Canon MF4570dn Printer error: capdftopdl failed

I have three iMacs all running OSX v10.6.8 and connected to a Canon MF4570dn  printer via network static IP - using Bonjour protocol and Canon Driver.
Downloaded the latest drivers from the Canon website for OSX v10.6 and installed the package.
Only one of the iMacs will print/scan successfully.
The other two throw this error:
Error: /Library/Printers/Canon/CUPS_MF_Printer/Bins/capdftopdl failed
So I called Canon and they walked me through removing and reinstalling the driver - of course with the same error result - so now they are telling me to call the computer manufacturer(Apple) for support for a corrupt driver (huh?).
Any ideas on how to get rid of this error and get the printer work?
Thanks.

hey, I tried what you said, but no luck, still getting the same error. Did you do anything else
The problem was under advanced networking -
there were entries in the Bypass Proxy Settings for these Hosts & Domains  -
I removed the entry *.local, 169.254/16 (not needed) and that's all it took. Hope this helps someone else.

    I just upgrade our office to include 7 new Mac Pro towers and one iMac. All of the towers had no problems when upgrading the print drivers for our Canon printer.  The iMac (only) returns a print error and will not print to the device. If anyone can read the error code in the consule and direct me how to fix the error I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Canon iRC2380 - Print Error -50

    I just installed the newest printerdrivers for a Canon iRC2380. When I print I get error code -50.
    Canon won't help me since it's a filesystem error. (-50 paramErr Error in user parameter list)

    The Canon controller has three queue names; LP, SPOOL or DIRECT.
    With the queue set to LP, the settings in the copier determine the internal processing, which is typically DIRECT, meaning that the print job is sent to RAM and processed and only moved to the HD if necessary.
    With the SPOOL queue, the print job is sent to the HD first regardless of the copier settings. Once the entire job has been received in the drive, the data is then sent to RAM for processing.
    So, I suggest you use LP and let the copier decide if the job can stay in RAM or needs the HD.

  • Canon MP560 Printer Error

    Hello
    I have used my Canon MP560 for over a year and it worked fine while it was in use, however, I put it away for several months and now I am having issues setting it back up again.
    When I connect via WiFi, the printer stays offline ("The printer is not connected") - the blue light on the printer is on, and I have successfully connected to my network.
    When I connect via the USB cable, I get a 311 error ("Error Number : 311 Printer is in use or an error has occurred. If an error has occurred, eliminate the cause of the error.").
    I would prefer to have it wireless, but at this point, I'll be glad if it'll work via the USB!
    Any help fixing this issue would be appriciated.
    Thank you in advance
    (I'm running on Lion 10.7.1 on my mid-2010 macbook pro)

    Based on the error message it sounds like the print queues have not been created correctly. So open Print & Scan and select the printer and remove it by pressing the minus button under the Printers list. Actually, if you have no other printers installed, I would recommend you reset the printing system. This will remove all printers from Print & Scan but not the associated printer drivers, so you will just need to add the printers again. The procedure for the reset is described below.
    With the print queues removed one thing to note is that the USB printer has a different setup to the wifi printer. So if you do connect the MP560 to the Mac via USB, this should automatically create a new printer in Print & Scan. But this printer will not print to the wifi MP560. And the same applies in reverse, which is probably what you have right now with the 311 error.
    If you don't want to create a USB MP560 and simply have the wifi MP560, then don't connect the printer to the Mac via USB and click the + in Print & Scan to add the wifi connected MP560. With the Default view selected, the MP560 should appear in this view, first as a scanner and after a few seconds, it will appear again showing canonijnetwork in the Kind column. Select this entry and the Print Using menu should change to "Canon MP560 series". If this does not happen, then download and install the Canon driver update that sig has provided a link to.
    How to Reset the Printing System
    Open System Preferences > Print & Scan
    Move your mouse over the Printers list
    Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
    Click the "Reset printing system ..." popup
    Restart your Mac

  • Fix for Canon 6C10 printer error. Permanent solution!

    Ok, don't try this video if you don't know what your doing. This requires technical knowledge. I'm not responsible.
    I finally found a solution to the Canon 6C10 purge unit error/service, which my local repair said that they need to replace the purge unit. Anyhow, from the looks of it, it seems like a design flaw of Canon but lets not be harsh about it. I made a video on how to fix it. Canon printers are great!
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0tb07N1dIo

    Brilliant! Thanks very much Chirantha, I have a MG5350, it doesn't have the switch you pointed at but I cleaned the wiper and operated the cam & it worked just great.
    Thank you,
    Colin

  • Canon MF4400w Printer - "Filter" failed error. Can't scan either.

    Hi,
    I work in a wholly Mac environment. We have around 10 plus Macs in the office, most of them running 10.8.3 (the latest I believe). All Macs are able to print to our Canon MF4400w Printer fine EXCEPT mine.
    I've had a Canon technician come by. We've installed/reinstalled the canon drivers multiple times, tried via USB/Wireless, and I personally looked up these forums to try and diagnose the problem myself. As far as I can tell, it has something to do with "capdftopdl", whatever that is.
    This is a new iMac that was purchase a few weeks ago. I've used migration assistant to transfer my files from my old Mac to this new one via LAN cable. Printing from this Mac has always resulted in the "Stopped. "Filter" failed." error. It has never printed successfully despite trying multiple different drivers.
    Log printout from console:

    Things I have tried:
    1) Some threads suggest that it may be a corrupted Font problem. Followed steps suggested by thread, no luck.
    2) Some suggested it was a setting under network. Followed those steps, still same problem.
    3) Setting paper print size to A4/Letter
    Please help!

    Can you reply with your email address, but in the form of user_name at domain_name dot com (dot country if applicable). I have some files to send you to replace the Canon files that are possibly causing the error.
    Also, for your reference, you posted in the Lion forum but you have Mtn Lion. If you posted in the Mtn Lion forum I would have got to you sooner.

  • Canon MF5950dw throwing Stopped - 'filter' failed printer error

    We just bought a Canon MF5950dw printer, and on a MBA running 10.8.2 when we try to print anything over the network, it'll stop with the error: Stopped - 'filter' failed.
    I've:
    repairing permissions from the rescue disk
    tried deleting and re-adding the printer
    uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers
    reset the CUPS printing system
    and nothing has helped. The MBA has no problem printing to our old printers. It works fine on the my MBP running 10.8.2 and our Windows 7 machines. It persists whether I set it up as a Bonjour printer or an IP printer.
    Anyone know how to fix this? thanks!

  • Printing Error with Canon MF6500

    I'm trying to print with my Canon MF6500 but I keep getting a printer error saying that there is an error in the connection. The strange thing is that it was working fine a couple days ago. Here are a few things:
    Things I've Done:
    -printed using another macbook with the same USB cord (worked)
    -uninstalled and reinstalled ALL printers (did not work)
    -downloaded the driver from the canon website (did not work)
    -used multiple USB cords
    Things that might have caused the problem:
    -Used a Canon Pixma iP1800 to print
    -Used a HP photosmart C1300 to scan and print
    another thing to note is that when I install the printer it doesn't automatically detect the software anymore, I have to select the proper printer driver (Canon MF6500 UFR II)

    anguonly wrote:
    Maybe the process "UFR II BackGrounder" is the problem but I don't want to shut out something important
    The Backgrounder service provides communication between the UFR2 driver and the Mac. If this service fails to run and connect to the printer then it will cause errors, such as the one you are having. You could look at stopping this service, it will restart by itself, or restarting the Mac will do the same.
    With all that you have done so far I suggest you look at removing the UFR2 driver and associated files and then install v2.21 again. First remove the existing MF6500 printer queue in Print & Fax. Then trash the following files;
    System Volume/Library/Printers/Canon/UFR2
    System Volume/Library/LaunchAgents/jp.co.canon.UFR2.BG.plist
    System Volume/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/CNTD**Z*2.ppd.gz
    Where * indicates a character string that represents the printer model, and 2 indicates a character string that represents the corresponding language.
    Then restart the Mac and install the v2.21 UFR2 driver.

  • Trying to connect new MacBook Air to printer (Canon MF4570dn)attached to my PC

    I have a new MacBook Air and I am trying to set it up to print to a Canon MF4570dn hooked up via USB to my PC. I have file and printer sharing turned on. The MacBook can see the workgroup --> computer --> printer name. I have tried using Canon's print drivers and generic PCL to no avail. With the former, I get "filter' failed and with the latter, everything seems to work when I look in the printer status (shows that it is waiting to print and then just disappears (as if it has finished printing) - but no printout.
    Network is avilable.

    Hi LindaH51,
    If you are having an issue connecting to a shared printer from your MacBook Air, you may find the following article helpful:

    Thanks sig.
    I have already tried this one.
    It did not help
    Whats there to do?
    Is it simply to wait it out, or face the reality and buy a new printer?
    Regards

    Hi Pebbles2313,
    It sounds like you have an issue with your printer software. You may find some of the software necessary to run your printer through the following link:

    Try downloading the driver directly from Canon's web site.

  • I can't see my Canon MG5220 printer... Initially I was getting "there is a communication error" so I rebooted everything, reset the printing system, reinstalled the driver and still NO luck! It seems to see the scanner, but never the printer. HELP!

    I can't see my Canon MG5220 printer... Initially I was getting "there is a communication error" so I rebooted everything, reset the printing system, reinstalled the driver and still NO luck! I see no printers available in the Print & Scan area. If I click "+" it seems to see the scanner, but never the printer. HELP!

    The printer component uses a different protocol to advertise itself on the network compared to the scanner component and it can take several seconds longer to appear after the scanner has.
    That said, with the introduction of AirPrint, the MG should be seen as Bonjour Multifunction in the Add Printer window, as shown below.
    Selecting this Bonjour Multifunction entry will create a printer using AirPrint and a scanner using the iCA driver.
    So do you see the MG5220 as Bonjour Multifunction or just Bonjour?

  • Print Cartridge Error (Electrical Failed Pen)

    I'm using an HP Deskjet F4400 series, and I just replaced my empty black cartridge.  Prior to that, the color cartridge was around 75% full.  After installing the black cartridge, I have an error with the color cartridge, Print Cartridge Error (Electrical Failed Pen).  I found a thread that suggested cleaning the contacts, but I still have the same error, and cannot use the printer.  Please help!
    This question was solved.

    Hi, you could try doing a reset (check out this link ), then try to reseat the cartridges and perform an alignment (details here ). Does this solve the problem?
