Canon iR2020 - Can't Print

At work we got a new Canon iR2020 printer, it is connected to the network. Following the instructions we were able to get all the Windows based and Linux based machines to work, however none of the macs have been able to work with this printer yet. I have tried downloading up to date drivers with no success. It does recognize when the printer is on, in idle, or off. However every time you print it returns the error message "Printer in use. Waiting for the print job to finish." even when there is no job to finish. Thanks in advance for any help!

You may have to restart the machine for the setting to take effect. The button on the top is just a sleep mode, so you have to use the power switch on the RH side of the machine.
As far as a full reset is concerned, I think you would find this is a service mode setting rather than a user mode. The downside to doing this is that all the network and user values would need to be re-entered.
If the restart above doesn't help, then you could try adding the printer using IP > HP Jetdirect-Socket. But first you will need to check if the machine has the PCL kit installed. If it does, then you can add the printer using the Gutenprint Generic PCL5e driver, as there is no Canon PCL option for Mac. If this prints then, while it doesn't give you all the Canon features, it will at least show we can connect from the Mac's.

Question about windows printer canon bj5200 can't print or see in Leopard

Hello;
this has been a problem for me in Tiger as well, I have a windows workgroup network and have a canon bj5200 share on a windows xp machine, I've done some research and can't seem to find the solution on how print from Leopard (previous Tiger) to the shared printer. I choose + to add the printer and then windows it shows my network name but nothing after that. Solutions anyone?

You will either need to enable the Guest account on the Windows computer or create an SMB queue using the account details for the XP PC. In Tiger this was done using the Advanced setting which was available after holding the Option key while pressing More Printers. Not sure if the same process exists for Leopard - will have to check on the MacPro at work or someone with Leopard at home can confirm.
Also, you probably won't be able to use the Canon provided driver as they are usually written to work only with a direct USB connection from the Mac. So you have to find a compatible GIMP-Print (know Gutenprint) driver for the 5200. However the Canon BJ5200 is not listed as a supported device under Gutenprint v5.1.3 nor PrintFab. Are you sure of the model? There is a iP5200...

Can't print to Canon LBP7200Cdn after Lion upgrade

Since upgrading to Lion, I can't register (and therefore can't use) my office printer, a Canon LBP7200Cdn.
I tried for weeks to get it to work with the interim driver Canon released with Lion, then gave up and waited for the full driver. Then that didn't work either.
Installation of the driver appears to work fine, but once the printer is registered, printing from any program gives me the error message "/Library/Printers/Canon/CUPSCAPT/Bins/capdftopdl failed".
The problem is the same whether connecting via USB or IP.
I had the same problem when I updated to Snow Leopard 10.6.7, but installing Canon's new driver fixed it. Now nothing works and I haven't been able to print since the summer. No other Mac users are having this problem (but I'm the only one running Lion). Would welcome help from anyone.
Here's the System Profiler info on the printer:

I've sent a note to Canon and here's their first reply.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you have a Mac running OS X, try AirPrint Activator.

My Canon MP620 just stopped printing text: it can print photos etc but when I send a word document (with a picture) it only prints the picture. Any ideas?

Hi Everyone:
I have a Canon MP620 printer connected directly into my Airport base station. So far it has worked perfectly - I can print any type of document over the network from my MacBook Pro.
Yesterday something weird happened. I have a resumé (as a word document) I was always printing but this time all that was printed was a photo and no text. I did a print preview and it looked fine. I converted to PDF and nothing was printed. I then created a brand new word document and again nothing was printed. I have no problem with images but for some strange reason no text can be printed. All that happens is that the paper goes through and comes out blank.
Any ideas?????
Thanks a lot in advace!

Hi,
Tried all the cleaning programmes and it still will not print...I am lost.

Can't Print Adobe files on Canon ir c4080

Ok, so we just upgraded our printer from a Canon ir C3200 to a ir C4080. When using any Adobe programs (basic image 11x17 with lines going to the edge) we can not print on 11x17 paper with "auto tray select" on and a basic change in 'printer setup'. We have to go all the way into the printer options and force the tray selection in order to get Tabloid.
I've had our leasing tech here and we thought we had it fixed, until we opened a new file and then right back to the same old Tabloid sized print on Letter sized paper.
I can provide some screen shots if necessary, but I'm just wondering if anyone else has run into similar problems?
Tests:
Illustrator (where the initial problem was discovered)
Acrobat (as a test found the same issues of not printing to the desired paper size)
Safari (prints to correct paper size NOT A PROBLEM)
couple of PCs (prints to correct paper size NOT A PROBLEM)
Any thoughts?

Custom Presets are one solution... Maybe I should have phrased my question differently. On the initial "Print" menue that comes up there is a window RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE that is for the "MEDIA" and you have the ability to change those settings, however apparently this is a strictly cosmetic setting because the printer still prints to the default tray. What is the point of an "Auto Tray Select" option if the printer AUTOMATICALLY selects the default tray and completely ignores the user's input as to what paper size he/she wants?
I guess I'm more wondering if Canon just has a bad software interface or if OS X just doesn't play well with it?
Thanks for your input(s)
Jason

I am attempting to connect my Canon Pixma MG5220 printer/copier/scanner to my MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8. After loading software from Canon and attempting to print, I get the following message: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. What can I do to fix this?

I just purchased and installed a Canon Pixma MG5220 printer/copier/scanner to my PC desktop with Windows XP. It works fine. It has been successfully installed on my network and I am able to use it with my laptop running VISTA. However, I am trying to connect it to my MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8 and I am not having much luck. I can see it as one of the printer choices when attempting to print; however, I get the following message:
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
I have been searching for answers, but nothing seems to work yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

Let me understand:
- you have purchased named canon, which is conencted to your PC running windows xp
- downloaded driver for win xp, and canon works fine
- canon is connected to that PC via USB
- that Canon is also activated as network printer, by allowing print sharing in windows; how did you set that option?
- now, you are in Mac OS x 10.6.8, downloaded Canon driver for Mac OS X, installed it, detected printer on the network, printer was installed; was it detected as attached to that PC running win XP? or not?
or you set canon by being connected to your mac directly via USB?
Now, there are some questions you should answer as some details are missing, and your initial text is not clear. Can you print if Canon is connected directly to your mac? did you try that? if not, do it before answering.

Can't print to a Canon MF 4690 wirelessly through Airport Extreme

I cannot seem to figure out why this isn't working. I just replaced a Brother printer (7 years old) that worked great wirelessly through my Airport Extreme with a Canon imageCLASS MF 4690. I found, downloaded and installed the drivers for it (10.6), but when I set up the printer, I can only print using a generic PCL driver. When I choose the Canon UFR driver, I get an error every time, when printing wirelessly or when directly connected via USB. I can see the Canon in the Airport Utility, but it won't print.
What can I do?

Welcome to the discussions, Joe P.!
+What can I do?+
You might try Apple's Printer Troubleshooting Guide to see it that provides some help.
Keep in mind that not all printers are compatible with the USB port on the AirPorts, so that may possibly be the case here if the troubleshooting steps don't provide a solution. Apple does not furnish a list of compatible printers, so unfortunately it's a process of experimentation to see your device will work with the AirPort Extreme.

Can I print to a canon ir c3220 from an iPad? If so, how?

I'm a newbie to the iPad and a bit of a Luddite when it comes to tech... I have a canon ir c3220 at home and want to print to it. The printer does not have wireless, it connects to a wireless router/modem via cable. all other computers print ok.

iOS devices can only print directly to AirPrint printers. All AirPrint printers are wireless but not all wireless printers are capable of using AirPrint.
To print directly from an iPad / iPhone you will need an AirPrint - enabled printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac running handyPrint (donation - supported). The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
You can also buy this standalone print server:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
These options enable you to use any printer available to your network, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades.
Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device.

Can't print to Canon IPF610 after upgrading to Mavericks. HELP!!

Since updateing to the OS 10.9 Mavericks, I am no longer able to print to my Canon IPF610 Large Format Printer. I tried upgrading the driver at the Canon website for the OS 10.9 but it's still not working.

I already know about this and this solved my problem 2 years ago when I hooked up the printer for the first time. Now after installing the Mavericks update, it keeps saying the printer isn't connected. I tried using a different ethernet cable, unplugging and plugging printer back in and still the same problem. I can still print to it from my old Apple G5 tower using 10.5.8 and was even able to print with no problems on my Intel iMac using the 10.8. I installed the updated driver for 10.9 on Canon's website and still get the same problem.

Canon Pixma MG6120 Wireless printer - can't get to work with AirportExtreme

Canon Pixma MG6120 Wireless printer - can't install mg6100swin104ejs.exe 64 bit wirelss driver on Windows 7 64bit when printer is registered to 10.0.1.X Airport Extreme. Even if I enable Advanced Port Mapping, Printer Sharing the Canon software doesn't recognize the printer if it is registered wirelessly to the Airport Extreme. Canon senior tech support and Apple senior tech support don't know how to help. Any advice for someone who was able to get a Canon Pixma Printer to work with their Airport Extreme from a Windows 7 64bit PC also connected to 10.0.1.X subnet? Your advice is greatly appreciated. The printer once online is pingable at 10.0.1.9 and I can see SD cards and browse photo's just can't get the Canon software to wirelessly activate/install.

To print from an iPAD using the Lexmark S300 series,you need to download the LexPrint app from this link: LexPrint
Hope this helps.
