing the error.  I recommend powering off the machine and unplugging it from the wall.  Once the unit is unplugged, press all of the buttons on the control panel, starting left to right, one at a time.  Next, plug the machine back in and power it on. 
    I hope this information is helpful to you.  If the error persists, I recommend that you contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666) for further assistance.

  • My HP wireless Photosmart Printer D110 series shows connected to network, my HP laptop shows offline

    HP laptop Pavilion dv6-3210us PC shows my HP Wireless Photosmart Printer D110 series will not recognize each other.  Had worked well for past 6 months after I bought printer.  I have a new Internet provider  - could that give problems?  It did work for a while, but now my laptop says the printer is offline and it  isn't.  The printer says it's connected to the network.  (windows 7 operating system.  I cannot print anything, why?

    If you have a new router you may have to re-install the printer.  Is your router new or just your modem?
    In the mean time, download and run this utility: http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Nav?h_pagetype=s-926&h_lang=en&h_client=s-h-e17-1&h_keyword=dg-NDU&ju...

  • Cancel Printing of series of photos

    How do I cancel printing a series of photos on HP Photosmart 7760?  I'm using Windows XP and need to print a document..
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The easiest way is to just press the cancel "X" button on the printer.  Printing will stop, although the compter will continue to send the print job until it is done.  This may take a minute or two to complete.
