Canon iR1025if is printing garbage with latest driver.  What am I doing wrong?

I have an iMac with OS X 10.9 installed on release day (10/22).  Ever since I upgraded I am not able to print "perfect" PDF files from Preview or Skim.  Files generated using LaTeX and some special fonts print "garbage" or blanks with a Canon iR1025if. 
The printer was working fine under 10.8 and the (then) latest Canon driver.  After I upgraded to 10.9, I kept getting errors when I tried to print something, so I uninstalled printer and old driver, installed new driver, and reinstalled the printer (following directions found here in the Apple Support Cummunities).  I could then print again, but every time I use some different (math) fonts, such as Arev Sans, it either prints garbage, boxes or blanks instead of the text.  See the picture attached.  When the PDF is printed under Adobe Acrobat Reader, it comes out exactly as on screen.
Notice that the same PDF on screen is correct, while the printed version is full of garbage.  Other fonts generate similar problems.
Any ideas how to fix this?  I'd appreciate any help.

Hello MLO_BR,
It looks like you are getting some anomolies when printing from these programs, and mulitple fonts are affected. I would recommend the troubleshooting found in this article named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

  • Message "this app is not compatible with this iPad" What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to update my apps and when I touch update all I get the message 'this app is ot compatible with this I-pad.  this has never happened before, what am I doing wrong?

    One or more of the apps you are updating is seeing that you have not yet gone to ios5.  All the iwork app changes, for example, will not upgrade until you do.   What you can do is tick them individually.  If that particular app will update, then it will.  If it won't it will tell you, and you can go back and get them later after you do the ious 5 update.  Last night i decided to update before i started the ios 5 upgrade, and there were 16 apps waiting for up date.  All but 5 did update, but not the i works, and 2 others.
    It takes a little longer to do them 1 at a time, but it is better than staring at the stupid 'not eligable' notice.

    RETURN v_ComputeFreight;
    end "ComputeFreight";
    -----------------------------------

    You have made at least 2 errors.
    The first one is the name of your function:
    create or replace function "ComputeFreight" (You use double quotas and the mixed case in the function name - it means you
    make your function name case-sensitive. In the call of your function you have to use double-quoted form "ComputeFreight", nothing else.
    If you your function name has to be case-insensitive, don't use double quotas or
    use upper-case form: "COMPUTEFREIGHT".
    The next mistake is how your call you function. You have to do the following:
    var V_ComputeFreight number
    EXEC :V_ComputeFreight := <your function name>
    V_ComputeFreight is a bind variable and you have to read more about this.
    Rgds.
    P.S. and as Dave fairly remarked above you have to pass the argument into the function.

    I had some time to give the connected volume stuff another look, so I tweaked the script a little. This latest version will handle getting the users from local or connected volumes as well as connected accounts. I threw in some labels in the choice dialog so you can see what the volumes are, and changed the time stamp a little to avoid using either the POSIX or Finder path delimiters.

  • New computer -- can't find music on external drive - what am i doing wrong?

    I have searched previous posts and cannot seem to find an answer.
    Up until recently, I ran iTunes from my desktop, and housed the music on an external hard drive. Recently, I purchased a new laptop and transferred applications and files over from the desktop using Windows Easy Transfer.
    I thought that simply pointing my laptop to the iTunes Music Folder location on the external hard drive was all I needed to do (F:\iTunes\MyMusic) but I seem to be mistaken, as I am getting the “iTunes cannot find the original files” messages when I click to play songs.
    Have I missed something incredibly obvious here? I’ve been futzing around with this for a while now and tend to think I am missing the easy fix.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

    Thank you for your response. The drives are in fact different letters -- I changed the drive name to correspond the original drive letter...but that doesn't seem to have fixed the problem.
    Where I seem to stand is:
    Old computer (with iTunes library) + external hard drive (with iTunes music) work just fine.
    New computer -- iTunes library copied from old computer, iTunes music folder identified in iTunes, but iTunes can't find the music.
    At this point, am I better off starting from scratch with the new computer (in terms of installing iTunes and moving my library over from my old computer)?
    And if so, what would be the best way to approach this?
    Thanks much.

  • Trying to share a usb hard drive, what am I doing wrong?

    Okay, finally got myself the new airport extreme. Plugged in all the cables, installed the software supplied on cd, ran the software update and installed the necessary updates.
    Then turned on the airport extreme, waited for the status LED to go green and it did.
    Configured the airport extreme on my iMac, Leopard 10.5.2 and the internet worked perfectly fine.
    So far so good, now,
    Connected the Lacie 160 GB portable drive. The drive has two partitions, 1 is Mac OS Format, 1 is Win32. The problem is I cannot see these partitions in Finder or as a shared drive. If I open the Airport Utility, I can find these two partitions and they have been shared. But i still can't access them from Finder.
    What am I missing? Any help for me plz ?
    Thanks, Pj

    That disk should be fine, I have a similar external that has no power, powered only by the USB port. Mine works fine so should yours.
    Okay so if you go into Airport Utility and then under manual, click on the Disks, does the disk show up in the list? Under File sharing is the box checked to enable file sharing?
    One more question, what is the disk formatted as? Only Fat32 or Mac Os Extended will work.

  • Some websites do not display properly. I am getting overlapping of menu's. This does not happen with IE. What am I doing wrong?

    I log on to the same wesite on Mozilla and IE. On mozilla the left hand menu overlaps one over the other but the same does not occur with IE, I ask this as I prefer mozilla. Do I need to change any configuration setting. I have a Dell Studio Laptop which is only about 5 months old. Unfortunately I cant post the url because it needs a password to get into the site.

  • Photos from Win XP will not Sync with 3G iphone what am I doing wrong

    Need some help, just got the iphone and the only thing I can't understand is how to transfer my photos from my PC to the phone. I understand I use Itunes and point it to the folder/photo I want to sync. Itunes goes through it optimizing 1 of 29 photos (only doing 29 photos to start) but then when I go to the phone I have the normal Camera Roll Album and one folder listed. In the folder listed is only one photo which is all messed up.
    I understand the phone takes photos and displays photos at one res, and I thought Itunes doesn't care what res the photo from the PC is cause it optimizes it to be viewed on the phone.
    What am I missing ? and what is this folder that keeps being built ipod photo cache. Any help would be wonderful and yes I did read the "Iphone User Guide" that came with the phone.

    Not sure what the issue is that you are having. Sounds like you are doing the right thing.
    You point iTunes to a folder that contains pictures (or more subfolders that contain pictues...1 subfolder deep). Then tell it to sync. iTunes does its "optimize" thing. Then they sync over. Each subfolder in that folder you pointed to becomes a library.
    eg:
    C:\PHOTOS you point it to.
    C:\PHOTOS\FAMILY
    C:\PHOTOS\WORK
    C:\PHOTOS\FRIENDS
    C:\PHOTOS\WALLPAPER
    C:\PHOTOS\MISC
    are all under it.
    Each of those becomes a library on the iPHone (Family, Work, friends, etc)
    Photos from those folders go to phone (and photos from the root you pointed it to).
    The extra folder it makes (think it tries to mark it hidden unless you have it set to show hidden files) is just stuff for iTunes to keep track (like HASH data and other stuff) to know what it has synced so it can tell what is new and what is old if you add more photos or folders later.
    I have some huge images on my PC that I sync over without issue. iTunes scales them down when syncing to the phone (the whole optimize stuff).

  • Cannot set up Mail with GoDaddy Account, what am I doing wrong?I

    I searched the correct way to do this through GoDaddy, my hosting service and got these directions, which I have tried, but didn't work.
    *To Set Up Apple Mail for SMTP Relay
    1. From the Mail menu, click Preferences.
    2. In the Preferences window, click Accounts.
    3. In the Account window, click Account Information.
    4. From the Account Type list, select POP.
    5. In the Description field, type a name for the account.
    6. In the Email Address field, type your email address.
    7. In the Your Name field, type your full name.
    8. In the Incoming Mail Server field, type pop.secureserver.net.
    9. In the User Name field, type your user name (your full email address).
    10. In the Password field, type the password to your email account.
    11. In the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) field, type smtpout.secureserver.net.
    12. In the SMTP Server Options window, in the Outgoing Mail Server field, type smtpout.secureserver.net.
    13. In the Authentication field, type your password.
    14. In the Server Port field, type 80 or 3535.
    15. In the User Name field, type your SMTP user name.
    16. In the Password field, type your SMTP password.
    17. Click OK.
    Obviously, I'm connected to the internet...
    I tried doing this through POP and IMAP, there is an error message saying unable to connect. What can be done to make this work?

    the 3535 is not gonna work...the 110 will work...I have been dealing w/ godaddy.com .mac and mac support for 5 months with compatibility. It is the worst.. mac says they never heard of godaddy and godaddy had me run a trace route so then I had to deal w/ my isp for no good reason since other browsers could reach godaddy so it is not my stream.. It is the worst. These are suposed to be the easiest and most seemless systems and they cannot sync. I use firefox to get to go daddy on my macbook and it is as if I am using dial up. I am ready to just cancel .mac which is really another headache to learn..and godaddy and just move everything over to a company that can handle everything. My web business has been on hold since January. It makes no sense. I got the mac so I would not have to deal w/ the windows registry error answer.. now godaddy tells me they are built for windows.
    There is no winning at this. I have spent countless hours on phone support after spending countless hours researching the answers only for all support lines to tell me i can "go to...website for more info..." it is as bad as using windows.
    Very dissatissfied,
