Cannot seem to add my Kodak printer...

I have a Kodak printer and when trying to add it to my new Mac, it says to contact manufacturer for latest software. does anyone know how to install a printer this way?

OS X Mountain Lion and OS X Lion systems will have the necessary printing software already installed, or will automatically download and install software when the printer is connected or configured. Do not install software that came with the printer as it may be out of date, and do not connect the printer to your Mac yet. Follow the instructions that came with the printer to unpack, install ink or toner, and insert paper.  Finally, use the instructions in this article to connect the printer to your Mac.
Make sure the printer model is listed in Printer and scanner software, which is a comprehensive list of all printer models that have compatible software for OS X Mountain Lion and OS X Lion.

  • My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    The appearance of the printer in the Default view of the Add printer window relies on a protocol called Bonjour. There have been quite a few users who upgraded to Yosemite only to find that their wifi printer is no longer visible. Until Apple resolves this issue you can add your printer using the LPD protocol. To do so you will need to determine the IP address being used by the MX890. This can be done via the touch panel under Device Settings > Network Settings.
    Once you learn the IP address then on the Mac you can click to add the printer and select the IP icon. Here you can enter the IP address, set the Protocol to Line Printer Deamon and leave the Queue field blank. Then change the name to Canon MX890 and in the Use menu, browse for the Canon MX890 series driver. Then click Add to complete the printer creation.

  • HT4356 I have a wireless kodak printow to add my kodak printer to my iPad 2. Thank you.

    I have a wireless kodak printer, series 5250,  however it's not listed for compatibility with AirPrint. Please could you tell me how to add my printer to my iPad 2. Thank you.

    No. You don't do it that way.
    Kodak's options are to partner with Google documents. I didn't dig too deeply into it because I didn't need another online account, but I believe you create a google ID, then you can upload and then download your files to be printed to a hardwired computer (for example, have your desktop hardwired to your printer, upload the document from your iPad, which will then download it onto the the desktop which serves as a local print server)
    Another option - if the printer supports it - would be to e-mail your document to your printer.
    The other option is hte third party app. I purchased print n share, installed it on my ipad. Then when I want to print, I open the app, select my document, e-mail or web page, then print from within the app.
    You don't download a driver to your iPad, that's how ipads differ from regular computers. They don't have a file manager system, which is why you can't just install software and make the ipad print.

  • Cannot seem to add more then 4 audio tracks

    Hi everyone, I'm a new logic user and I just can't seem to add more then four audio tracks. If I keep going "track>create with next instrument" I seem to only add buses. I've been searching for answers in Orren Merton's "Logic Pro 7 Power" but I still can't seem to find an answer. Hope someone can help me, thanks in advance.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Highlight one of the audio tracks, then in that same menu in the arrange window, select "Create Multiple..." then it will ask you how many you need....
    If that doesn't do it, come back here for further instruction.

  • I cannot seem to add the search bar which should be located next to the address bar. it was removed when I updated one of the last times.

    I have been trying to figure out why this search bar where you type in keywords for a google search had been removed during one of the beta updates, but this is quite annoying to not have.

    Hello,
    Sometimes toolbars are missing because they are hidden, you just need to bring them back up. Visit this article to learn how to bring them back: [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]]. You can learn tips and tricks at the same time.

    Thank you.
    Sometimes the time and date is wrong on your device causing that error message to appear.
    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • I download to two computers but cannot seem to add movies from both.  Please help.

    I sometimes download from the itunes store to my laptop, and other times to my desktop.  When I try to upload a movie from my laptop, I get the message that the movies I downloaded from my desktop will be deleted.  I have selected manage manually.  I have shared my computer.  I have selected family sharing.  I have tried to connect to the library on my laptop.  What will work?  The only solution is to download onto my desktop and always copy from there.  That is not what I want to do.

    Click here and pick the option which best fits your situation.

  • User can't seem to add a second email account

    I have a client whose device has until now activated on a BESX.  He now has a Z10.  He managed to get his email account added using Exchange & Active-Sync as email, contacts and appointments is really about the only things they need.
    The user with the Z10 cannot seem to add his personal account to the phone.  He has spoken with a Blackberry technician, (don't know how that was done without paying for it.) and he was told that although his Z10 is not activated on their BESX it is still using it and Blackberry Balance needs to be enabled for him to be able to add a personal account.
    I can't understand how that will work if it's not activated on the BESX let alone the version of BESX doesn't seem to have Blackberry Balance available as it's 5.0.2, and the Z10's aren't supposed to activate unless it's a BES10 server.
    Wondering if the data plan is set for a BES which might be preventing addition of personal accounts without first being activated on a BES.  However if that was the case then the account he got setup probably shouldn't have worked.
    I haven't even seen one of the Z10's so I have no idea how to walk him through instructions on adding a personal account.  I believe he is trying to add a GMail account which also is giving peopel a hard time.

    May or may not be  helpful...but I had the same problem on my Z10.  Make sure on the second account the 'SMPT Username' and 'Update SMTP Password' fields are blank. 
    When setting  up my second account these fields were auto-populated and I had to wipe them out in order for it to work. 

  • I print a lot if photography from iPhoto. I once found a way to proint a matte around the photo, but cannot seem to remember how I did it.

    I know my post is rather lengthy. I have a Mac Air and am running Mavericks. I print a lot of photography. One day I discovered that I could print  mattes surrounding the image and loved that option. I have not done that for a while and cannot seem to remember how I did it. Can anybody help my aging memory and remind me how to do this?
    Thanks.

    In iPhoto '11 is the "Matte" effect in the Edit panel, in the "Effects" tab. You could simply create a second version of the photo for printing with the command "Photos> duplicate" and then add the matte effect from the "Edits > Effect > Matte" panel. Then print the edited version and delete it.
    You can change the size of the effect using the arrow keys.

  • I cannot sign into iCloud on my iMac.  I have read all of the help information, but that isn't working.  I cannot do anything with my system preferences - like add a new printer - because it won't log me in, sign me out, forget password doesn't work, etc.

    I have been unable to log in to iCloud on my iMac.  None of the hints online have worked.  I can't sign in (with any password), sign out, the forget password doesn't work, the support button doesn't work.  It's locked.  I can't find anyway to fix this - I need to add a new printer ASAP - help!!!

    The "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" window popped up a couple of weeks ago and is asking for my Apple ID password, which it will not accept,  It won't sign me out (I am not logged in), the support or forgot password buttons won't work.  With this window stuck open, I cannot access anything on system preferences.  I can't find any way to make it go away.  I have tried both my current and old Apple ID passwords, tried using FaceTime to login with the newer password, etc.

    How do I add to a folder in word. I cannot seem to drag it into it. Thanks.

  • I cannot seem to get the 'text' I am using to add an effect, help please

    I cannot seem to get the 'text' to be able to add an effect, it will only add the effect to the box the text is in

    Use system font, or al least one blank in system font. In this case you can use effects, because systemfonts are rendered as an image.
    Using web or web safe fonts it is momentarily impossible to use effects on text.

  • I cannot get my kodak printer to print . it prints test paige but does not print documents

    i cannot get my kodak printer to print documents . its prints test paige

    Kodak has posted an unsupported hack that has been reported to enable printing to a Kodak printer not supported in OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"). Perhaps it would have the same effect with some other kinds of printers that aren't supported in Yosemite.
    I have not tested the hack myself. As far as I know it will not break the compatibility of printing software that is already compatible with Yosemite. It may degrade the security of the printing system. It's up to you to decide whether that risk is worth taking.

  • Cannot send photos via bluetooth to Kodak printer machine

    Cannot send photos via bluetooth to Kodak printer machine.
    My iphone cannot find the machine and I was told that htis is an apple problem

    Cannot send photos via bluetooth to Kodak printer machine.
    Correct. iPhone doesn't support Bluetooth File Transfer protocol.
    Many photo machines let you plug in a camera via USB, so do that instead. The iPhone will appear as a standard digital camera.
