Canon MF4150 Problem in MB w/ 10.6.7 and ALSO in MBProw/ 10.6.3

I upgraded my older MacBook to Snow Leopard by CD, then clicked to accept the update, which was for 10.6.7. Now I can't print to my Canon multifunction laserjet MF4150. It seems I'm not alone. But now my daughter's MBPro which uses 10.6.3 (see below) also can't print!
First several times I tried to print to my MB, the print monitor showed an "Error" without saying what the error was. I downloaded the latest driver (UFRIIV224_MacOSX_usEN.dmg). Restarted a couple of times. Now the Print Monitor apears to show the job going successfully to the printer but nothing happens. It happens no matter which application I print from.
Checking the printer info settings, the General tab says I have "Driver Version: 2.0".
Even worse -- I decided to check whether my daughter's MB Pro (2010) was still able to print to the MF4150 (worked fine the last time she printed). Printing from a Word document, I noticed that the printer that I could select now said "Canon MF 4100 Series @ Steve's Computer". Sure enough, after the upgrade/update, my computer now had a check in a box for "Share this printer...", which I never used previously. Unclicking sharing on my MB did not help, as her print setup still identified it as a shared printer.
I tried to add the printer as a new one. But there is no corresponding driver to select. So I then downloaded the latest driver from Canon. The result -- now her MB Pro does the same as mine -- the print monitor shows the job going successfully to the printer but nothing comes out. She's not even on 10.6.7 and now she can't print!
HELP!

Assuming you were printing fine to the MF4150 with the previous OS on this MacBook then you may need to look at removing the previous and current Canon UFR2 driver first.
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax, select the UFR2 print queue and press the - (minus) button to remove the queue. Exit from Print & Fax
2. Open Finder and navigate to HD > Library > Printers > Canon and trash the UFR2 folder
3. Still in Finder, navigate to HD > Library > LaunchAgents and trash the file "jp.co.canon.UFR2.BG.plist". Exit from Finder.
4. Open Activity Monitor and select the entry "UFRII Backgrounder" and then Force Quit. Exit from Activity Monitor.
The Mac is now ready to install the new v2.24 of the UFR2 driver.
With regards to the driver version, 2.0 is all you ever see with this UFR2 driver in Options & Supplies. This is fine. If you wanted to be sure what driver you have, select to print a document and then change the print menu to About. This will show the version of driver being used, which should now be 2.24 after the steps above.
As for the daughters Mac, if you have the MF4150 connected to your Mac and sharing it, then she won't be able to print. This is a limitation with the UFR2 driver on 10.6. This was working with fine with the older drivers on 10.5 and earlier, but it no longer works with the new v2.x drivers and 10.6.

  • Problems with Mountain Lion – Dock has gone and also clicking trackpad no longer works.

    Hi,
    I’m not sure how best to explain the problem I am having but here goes anyway…I have a Macbook pro (mid 2009 model) and recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.  Everything seemed to be working ok and I was enjoying trying to work out all the new features. However yesterday when I switched the Macbook on, once it had started some strange things were happening. Firstly my dock at the bottom had disappeared. Normally this is at the bottom of the screen however this no longer the case. I used the keyboard shortcut to show the dock however when I do this, the dock appears but none of the icons increase in size when I hover over them (as used to happen).
    The other thing that is happening is that I cannot click on anything to open or select an option. For example, I can’t click on anything on the dock (when I can get the dock to show) to open an application, I cannot select from drop down lists etc (ie select file then software updates). Even when I switch off my Macbook I can only hit return for the shutdown mode, and cannot select one of the other options, for example restart.  I tried to re-install Mountain Lion by holding down command and R (I think  - I read this on another forum and followed the instructions) however when the Macbook restarted and the various options came up, one of which is to re-install the software, I couldn’t select anything to do this due to this track pad problem I have explained (probably badly!) above.
    I should point out that everything was fine for a few days after upgrading to Mountain Lion and then the above problems started.
    Can anyone help?  I’m pretty stressed with the whole thing as I can’t use my Macbook now and am worried it’s permanently broken!!
    Or am I better just taking it along to the genius bar at my local Apple store?
    Thanks in advance.

    Not the same symptoms, but I noticed that after a few days of running great, odd things started happening on my iMac. The first thing was that when I would boot the Mac up for the first time in the morning, it would boot into single user mode. I have the Apple Bluetooth keyboard, so I know there's no way keys are being held down.
    The other symptom was that Microsoft Outlook 2011 would hang on launch. It would get stuck on the "Setting Up Identities..." phase. Rebuilding the Outlook database would help until the next time I shut the iMac down.
    Also a couple of times it got to the Desktop after a boot, but not everything was working correctly and some startup items didn't load.
    The iMac also kept booting into single user mode on the first boot.
    I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, and I thought that fixed both problems, until the next morning. Now I just don't shut the Mac down. I can close Outlook, and it launches in a couple of seconds.
    So it would appear that something is becoming corrupt when OS X is shut down. If I don't shut it down, it's fine.

  • How to get a Canon MF4150 to scan

    I've recently moved from a PC to Mac. Canon provides print and fax drivers for Macs for my laser multi-function Canon MF4150. But not a driver for scanning, and they say they don't have any plans to produce one (in spite of the fact that they still are selling this model and don't say anything about Mac functionality being limited).
    Is it really true that it is impossible for me to use the scanner on this machine? (It has a feeder and on the PC one could easily scan in multiple pages and save as a single pdf file.) Are there other drivers or workarounds that might enable me to be able to use the scanner? Canon hasn't responded to my last query about this.
    Many thanks to anyone who understands this better than I do.

    You may find third party scanner drivers help with that scanner. I've listed a few such solutions on my FAQ*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/macosxnative.html#SCANNER
    Also if you run a Windows virtualization program, you may find that scanner drivers work in such a program on the Mac*:

    Both may offer solutions not provided by the manufacturer.

  • 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.

  • Canon MF4150 and Airport Extreme

    A good friend of mine recently bought the Canon MF4150 (on my recommendation) for his home office. He needed to replace his ageing laser printer and wanted a AIO laser with faxing support, preferably from the Mac. According to the specs, the MF4150 did all this, so he purchased the unit and rang me when he couldn't get it working on his AEBS.
    The MF4150 uses Canon's proprietary pdl called UFR2. Having used this driver with the imageRUNNER MFD's, I knew it was a driver that worked via TCP/IP and AppleTalk. So I thought it would work fine with his wireless network. But I was wrong!
    After connecting the MF4150 to the AEBS USB port, the PSU was opened and Add selected. The MF4150 was displayed as a Bonjour device in the Default Browser view, but when the MF4150 was selected, the Print Using menu couldn't find the correct driver. If you browsed to the Canon folder, no UFR drivers were available, only the Canon BJs and GIMP/Gutenprint drivers.
    Now, according to the manual, the correct procedure to add an iR via UFR is to select More Printers > Canon IP (UFR2). Then you input the IP address and leave the queue name blank. The driver then queries the printer and selects the appropriate 'ppd'. So, hoping that the USB port is somehow mapped to the AEBS's IP address (which according to Apple tech info (107998) it is possible for XP to print to the USB port by using IP) I was hoping the same could be done for OS X. But unfortunately it didn't work; the spooler stops as soon as the job is sent. The cups log shows the following...
    I [26/Jul/2007:13:27:52 +1000] Job 195 queued on '192168_11' by 'wazza'.
    I [26/Jul/2007:13:27:52 +1000] Started filter /System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr (PID 373) for job 1.
    E [26/Jul/2007:13:27:52 +1000] [Job 1] fatal: The printer is not supported, or the printer information is not acquired correctly. If the printer is supported, delete the printer from the printer list then add it again.: 10322
    E [26/Jul/2007:13:27:52 +1000] PID 373 stopped with status 82!
    The error was generated because it is not possible to manually select the UFR2 driver, and the driver fails to find the printer on the AEBS USB, so it defaults to a Generic device, which the printer does not support. If the printer supported PS, or even PCL, then we may have been able to use a compatible driver, such as one of the Gutenprint drivers. But alas, the MF4150 only supports UFR2, and it only has a USB port, so it seems that there is no way that this model can be connected to wirelessly from OS X
    So let this be a warning to anyone looking at the Canon MF4150 and who wants to use the device on their wireless OS X network. It works fine via the Mac USB (and Windows via wireless) but cannot be installed via the AEBS USB (AFAIK)...

    Hi Greg,
    The UFR2 driver supports both network and USB printing, so what you have written is not the issue. If the printer is connected directly to the Mac's USB port, the driver software will determine the printer model and select the appropriate 'ppd'. However, it seems that when the same device is advertised via Bonjour, whatever information the software is expecting to be received is not, and therefore the 'ppd' is not selected. I therefore believe this is a Canon software procedural issue, rather than a protocol issue. And in typical Canon style, rather than resolving this problem, they release another model (MF4680) that can work around this limitation...

  • Canon MF4150 Printing

    I just bought the Canon MF4150 Printer. I plugged it into the Airport Extreme N Base Station. The base station recognizes the printer as the 4100 series and identifies it as the Canon printer.
    When I try to go into Printer Utilities and add the printer, in the default browser of the print utility under system preference I see the printer and it shows the connection type as "Bonjour". I try to add the printer, but it requires drivers. I downloaded the drivers off of the Canon website, but it doesn't seem to work or recognize printing over wireless or bonjour.
    The selection box "Print Using" Does not contain the proper drivers, but only contains the Mac OS X GIMP drivers. What can I do? When I connect the printer directly via USB, the Canon drivers that I installed "UFR II" appears.
    I really want this to work!!! Any ideas?? Is there a way to get this printer to print over wireless connected directly to the Airport Extreme Base Station?

    My setup was similar to yours. In the printer browser it shows the Canon MF4100 series, I selected it, and it shows
    Name: Canon MF4100 (which is correct)
    Location: "My Airport Base Station Name" (which is correct)
    Print Using: "Please select a driver or printer model"
    The "Print Using" seems to be the problem. I don't see the drivers that I loaded for the USB, and I tried "Auto Select" but it bounces back to "Please select a driver or printer model". I tried using one of the GIMP, but it does not work. I also tried "Other" and a dialogue box popped up allowing me to choose a driver. I looked everywhere for the print driver, but there wasn't a single file I could select to get it going. Any ideas?
    BIG SIGH, This is a Mac, and I love it! Why does Canon make it so difficult?!

  • Drivers for Canon MF4150 and Epson SPR320 won't load (used to be there)

    I recently reinstalled my system software for other reasons. Now, I can not print to the above mentioned printers because there are no drivers associated with them. I have downloaded and installed the drivers for both printers three times but the computer does not recognize them. Any ideas?

    With regards to the Canon MF4150, the driver installer will add the files to ./Library/Printers/Canon/UFR2. If the printer is connected to the Mac via USB then the software should automatically select the correct printer model when you select to add it via the Default browser view. If the printer is connected to your Mac via some other means, then the UFR2 driver software can have problems with determining the printer model and will either add a generic UFR2 model or not create a printer queue at all.
    Could you explain how you have the printers connected to your Mac?

  • Canon MF4150 - won't print, despite fresh drivers

    So I'm trying to help set up a relative's new iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I've downloaded V2.24 of the relevant Canon driver for his ImageClass MF4150 printer, and when I set everything up and go to print, I get this:
    "Cannot communicate with the printer, or the printer is not supported.  If the printer is supported, check the printer connection and add it again.  Then, if the print dialog box has a [Printer Info] button acquire the printer information.: 10322"
    Very frustrating.  Anyone have any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance ...
    I did search and it seems like many have had the same problem, but none of the fixes proposed have seemed to work for us.

    As sig has suggested, the connection from the Mac to the Canon MF4150 is important. The Canon UFR2 driver only supports a direct USB connection from the Mac to the printer. You cannot have the printer connected to a print server, router or a Windows computer.
    If you do have the MF4150 connected directly to the Mac via USB then the USB cable could be the cause of the error. As the error message suggests, you can open a document and select to print. From the print dialog, change the menu to Special Features and press the Printer Info button. This will open the Printer Information window and if the connection is good then you should see an image of the printer. If the connection has a problem then an error message will appear stating that it could not acquire information from the printer.

  • MacBook Pro won't detect network printer Canon MF4150

    I have a multifunction printer, Canon MF4150, hooked upto a PC Desktop and I have enabled printer sharing. The printer is detected and works fine on my PC Laptop. However, when I try installing it on my 13" MacBook Pro, the **** thing won't show up. It doesn't show up under the Windows category of Print and Fax so I tried to set it up the way Apple has suggested in their support section. It asks you to go to advance and input the IP address and location of the printer and then select the printer driver. I would post the link but I conveniently can't find it right now. The printer driver is obviously not listed on the list, so I go to the Canon website and download a mac version of the driver and install it. When I check to see if it's on the list now, it says MF4360-MF4390, but not MF4150. I thought I had installed the wrong one but I downloaded and installed it again, and I got the same problem. Anyone have this printer or have a similar problem? Another way to hookup this printer would be much more convenient, is there anyway that the Window tab could detect it? Any help is appreciated!

    The warranty must be close to running out. Take it ASAP to the Apple Store or AASP and have it checked.

  • Canon MF4150 duplex printing

    Hi All,
    Has anyone gotten duplex printing to work on OS X (10.4.9) with the Canon MF4150? They just released a new driver version (1.5):
    link: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=DownloadDetailAct&fcategoryid=3 35&modelid=14444
    I installed this over the 1.4 version. The two-sided option (on the finishing tab of the print dialog) is still greyed out.
    Canon tech support says that two-sided printing is unavailable on this printer.
    However, someone over at macintouch says that they have gotten two sided printing to work on the MF4150:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/printing/topic4318.html#apr13
    So, what is the answer. Is two sided printing possible from OS X on the Canon MF4150?
    MacBook Pro 2.0GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9)

    The MF4150 uses the UFR2 driver that is also used on the imageRUNNER copiers, which I already have installed on my 10.4.9 MBP. I added the printer driver and can see that the machine definitely supports duplex printing. As you have found it is located under Finishing > Print Style > '2-sided Printing'.
    Since your option to select this is not available, I'm wondering if it is a detection issue? The UFR2 driver, like the PS driver, cannot be configured via Printer Info > Installable Options. For the iR's, the driver polls the copier to determine what accessories are installed. This is usually done on installation but I have also seen this 'get device info' window appear the first time you try to print. I would try selecting the printer in the printer list and clicking Utility. This will open the UFR2 Print Monitor which will give you info about the printer setup. This may 'update' the driver so that 2 sided becomes available?
    Also, I've had issues with the Canon drivers/ppds where one option is greyed-out due to a constraint. For example, to staple a print job the collate needs to selected. But after selecting this, the staple option is still not available. You have to select another menu item, such as ColorSync, then go back to Finishing to select Stapling.
    A last suggestion would be to delete the driver, reset the printing system and delete the UFR2 folder in Library/Printers/Canon. Then reinstall the new v1.50 driver (which is a Universal version) and add that again to see if it resolves your problem.

  • Canon MF4150 over network on Windows 2000

    I've been searching but haven't found a solution for my problem, so I thought maybe someone could help.
    I'm running a Canon MF4150 laser printer on a Windows2000 server. The printer is shared out and can be accessed nicely through Windows machines on the network. Now I need to print to it from my iMac but can't get it to work.
    I have downloaded the latest driver from Canon's website, v1.80, and installed the driver. Interestingly however, there is still no imageClass or MF4150 printer in my list. There are two UFRII printer entries but none seems to be an obvious choice for the MF4150, once called "MF4360-4390 UFRII LT" and the other one "D460-D490 UFRII LT."
    So I look up the printer on the network using System Preferences -> Print & Fax" and then select it under "Windows" where the printer shows up nicely. Since I don't seem to have a proper driver despite my installing it, I selected the MF4360-4390 UFRII LT driver in hopes it would work. But no luck.
    I never get a peep out of the printer and if I go to the printer monitor and select utilities I get an error message saying, "Cannot find the printer to monitor."
    Does anyone have any suggestions what I may be doing wrong?
    Thanks
    Guido

    I had the same problem when I tried, quite stubbornly, to get my USB-connected Canon MF4150 to Vista Home Edition Compaq Presario machine to print over the network from both my iBook G4 and my MacBook Pro, wireless, both running OS 10.5.5.
    I tried every iteration of the Canon UF driver, from 1.6, to 1.7, to 1.8, and I tried both the IP Printing feature with and without LPD support. I enabled LPD printing from within Vista as well in case it was a Microsoft issue. I also tried going through the Windows pane in the print panel. It appears that yes, it's a driver coding issue, one of which I've never experienced with HP. It appears Canon just releases a new model of printer rather than effectively update their drivers to support cross-platform network printing.
    Hopefully Canon will release a 1.9 or 2.0 that effectively addresses this issue. I'm able to see the printer over the Windows Network via the Add Printer Preferences pane and the Windows tab. However, even though it "sees" it I get an error code.... 45052 or something like that. The printer just doesn't respond to the command.
    Why doesn't Microsoft have something similar to Bonjour which would facilitate printers shared on a Windows Network...wouldn't that make it a lot easier? It's too bad Bonjour is only one-directional from a Macintosh to PCs, and not bi-directional. It would solve a lot of headaches like having to load VMWARE or other bologna like that.
    Having solved lots of other cross-platform issues in the past, this one was a doozy and I guess all we can do is call technical support at Canon and put in a trouble ticket for them to release a new driver that's coded to handle wireless network protocols in addition to hard-connect USB protocols. That seems to be the solution but apparently it must come from Canon.
