Canon ip5200r wifi printing not working

I have an old ip5200r canon printer.
It's been a pain over the years - each time i update my operating system i have had to update the drivers and fiddle around to get it to connect to my mac via wifi. USB printing is fine and always works.
With 10.10 however I am totally stumped. I have managed to connect the printer to the network, and the printers and scanners system preferences can see the printer and it tells me it is installed, but I am unable to print.
My partner often uses the printer and constantly complains about walking around the house and plugging  a USB cable in. It should be so easy, I am unsure why canon make it so hard.
I was wondering if anyone could offer any possible insight or recommendation?

If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

  • Canon MP 600 Printer not working after Leopard Install

    I installed the Leopard OS and now my Canon MP 600 printer that purchased at the MAC store with my Mac in Aug of this year. It was working properly prior to the Leopard install. I tried re-installing the printer drivers, but no change. I can see my MP 600 as the only printer available. I am also unable to even print a 'test' page. When I run the Network Diagnostics everything is fine, but no printing.
    Any suggestions?

    I tried this. I also tried updating the CUPS config file as was noted elsewhere. The printer is a total no-show on Leopard.
    It is being served by an older G4 whose only job is to serve the printer.
    On Tiger it would just *be there* to print to. All the Panther computers see it as a "shared printer" in the printer box.
    In Leopard.... not a &^^&% thing.
    Not happy.

    Are you using a gimp driver? I had the same issue and gimp was the cause. I went to the Canon website and found the driver I needed. After the install and restart all was well. In fact, when I opened Print Utility, I saw that the system had already defaulted to the new Canon driver. Here's the Canon link...

  • Why is my Canon IPF 5100 printer not working on my new iMac intel

    I just purchased a new iMac and within a few days, my IPF 5100 printer stopped working. I contacted Canon's service department and
    they had no idea how to fix the problem. They said it was most likely a USB port problem. They mentioned that this problem was
    occurring more and more often with the iMac's.
    Well, the customer service person from Canon said they would call me back, and I haven't heard from them yet.
    Hello Canon and Macintosh, my printer plays an important part in my photography business.
    What's up!
    Anyone else with a IPF 5100 having this problem?
    Greg

    Are you sure it's an IPF 5100, if so it's not supported by Snow Leopard per:

  • I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...

    I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...
    Also, when im viewing websites and i find something i wish to print, same again, if i simply click on the print option at the top right of the screen nothing happens... the only way I can print is if i copy the weblink of the site page then click on my HP eprint app and paste the web link, then select print, it prints off fine.. but its it such a pain to keep copying and pasting links or screen dumping emails just to print...

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!

  • Printer not working following iPad uodate

    Printer not working following iPad upgrade

    Hi,
    Is the printer not mechanically working or are you having a problem with printing wirelessly from your device? Was the upgrade to the ipad software or did you get a new ipad?
    Try restarting your apple device - It's a simple fix that sometimes helps re-establish the connection to the printer.
    Other things to check would be that there have been no recent changes to the wifi password.

  • Wifi Sync not working on iOS 6 and iTunes 10.7 with iPhone 4S

    I am running Windows 7 64-bit but WiFi Sync is not working on either my iPhone 4S or my wife's iPhone 4S.  Worked fine before upgrading.  All settings look correct in iTunes 10.7 and on our iPhones 4S's.  Already tried uninstalling iTunes and all associated Apple programs (Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc) and reinstalling iTunes but no help.  Temporarily disabling Norton Firewall did not help.  If I hook up either of our two 4S phones via USB wire, they Sync and Backup fine.  Just WiFi Sync not working.  Can't initiate sync from iPhones because button is ghosted stating it is waiting for PC to be present.  Phones don't show up under Devices in iTunes unless hard-wired via USB cable.  Any suggestions?

    I am getting sync issues too (although on OSX) - seems like others are getting issues too:

  • My iPod Touch 3rd gen is screwed up the backlights screwed and the Wifi is not working its showing no wifi! What should i do??

    My iPod Touch 3rd gen is screwed up the backlights screwed and the Wifi is not working its showing no wifi!

    See:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    For backlight
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                  
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                     
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router.  Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right?  Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.
