Canon Drivers

I called Apple tech support and they said there are no drivers available for the MP620. I've seen several people here say that there is a driver now available from Canon. Who is right?
Can someone please post a link to an available driver if there is one? I can't find it. Apple is telling my my only option if I want to print is to erase my hard drive and re-install 10.5.

1. It should, perhaps, but that would depend on Canon getting their driver to Apple to put on their Update server. Maybe it will happen, but it will not be as fast as going to the Canon site.
2. Apple tech support is primarily responsible for Apple products. Again, they may get the word from Canon, but expect it to take a while.
3. It should help you print with this printer, You should just have to install it, and maybe add the printer in again. Check the driver version in Options & Supplies in Print & Fax. There may be a network upgrade available as well, which you should install as well if you need it.

New Canon drivers available on UK site, but not in the US site?

Just got a new MP970, and was looking for downloadable drivers on the US site, and found nothing. But heading to the UK site I found the MP Navigator, drivers for the MP970 and more. I'm not sure why but if anyone needs Canon drivers, check out the UK site.

Canon USA is notorious for poor customer support in the area of drivers, especially for the Mac. I have owned a Canon iPF5000 for just about a year now and have found it necessary to get my drivers from Canon Europe, Canon Canada and Canon Japan.

10.6.2 Canon drivers

Prior to the 10.6.2 software update, I had updated the printer drivers for my Canon ip6700d and MP830 form Canon's site. Yesterday I ran the 10.6.2 software update which shows driver versions of 10.26.1.0, but both printers still show 10.26.0.0 driver version. What did I do incorrectly?

I got a new Mini, 2.53, a couple of weeks ago and have a Canon MX850. I downloaded the latest drivers from the Canon Website after emailing them and asking precisely which driver I should download for SL.
Software Update shows the new drivers for me but gives no further information and Canon has not posted anything new in the past 6 weeks.
Personally I'd really like to know what and why I'm installing something rather just blindly following Apple saying I should do it.
Is there way to find out what this new driver update is for? The Apple website gives absolutely no information on this.

Cannot print borderless printing from illustrator - prints fine from photoshop. I've updated canon drivers but didn't help.

After buying a new imac and upgrading to lion, then upgrading to illustrator I cannot print borderless on my canon printer. It prints borderless fine from photoshop. I have installed the new drivers from canon through apple but that didn't help. It shows borderless in the print window but continues to leave a border when printing. Any suggestions?

Hi there misterglenn,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps for printer issues found in the article below.

Removing Canon drivers to uninstall?

Greetings,
I recently switched from hp 7350 printer to Canon Pixma MP450.
I made the mistake of using the enclosed cd to install the needed software, instead of going to their site and downloading the most recent drivers.
They recommended uninstalling all drivers before reinstalling the updated ones.
My question is:
Since this Canon product is the only one I have, is it best to just do a search in the finder>applications (and utilities) for anything Canon and 450 and move all to the trash? Then reinstall?
Is there anything else I should do?
When I did search >drivers..I found all kinds of packages of other manufacturers which I haven't owned and wonder where they came from as well.
Thanks!

I have 1 guy that uses an MX920.
This is the driver I am using.

Fellow Spiceheads,
I have run into an interesting issue that I cannot seem to find an easy way around. The issue is that a User is wanting a Canon MX920 to work with RDS Printer Redirection and there is no current driver in Windows Update that supports the MX900 Series.
I have tried using Canon's Universal .infs but unfortunately their universal drivers are only for business printers. I have tried manually running their driver installer but it insists on finding the printer before it will install any drivers. They do not provide an .inf file for manual install that I can find. I have tried copying the driver files from the Client Computer to the driver store but it does not work because it wants the Client Software Installed.
Do you guys have any ideas how to get the drivers installed or make it work? The funny part about this entire...

Installing Windows 7 Professional 64 bit drivers för Canon MF8330 Cdn printer/fax/scanner

Hi!
After Windows update in april 2014 I cant any longer use the scanning funktion via network from Canon MF8330 Cdn multifunktion printer/fax/scanner machine! It worked fine Before the april Windows update installation.
I have reinstalled with Canons driver kit 2005b för Windows 7 64 bit. All works fine until the scanner installation ends, then system report that it cannot install the scanner and I have to try installing again. I have done that now several times but it
helps not. I Think it has something to do with that the Canon scanner drivers isn´t 64 bit files, or the problem is that windows update has replaces saome dll file to a never version that not work with Canon drivers.
I have seen that there is a service pack 1 from Canon för Windows 8 and 8,1, can I use that service pack to get a never dll file for scanner or work this only for windows 8 version.
Have someone a solution to this! I have contacted the Canon support already and they say that its a Microsoft problem!
Very thanful for help in this case!
Greetings

Hi!
I am installing the drivers from Canons site. It is the newest version 2005b for Windows 7 64 bit to MF8330Cdn Canon multifunction printer/fax/scanner. Installation goes well for the printer and fax but not for scanner drivers. The error message is Could
not install the scanner. In device manager is there then a unknown device under Image devices. In Device Manager I try to update drivers, but it does not help either, error message is access denied. I am logged on the system with administrator account, therfore
it is strange that I get the error message access denied.
I tried earlier to do system restore back to previous time, but it did not work, error was that the system could not do the system restore because of access rights.
is there anything else I could do.
Here is the MF36SCN.inf file for scanner installation from Canon, if it can help You to go further with the problem. Is there something strange in the inf file that does not work in Windows 7 64 bit Windows, something shows that ther is also same 32 bits
parts in the inf file.
Greetings

Need to install Canon Network Printer drivers on server...?

I am about to add a Canon PIXMA iP5200R network printer to my intranet via its Ethernet connection. I have configured and tested printing sucessfully from my PowerBook G4 directly to the printer via my intranet after installing the necessary drivers and software from Canon.
Now I will like to use Mac OS X Server running on my Xserve G5 to manage the printer, and I do have some questions pertaining to this:
First question: since I don't think Canon supplies any PPD file for most of its printers, do I need to install the iP5200R drivers and Canon IJ Network Utility on the Xserve?
Second question: is there a Command Line Interface for Printer Setup Utility, or their relevant commands in CUPS, or do I need to use ARD to get the GUI of Printer Setup Utility on my Xserve?
Third question: after using the GUI or CLI of Printer Setup Utility to setup the printer on the server side, will this appear in WGM when I bring up the window to add a new Print Queue in Print service?
Fourth question: according to the Apple Print Service Documentation, if I share the Print Queue via IPP (I will only be turning this protocol on) and I have installed the Canon drivers and software on all the Mac (client) computers on the intranet, then I can use specific features of the Canon printer (such as direct CD/DVD Labeling), assuming if the Mac computers select this Print Queue via their Printer Setup Utility?
Fifth question: this Canon iP5200R printer has the ability to allow only certain computers to send print jobs to the printer via a table of either MAC ID or IP addresses, so if I enable this feature on the printer and limit to print jobs coming from the server only, I should be able to prevent user from bypassing the server to print, assuming I am also locking down the selection of printers in Print Setup using WGM?

HT204135 why does my Canon Selphy cp 800 printer not show up in printer drivers?

Hi
I have an selphy cp 800. I tried to instal the Lion driver But no luck. i Bought this printer before i upgraded, and I am a bit frustrated that Apple or Canon doesent care.
Lion has been out for a year soon, and there is stil no update for lion os with a cp-800 printer driver?
Hope some one can help me My os is now 10.7.04
regards

Interesting Matt. So no version of the Gutenprint CP800 driver ever worked?
That is my current, best understanding. There is a relatively new maintiner for the Canon code at Gutenprint. He has done a lot of work over the past year or so. One of the things I think he discovered is that there were certain Selphy printers that need an "intelligent spooler". That is, they won't work with a standard USB backend. I think the Gutenprint driver tried to trick CUPS--and may have had some success--by sending image data in one packet and control data in another. It was something like that.
It would be fairly easy to see if they work by loading the 5.1.3 or just about any version prior to about 5.2.7 and test the printer. All the packages are still on the server at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-print/files/. That exercise may not be the best idea for the original poster at this point as there is a Canon supported driver available.
I'm reasonably sure that there was no Canon CP800 driver included with Leopard
I just went back and loaded the Canon drivers in a Leopard installation from the Leopard install disk. The Selphy drivers go up to CP-790. There is no CP-800 that came with Leopard.

Unable to uninstall canon printer drivers

I just installed canon drivers which come in a bundle of unnecessary drivers and take up a lot of memory spaces

Do you want the application “ccpd” to accept incoming network connections?

The alerts are caused by the built-in firewall. If you're on a private network behind a router, the firewall serves no purpose and you should disable it. Otherwise, see below.
Please open the Security & Privacy preference pane and select the Firewall tab. Click the lock icon to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the button marked
          Firewall Options...
In the sheet that opens, the box marked
          Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections
should be checked.
If the applications that you're having trouble with is on the list above that checkbox and is blocked, change the setting to
          Allow incoming connections
If the application is not on the list, add it with the same setting.
If it's already on the list and already allowed, delete the entry, then add it back.
Click OK. Test. If there's no change, ask for further instructions.

Cannot install Canon MX700 Printer Drivers

I have tried to install from the CDROM that came with the printer, it failed with both the "Easy" and the "Custom" installs, with the error message:
MP Drivers could not be installed. Click [Start Over] to reexecute the installation process. That also fails, and I decided to break out of the infinite loop of starting over again and again by posting this message.
I also tried the suggestions as to how to correct installation problems, such as trying to install with an administrator account, and having no other apps running. These did not work; this is good because this isn't Windows after all.
Furthermore, I downloaded the drivers from the Canon USA site
http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=SupportDeta ilTabAct&fcategoryid=238&modelid=15651&kbpage=yes#DownloadDetailAct
but no joy with 6.9.3 nor with the CUPS 10.1.2 either. Both report failure with: The following install step failed: run preflight script for Canon IJ Printer Driver. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. I wondered if I was alone with this problem with OS X 10.5.6?

I think you will find this is not an issue with 10.5.6, but rather something about your Mac setup that is stopping the installer from working correctly.
Try the following procedure for repairing faulty installations of the Canon drivers.
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax. Highlight the Canon printer in the Printer list and click the minus ( - ) button.
2. Hold Control key and click in the empty Printers list. Click on Reset Printing System.
3. Close Print & Fax
4. Go to Library > Printers > Canon and delete the contents of the BJPrinter folder.
5. Go to Library > Receipts and delete the Canon driver package file, if one exists. The file name will show Canon MX700 xxx.pkg
6. Go to Library > Preferences and delete the Canon folder.
7. Empty the Trash
8. Unplug the Canon USB cable and restart the Mac
9. Install the version 6.9.3 Canon driver that you downloaded. You don't need the CUPS v10.1.2 driver or any version on the included CDROM.
10. Once the driver installation is complete, go to Applications > Utilities and open Disk Utility. Run the Repair Disk Permissions option.
11. Reconnect the Canon USB cable. Then open Print & Fax and see if the Canon printer is listed. If it is, try a test print.
12. If the printer is not listed, click the plus ( + ) button.
13. Select the Default view and select the Canon printer connected via the USB port. The Print Using menu should automatically change to Canon IJ Printer.
14. Click Add to add the printer.

Need to download drivers for canon MP 280 for macbook pro

I need to download drivers for canon MP 280 for macbook pro how do i go ...

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
As you can see, that printer is compatible > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
To get the drivers for that printer, you just have to add the printer to OS X, following these steps > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11145 OS X will download automatically the driver for your printer after adding it to the printer list. Or you can download the Canon drivers from the Apple website > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899
You don't need to get drivers from the Canon website. The Apple drivers are sufficient to make the printer work, although you may find software in the Canon website that you may want

Leopard-Searching for new drivers: Canon iP5000

I have recently installed Leopard. When I try to print I get a box stating that no printer is selected. I go to Add Printer . . . and another window pops up with a list and there is my Canon iP5000/USB. When I select it I get a message in the window that says "searching for new drivers" and the spinning gear goes for awhile and then just blinks. I tried installing the Canon driver update from Nov but that did not work. Can anyone help me?

I had the exact same problem, although my printer is an iP1500. I tried everything listed here, except the Gimp drivers, to no avail.
When the spinning gear froze on the Add Printer window, I opened the Activity Monitor, double clicked on the Add Printer process and listed open files. I realized that there were a lot of open EPSON driver files. I found this strange, since I have no EPSON printers anywhere in my network. I assumed that something else was interfering with the driver search process.
I solved the problem by doing the following:
- sudo mv /Library/Printers /Library/Printers_Orig
- mkdir /Library/Printers
- chmod 775 /Library/Printers
- mv /Library/Printers_Orig/Canon/ /Library/Printers/
In essence, the above instructions remove everything except the Canon drivers from the location which the Add Printer application uses to search. When I tried again, the correct driver was almost immediately loaded.
My guess is that the Add Printer application searches everything in the Printers directory and that some other driver (EPSON maybe?) is either corrupt or conflicts somehow with the Canon printer. By leaving only the relevant drivers, the problem goes away.
