Canon MF 4150

Hello, I'm an idiot.
I have been trying to make my printer work since I installed Leopard in ... November?
Canon finally came up with a new driver UFRII v161 and I downloaded and installed it but I still get nothing when I hit print. When I go to system profiler, I see that the driver is still v160. How do I uninstall that driver and get the new one to run the printer? I don't have the Installatin disk any more. Seems like I should be able to find the file and drop it in the trash but where is that printer driver file?
BTW using MBPro with printer via USB. Please speak slowly. It seems I'm a slow learner.
Thanks

The UFR2 driver has an uninstaller also. First, delete the printer from the Print & Fax pane. Select the printer then click the - (minus) to delete the printer queue.
Now you can run the driver installation again and when the the menu shows Easy Install, change this to Uninstall. This will delete the driver folder (which btw is located in Library/Printers/Canon/UFR2).
With the folder removed, you will need to run the UFR2 installer again. But first, unplug the MF4150's USB cable from the MBP. Once the UFR2 v1.61 driver installer is complete and you have restarted your Mac, you can add the printer again. Reconnect the USB cable and open Print & Fax. Wait for a while as the printer may appear automatically. If it doesn't, click the + and select Default view. The MF4150 should appear in the list, showing as USB. Select it. The Print Using menu should change to Canon UFR2 Printer. Click Add to complete the install and try printing to see if all is well...

  • Further problems with Canon MF 4150 under 10.6

    Hi All,
    Pahu solved my original problems but two new ones have arisen.
    First, even though I have the System Preferences for printers locked (in all accounts), somehow or other, there seems to be a frequent proliferation of drivers for the MF 4150. That is, when I complete the printer install, I have a single printer driver set as the default and a single fax driver available. Both seem to work. At some later time, if I try to print, there are a multitude of printer drivers, all labeled (Series 1) and the appropriate one needs to be chosen. If any of the others are chosen, I get an error message. Additionally, the Printer preferences are no longer locked. Second, for some but not all multipage documents the bottoms of pages after the first are garbled and printed with horizontal lines, rather than the appropriate content. The problem is replicable and happens when the particular documents are loaded in either OpenOffice or in MS Word. This also occurred once when printing a web page. Is it the v200 driver? Is it bad luck? Is it ghosts?

    Hi Ed. I see that you have posted this on the Snow Leopard forum also so I will answer there.

  • Printing problems with macbook pro and canon 4150

    I have a Macbook Pro running 10.6.8.  I also have a Canon imageclass MF4150 printer.  I downloaded from the canon website the driver Mac-UFR II Printer Driver V2.25.  When I try to print, I get an error message.
    Can anyone suggest a generic printer driver that would work?
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    I have a NetGear WGR614 that has worked without issue for a macmini, my MBP and direct-wired PCs and Linux towers.  It only has issues when ATT DSL causes connectivity issues what require them fixing things in their connection centers.
    WGR614 is a few years old, but they still sell it.
    I was warned years ago against DLink.
    LinkSys was recommended almost as more reliable then NetGear.
    But then Airport Express is an Apple product and Apple has direct links to set them up from your Mac.

  • MF 4150 Scanner Problem

    I have  a MF 4150 and trying to get it working with new PC running Win 8.1.  I have installed updated Win  8/8.1 drivers and toolbox as shown in another post on the forum. All functions will work but when I tiurn off the MFP and turn it back on the scan function will not work. I have contacted Canon support 3 times with no luck. First time we worked through setup and checked 3 services to confirm they were they were running in auto.These were WIA, RPC Locator and Shell Hardware Detection. Canon support said they do not know why there is a problem and he would need some time to research this. I called back 1 wk later when he did not reply to me and no progress and he hinted that there were also issues with new products running Win 8.1. They need more time and believe it may be Microsoft issue which needs to be fixed. Again he will contact me. I have uninstalled and reinstalled software, changed USB cable twice and still same issue.  After a few days of not using scan function I tried scanning and it worked but when I turn MFP off and then on the toolbox hangs when trying to scan. The printer has always worked throuhout this. I even went back to old PCs running XP and one running Vista and all function work.  I have searched this forum and find some other similar issues but the install gets more complicated and I am concerned with what was done to make it possibly work correctly ? It was used on some different products and wonder if it will  work with this one . Any help would be appreciated if others we able to overcome this problem.

  • In Leopard, Can't print to Canon Imageclass MF4150 - wants to FAX

    Although I do not have my print dialogue box set for fax,it is definitelyset for printing, the document won't print because it says I have no recipients. What do I do about this?

    There are two different drivers available for the MF4150. The UFR2 driver for printing and the Fax driver for, well, faxing. It sounds like you may have chosen the fax driver when you created the printer queue. If you open System Preferences > Print & Fax and select the printer, in the right pane will be the entry Kind. This should say something like 'MF4150 UFR2 (LT)'. If the word Fax is showing instead then that is the problem.
    Or, when you created the printer queue, you should have seen two entries in the default browser view (if the printer is connected via USB). Maybe you selected the one that said Fax?
    The first thing I would do is ensure you have the UFR2 driver installed. If you don't remember installing this software, you can easily tell if it is present by opening Finder and navigating to Library/Printers/Canon. If the driver software is installed you will see the folder UFR2. If the folder isn't there, download the latest version of 1.70 from Canon and run the installer.
    With the UFR2 driver installed, choose to add a printer and select the one that doesn't show fax (if connected by USB). If it is networked, select More Printers then Canon IP (UFR2). Then input the ip address of the 4150 and OK. The software should automatically select the correct printer model.

  • Unable to capture from my Canon hv30

    I just tried to capture some footage from my hv30, the first time I've tried, and it say's on the capture screen that the capture device is off line. I have the camera properly connected and its in the right setting, is there some setting in premiere that's i have wrong? I have another program that came with the camera, and it can't connect to the camera either, saying that its not connected. Not sure what to do at this point, so if anyone has any ideas that would be awesome.

    This is the most weird camera I have ever seen, you have a miniDV tape camera appartently without a Firewire I/O connector.  I just looked at this Canon specification  http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=177&modelid=1620 6#ModelTechSpecsAct
    and there is nothing about a Firewire/IEEE-1394/etc.  Without a firewire interface Premiere is unable to capture video.  apparently there is some software supplied with the camera, maybe it can capture the video via the USB interface to your computer and then (if it is the correct format) you can import it to Premiere.

  • Canon projector doesn't recognize the macbook pro with OSX lion using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter

    Hi glraczon.support,
    It sounds like the external display you are using (projector) operates at a smaller resolution than your MacBook Pro. You may want to configure the display preferences in System Preferences for the external projector.
    Here is an article that may help you with that process:

  • I am unable to open raw files from my Canon T1i in Adobe Camera Raw of my version CS3 of Photoshop.  I have tried to update my ACR by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe website but I am still unable to open raw files, just JPEG.  Is there a way to use

    I am unable to open raw files taken on my Canon Rebel T1i in my version of Photoshop CS3.  When I import raw files into Bridge they come up as patches with CR2 on them and when clicked on, a notice comes up stating that Photoshop does not recognize these files.  I tried to update my Adobe Camera Raw by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe Website, but when I clicked on the plus-in, I got another message that Photoshop does not recognize this file.  I spoke with a representative from Canon who said that I could not update CS3 and that I should subscribe to the Cloud.  I would prefer to use my CS3, if possible.  Can anyone advise me what to do?

    The T1i was first supported by Camera Raw 5.4 which is only compatible with CS4 and later

    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    Some options:
    Upgrade to CS6

  • Questions on Drivers & printing to networked Windows computer (CANON)

    I'm trying to print over a network, to a CANON printer connected to a Windows PC.
    My initial attempts resulted in the document being printed 75% smaller on the upper left corner of the page only. (Margins etc. are all fine).
    Sounded to me like a driver problem, so I downloaded the latest driver for OS X(from CANON). I installed the driver, but now, when I try to setup a new printer, I still can't see my printer model (ip5000) in the available list. (The options are either Generic or one of the gimp drivers that came with OS X).
    Where did it put the driver? - How can I make the printer use it?
    And, how do you un-install a driver? (in case it doesn't work)
    Thanks.

    Hi there,
    The drivers for the Canon PIXMA range of printers are not designed to work across a network, they are for direct USB connections. As has been mentioned numerous times in this forum, if you want to print to a Canon BJ printer that is networked, ex. shared by a Windows PC, you need to use the CUPS (GIMP) drivers that are included with the OS. The only exception to this is for the R series of the PIXMA printers, which have an Ethernet and wireless connection. There is a Canon network utility that redirects the spooled file to the remote printer.
    Try using the S800 GIMP driver. You will have to open the driver properties and set it to Text to get good quality printing.
    Better still, download the latest release of Gutenprint 5.0.0 and use the iP4000 driver. It works nicely to my iP5200R hanging off an XP SP2 box.
    Regards,
    Paul

  • TS3147 After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"

    After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"  This problem happened right after I installed Mountain Lion. I then downloaded Canon's upgraded software and drivers for the MX 870 and the problem was resolved. Now one month later, the problem has returned.

    You should still use Image Capture IMHO.  If it was my gear, that's what I would do.  No need to worry about software upgrades.

  • How to uninstall print drivers Canon MF4150 issues

    Hello all, I am having a nightmare of a time getting my Canon MF4150 to print. It looks from all of the threads on here it was a less than ideal choice for a Mac owner.
    When I first bought the unit I managed to get it to print, everything seemed peachy.
    Problems arose when I wanted to use the unit to scan. I downloaded a variety of third party software and drivers in an attempt to get the scan function working. I had mixed results, and this process seemed to upset the printing side of things. Once I scanned a document, the printer would then not work.
    I abandoned the idea of scanning through the MF4150 and have gone back to dedicated Epson scanner.
    Since then I have not had any luck getting the printer to print again.
    I have gone through all the MF4150 related threads on these boards I can find, and followed the process to installed outlined here - https://discussions.apple.com/message/7657893#7657893 but to no avail.
    I really just want this thing to print and it's driving me nuts.
    I have the printer attached directly to my MacBook Pro running 10.5.2. I'm not trying to print through the Airport.
    I would like to know how to completely uninstall any UFR II drivers and related software / information and start this process from the beginning again.
    So far, using the answer provided by PAHU here https://discussions.apple.com/message/7657893#7657893
    I have -
    1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
    > DONE
    2. Select the MF4150 printer and press the minus " - " button to remove the printer. Do the same to any other printers that are in the printer list.
    > DONE
    3. Hold down the Control key and click in the empty printer list. A window showing 'Reset printing system' will display. Click this.
    > DONE
    4. Close the Print & Fax utility.
    > DONE
    5. Run the Canon UFR2 v1.70 installer and select Uninstall when the Easy Install menu appears
    > This is where I get snagged. I'm not offered a Uninstall option. I have attached a screen grab of the window I am presented with. I am currently trying the "o1141enx_m_ufr224" version of the UFR driver. I have continued to complete the points below regardless of the fact i cannot uninstall.
    6. Restart the Mac and run the v1.70 installer again to add the UFR2 files back onto your Mac
    7. Go to Applications > Utilities and open Disk Utility. Select the Mac OS X partition in the left pane and select 'Repair Disk Permissions'. When this has completed, quit Disk Utility
    8. Open Print & Fax and add the MF4270 again
    9. Open TextEdit, type some simple text and select to print.
    10. Report back if the above doesn't get you printing.
    I have also attach a screen grab of the process I go through when adding the printer.
    Any help with this would be amazing. I've tried everything I can think of.
    My latest idea is to try and remove any trace of previous printer drivers and go from there. You can see in my list of available drivers in the file attached I now have all sorts of UFR drivers in the list.
    Again, if anyone can throw me a line on this that would be great.
    Thanks & Regards
    Coz

    Hello Coz,
    It's been a while since you've posted, I hope you have not given up.  I was having grief with my MF4150 as well, but got it working.  There is a more current driver - search for Mac_UFRII_V230_uk_EN and install it.
    Then, when you go to add your printer through System Preferences > Print & Fax, make sure you click the "default" icon in the top of the dialog.  It should show your Canon MF 4100 series , then use the bottom drop down menu to choose your driver and select Canno MF410 Series UFRII LT (UK) from the list.

  • Is there a way to edit raw files from the Canon 5DMkIII in Lightroom 2?

    I rented a Canon 5DMkIII this past weekend and shot in RAW. I'm running Lightroom 2.7 on my laptop because I have a pre-Intel dual-G5 tower at home and can't run LR3 or LR4 on a pre-Intel chip machine and I tend to share my libraries across my laptop to my tower and back (so I need to be able to open the LR files on both machines, which is why I'm still using LR2 ... I know, I know, I need to upgrade but that's going to be a hefty investment!)... In the meantime, I'm wondering if there's a way to view/edit the raw files in Lightroom? They won't even import (I get the message upon import attempt: "Some import operations were not performed. (97)")... I know the information is there, though, because I used PhotoMechanic to do the initial sort of my images that I wanted to keep/edit. I see there's ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 6.7 (I think it is) that supports the 5DMkIII, but I'd prefer to edit across the board in Lightroom, it's so much faster. Is there something I can download to still edit my raw files in LR2? Or, do I have to buy the update and get LR4 if I want to edit my 5DMkIII RAW files? Thanks in advance for your help!!

    Support for the canon 5d Mk111 was introduced in LR 4, ACR 6.7 so you will have to use the Adobe DNG Converter 6.7 or later to convert the raw files to dng format before you can import and work with the files in LR 2. The converter is a free download from Adobe and is available at this link.

  • Canon MP560 no longer recognized by Image Capture/Preview

    I have a Canon MP560 wireless printer/scanner and for some reason the scanner can no longer be seen by either Image Capture, Preview, or the Canon mp560 scanner toolbox under the Print menu. This happened either after installing 10.6.5 or after installing the latest Canon Printer Driver updates (I am not sure which caused it, as I did both updates recently...)
    It can, however, be seen by MP Navigator 3.0.
    Anyone found a fix for this yet?
    thanks

    Okay, have done some testing and found some interesting things.
    With a new install of 10.6.5 (selecting not to add any printers) I was not able to locate any Canon AIO via wireless. The Default Add Printer pane was empty so it looks like the printer and scanner driver needs to be present on the Mac. For the printer this is understood, as the Canon protocol 'canonijnetwork' is not present in the BJPrinters folder located in Library > Printers > Canon (due to the customized installation the Canon folder was not even present). In checking the Image Capture folder (HD > Library) I also found that the Devices folder was missing. Inside of here you would normally find the Canon IJScanner package/s for a standard installation of 10.6. But with the customized install this package was not present and appears to influence the Mac's ability to 'see' the networked scanner component. To confirm this, I installed the Canon v2.4.1 driver update, which in turn created the Devices folder in Image Capture and consequently made the scanner component appear in the Default Add Printer view.
    Another observation was that prior to installing the Canon v2.4.1 update, Image Capture would still display the MP on the network, but under the Shared menu - not the Devices menu. So even without the ICA driver installed nor the MP scanner driver installed, I was still able to use Image Capture to scan a document from the wireless MP. The same was true for Preview in as far as the Networked Scanner selection showed all the MP's present on the wireless network.
    At this stage I believe that the Canon driver update you mentioned may have contributed to part, if not all, of your current symptom. The install.log does have a record of what this update installs. If you checked it there may be record of the installer not completing correctly. In any case I assume that for your Mac this update did not complete correctly and is causing the problem. So one suggestion would be to run the [Canon Driver v2.4.1 update|http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899] again (or for the first time if you simply used Software Update previously) to see if this repairs the CanonIJScanner packages.
