Canon IP1700 network connection to a windows pc how to?

I have a windows pc with an IP1700 connected to it, I want to allow my macbook to network print to the printer,
The macbook can see the ip1700 just fine, however, I does not have a driver for it.
I downloaded the diver for osx from canon, its not a driver but an install app. It works fine if i have the ip1700 connected direct to the mac, but when network connecting when its connected to the pc it demands a driver and I can not locate the driver file on my mac, I have tried to look in the package contents, no go. I looked in the printers folder of my home folder, no go. It will not work with a generic postscript driver. Im screewed.
Help!!!
Thanks

Ok, i got this to work by going to
www.printfab.net
I install the printfab application which has support for the ip1700
You can check and see if they have support for your printer.
Once its installed, you can use the windows printing tab to select your shared windows printer,
then go into the driver list and if your printer is supported it should be in there.
Please note you dont actually runt he printfab app, you just use the drivers that it installed for you for the printers it supports.
Hope this helps.

    Are you using DHCP to allocate IP addresses via your router or Static IP allocation?
    You may have an IP conflict in your network.
    Check on your various network configuration parameters in your iPad, PC and WiFi router.

    Did you reboot the TC? That is always the first step.
    Reboot the whole network if that is not enough.
    If you still have issues.. come back to us but generally the best way is to factory reset the TC and start over.
    We need a bit more info on the whole network layout and what OS you are running. What model TC you have??

  • Network Connectivity Assistant in Windows 8.1

    What happened to the Network Connectivity Assistant in Win8.1? In Win8 it would launch a "DirectAccess" dialog like the one in this blog:
    http://blog.msgeneral.nl/2012/03/direct-access-connectivity-assistant-in.html
    But in Win8.1 double-clicking and righ-clicking doesn't do anything:

    As Richard points out you can only access the NCA via the following.
    To access the DirectAccess connection properties in Windows 8.1, press
    Window Key + I, click Change PC Settings, and then click
    Network.
    Highlight Connections and click Workplace Connection.
    It is a step back for those that are used to the DCA or Win8 NCA.
    Note: also you need to have a email client enabled on the client to get the logs.
    Also there is the "Microsoft DirectAccess Client Troubleshooting Tool "

    If you haven't yet installed the Windows Support Software, that's probably why, so install it now.

  • Canon iP1700 on PC problems

    I have my Canon iP1700 printer connected to my PC running Vista and i have enabled printer sharing enabled but when i bring the printer menu it does not show up on my mac any help?

    The first thing is to ensure that both the Mac and Vista are on the same IP subnet. Th subnet is typically the first three sets of numbers in your IP address.
    The next thing is to check that both computers have the same workgroup name. Windows will usually be defaulted to workgroup unless you changed it during the installation of Vista. The Mac will not have anything set by default, so if you open your network settings and select the WINS tab, you can select or type the same name.
    With the subnets and workgroup name correctly set you should be able to select to add a Windows printer and see the Vista box after selecting the appropriate workgroup in the list. If you still do not see the PC after setting the above correctly then please reply.

  • Can't use correct driver for Canon MF4140 USB printer shared by Windows XP

    Hi all,
    I have a Canon MF4140 printer connected to my Windows XP desktop machine via USB. The printer is shared and I can see it over the network with my MacBook running OS-X 10.4.
    I've downloaded the OS-X version of the printer driver from Canon, but I can't select it when adding the printer in OS-X, so I can't access any of the printer settings. I've selected the generic driver but that doesn't allow me to do double sided or 2-up printing.
    Is this because the printer driver does not support network printing, as the printer doesn't have a network interface?

    I guess this isn't clear on the iFelix page. To use any of the built-in network printing protocols on OS X, you must either have a postscript printer (postscript printers don't require a driver, just a PPD), or a driver that works with the CUPS system (a CUPS driver). So far, Brother is the only non-postscript printer manufacturer that provides CUPS drivers. For every other non-postscript printer, you need a third-party CUPS driver. Apple tried to get around this issue by including Gimp-Print drivers (open source CUPS drivers), but your model isn't in Gimp-Print. You can look around for other CUPS drivers, but Lexmark hasn't been cooperative with driver writers. Here are the CUPS driver sources:
    http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/
    http://www.easysw.com/printpro/
    http://www.printfab.net/
    You may find it easier to share from OS X.

    Ive been having this problem for over 24 hours now. Bad bit is that I had restored my iphone just before this so ive been stuck without a mobile phone since then.
    Symptoms:
    Iphone appears in itunes but when the iphone tries to get onto the store to finish re-activation the connection hangs and then i get the error "we could not complete your itunes store request. the network connection timed out".
    I can browse the itunes music store + podcast store and i can download podcasts.
    Safari is working perfectly.
    Anything anyone can suggest would be a big help. I presume it it apple's server's fault.

  • Restoring Network Connections Error

    We are using the Lenovo IOMEGA IX2 NAS. We have around 10 users who connect to this network drive. One PC is able to connect to it but the others get a Restoring Network Connections Error:
    Microsoft Windows Network: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.
    This connection has not been restored.
    Anybody else have this issue?

    Hello jamescheung
    The affected PC's do were they actually able to mount the share(s) at any point or are you getting this error while trying to mount the share(s)?
    If they are able to mount, are you getting the error in explorer or a backup utility such as robocopy?
    Do the affected computers experience the issue right after a PC reboot?
    How many of the protocols are enabled on the ix2 and do you have media server and/or any of the active folder options enabled?  
    Have you tried to disable any non-critical protocols/features for troubleshooting?

    I was unable to download episodes from a season I purchased. It kept giving me the same "connection has been reset" error message. But I went and clicked on support under quick links in iTunes and it allowed me to start downloading from that screen. I didn't have to go into anything, it just automatically popped up that I had items to download and asked if I wanted to download them. I clicked on it, it prompted me for my password, and then started downloading them instantly.
