Canon Pixma  iP3000 and OS9

There's something strange about the OS9 driver of my Canon Pixma iP3000 printer. In OS X, I can easily view the remaining ink level information of my printer. In OS9, that option is not available. Curious, I could do that without problems in OS 9 with my old Epson 740 Stylus Color.

there are good drivers based on the japan canon drivers ... but there only debian packages and i was not able to convert them with deb2targz
maybe someone could help me

  • Yosemite printer driver for Canon Pixma IP3000

    This is not so much a question as a solution to getting my old Canon Pixma IP3000 working again after upgrading to Yosemite.
    Although the printer is listed, when I wanted to add it I found no software for it from Apple. Phoning Canon they also said they have no software for the IP3000 and Yosemite. To make a long story short, after much trial and error trying out other drivers which were listed on "choose driver" I found that the IP4500 driver can be configured for cassette feed AND duplex and works on Yosemite. Hope this helps someone else to keep some of the older products going in our throw away society!

    I just installed that driver on a 10.10 VM and also found that there is no Duplex Print & Margin menu - just Margin.
    I then installed it on a 10.8 VM to be sure the lack of the menu was not due to using the 10.8 driver on 10.10. However I found that even on 10.8, there was no Duplex Print & Margin. So it would seem that duplex printing was not an option for the iP3500.
    I then checked an alternate driver suite called Gutenprint and added the iP3500 Gutenprint printer. It also did not support the ability to print duplex.
    But when I added another printer, this time using the Gutenprint iP3000 driver, there was the ability to print two sided from the Layout menu. So then I thought it might be worth checking if the Canon iP3000 driver also provides a duplex setting, but the last supported OS for this model was 10.6 so I did not even try to install that old driver on 10.10.
    Here is a link to the Gutenprint driver if you would like to try that.

  • Canon Pixma IP3000 experiences?

    I have a Canon Pixma IP3000 here, and it's an awesome printer, except when I got it (I was still on Gentoo) I couldn't get it to work properly (no duplex support, bad colour prints), so I've been using it from the windows installation on my laptop. But since Arch is so awesome, I thought maybe it can work now. So, anyone have experience with running this printer?

    Downloaded Canon printer/scanner drivers for Canon PIXMA MP520 and MX860 on Mac Book laptop, and they worked.  However, when I downloaded the same two drivers on Mac Book Air, neither worked.

    I wasn't aware that VueScan charged a yearly license.
    You simply launch Image Capture and if the scanner is recognized it will be listed in the SHARED list in the left display column.  Select the scanner name and the app will start an overview scan.  You will also see a list of scanning options in the right display column (resolution, paper size, file output format, etc.
    The above description is when everything is working correctly, which has been the case for me.
    Good luck.

  • I have the latest mac desktop  op mountain lion,plugged in the canon pixma ip90v and get a message drawing too much power from usb and it won't work?

    I cannot get the canon pixma ip90v to work with the computer.I get a message about drawing too much power from the usb.

    You need to plug in the power cord that was included with the printer and then use it with USB, or use the power cord included with the printer and access it wirelessly from your iMac. I access my Canon MP560 wirelessly from my iMac, which works well. 

  • Canon Pixma MX700 and Adobe CS3

    I am having a printing problem...I can print from all programs but Adobe CS3products (InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat Professional, Illustrator). Anyone else having this problem? Or have a solution? Printing problem only seems to effect Adobe software products, I can print from other software. Running OSX 10.5.1 with Canon Pixma 700 Printer. Have heard that CS3 doesn't get along with 10.5. Any information would be helpful.

    rkaufmann87, thanks for the suggesstion.  Went throught the process but no luck.
    The printer is connected via USB.  I have checked the connections (and the cabling to see if there is a break of some kind) but they are all good both ends.  The printer works perfectly.  The problem is the scanner (thus I thought it was the drivers) MP Navigator looks for the scanner, cannot find it and give the error message says it cannot communicate with the scanner. 

  • Problems with AEX, a Canon PIXMA MP530 and German 1&1/Telekom DSL

    Got a new printer today - a Canon PIXMA MP530. It prints directy via USB.
    I would like to use it connected to by Airport Express.
    I know, only the printing will work - that's okay for now.
    It does print, if I use the AEX Firmware version 6.3.
    Unfortunately though, with 6.3 my DSL connection with German Telekom and 1&1 ceases to work.
    Going back to Firmware 6.1.1 my DSL is back on, but as soon as I connect the USB cable to the printer, nothing goes: neither printing, nor DSL.
    Any advise?

    Agreed.
    And while I'm not expecting my MP780's scanning feature to work via the AEBS, I would expect--and I think reasonably so--for the print function to at least work.
    I'm just hoping that it's a matter of an update to the driver or firmware to get it to work as intended.
    Aloha!

  • Canon Pixma MG7120 and OS 10.9.1

    I am in search of a new printer that is compatible with OS X Mavericks.  Been looking at the Canon Pixma MG7120 but hard to find on amazon or canon website if this printer is fully compatible 10.9.1.  Anyone know from firsthand experience or otherwise?  Thanks.

    It's not shown on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669, but Canon shows the MG7100 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.84.2.0  supports OS X 10.7/10.8/10.9.

  • No duplex on Canon PIXMA iP3000 via Printer Sharing

    Hi there folks,
    since upgrading my MacBook to 10.6, I can no longer print duplex on the iP3000 shared from the office iMac G5 (running 10.5.8) via Airport.
    Here are the options so far:
    1. Default printer driver:
    The default printer driver ("IP3000") simply doesn't show the duplex option in the printer dialog's drop-down menu.
    2. Manually updated and selected Canon's own driver:
    I've updated the Canon drivers to 2.2 from the Apple Support Downloads and manually selected the appropriate driver (version 10.26.1.0 - definitely the latest one), but the printer will invariably attempt to print the job "Supply Levels" before I can even attempt to print anything and then pause the queue.
    The Print dialog now shows the proper duplex option, though.
    But attempting to print tells me that the printer is "Printing…", but nothing ever happens.
    3. Gutenprint driver:
    Doesn't give me the duplex option, either. Attempting to print results in supposedly successful completion of the print job, but nothing ever arrives at the printer.
    Option (1) is the only one that works, and NO DUPLEX. Waaaaahhhhhh...
    Any ideas, or should I just file a bug on the Feedback page?

    Well, technically there has been an update because Canon has supplied the v10.26 driver to Apple. As to why they have not provided the driver on their web sites is an unknown.
    The drivers Apple supplies for 10.6 obviously follow a completely different numbering scheme and are obviously a completely different development branch from the 10.5 and previous drivers.
    No, the version is set by Canon, not Apple. And the so-called CUPS driver was made by the same department as the older Carbon drivers.
    In other words:
    Either: It's not a bug, the **** thing simply isn't fully supported anymore, as there is no current driver for 10.5.
    Or: This is something that CAN be fixed in the 10.6 drivers.
    One solution could be to install the same version of Gutenprint driver on 10.5 and 10.6. The Sourceforge site has v5.2.4 available for both platforms.

  • Canon PIXMA 860 and 560 not recognized by Image Capture

    I can scan from the printers to my MacBook. And I go to System Prefernces / Printers and Faxes and both are shown as printers and as scanners. I can open from their and scan but when I open image capture it doesn't find any scanners.
    I down loaded and installed both the newest canon printer and scanner drivers as well as the newest ICA driver. Still they are not recognized.
    What am I missing?

    Just for testing purposes, I removed the canon printer, removed all canon software and updates from my system and then used the original CD that came with my 870 to reinstall the printer and lo and behold, Image Capture started working again for wireless scanning.
    Hello and thanks for the feedback.
    There are two scanner drivers available for many of the new models of Canon AIOs. There is the ICA driver and the Canon scanner driver.
    During my tests on clean builds of 10.6.x I found that my Canon AIOs were able to print and scan via wireless by simply installing the Canon update provided by Apple. This update consisted of the then latest printer driver for many models of Canon AIO and inkjet and the ICA driver. Canon's scanner driver was not included as part of this download from Apple.
    The ICA driver is installed in HD > Library > Image Capture > Devices and the package is called Canon IJScanner1. Later versions of the ICA driver also installed another package, Canon IJScanner2. These ICA drivers provide a minimal amount of scanning selections and only appear to work with Image Capture and Preview. Other applications like Canon's own MP Navigator and Adobe Acrobat Pro will not scan with just the ICA driver installed. The Canon scanner driver for the respective model is required.
    From what you have said and from my own testing I propose that the original CD did not contain the ICA driver but the Canon scanner driver for the MX870. And with only this driver installed you were able to scan using Image Capture via the wireless. I don't recall ever testing a 10.6 build where only the Canon scanner driver was installed and not the ICA driver (it is present by default on 10.6 but only has older models of Canon AIO's - your MX870 is not there). Had I tested this I believe that I would have been able to scan via wireless using Image Capture.
    I also propose that once you installed the Canon v2.4.1 update, which contains a version of the ICA driver package that is also available from Canon web sites, then Image Capture stopped using the Canon MX870 scanner driver and used the ICA driver instead, thus stopping you from wireless scanning.
    Right now I am using a new build of 10.6.6 on my MBPro. So that I could print to my MP990 at home and an MG6150 at work I simply installed the v2.4.1 update and have printer and scanner queues in Print & Fax for both. I have not installed scanner drivers for either device and at home with my MP990 Image Capture does not show any device being available, while Preview does show the MP990 once I select 'Import from Scanner > Include Networked Devices'. Also, Acrobat Pro 9 does not show my MP990 being available.
    And with regards to the v2.4.1 update, the drivers included are provided by Canon to Apple, just as the other vendor drivers are provided to Apple, to make life easier for us Mac users. The drivers are available individually and get downloaded and installed automatically when the respective model is connected to the Mac and no local driver is present. As for the package including all these individual vendor drivers, this would be created by Apple.

  • OS X 10.6.1, Canon Pixma MP600R, and wireless Airport Extreme Base Station

    I can't get my MacBook Pro on OS X 10.6.1 to recognise my Canon MP600R printer via my AEBS. There was no problem with its predecessor, an iBook on Tiger.
    As well as the MacBook I've got a PC on XP Home + SP3. The setup I'm aiming for is USB access to the MP600R from the PC and wireless access from the MacBook. At present I've got USB access from both machines.
    Having got into a mess with a previous attempt to set up wireless access from the MacBook I did the following:
    1) Deleted the MP600R from both machines.
    2) Reset the LAN Settings in the MP600R via its control panel.
    3) Reinstalled the MP600R software on the PC.
    4) Reinstalled the MP600R via USB on the PC.
    5) Reinstalled the CUPS printer driver 10.26.1 from the Canon website on the MacBook.
    6) Reinstalled the MP600R via USB on the Macbook.
    Both machines can now print to the MP600R successfully if I plug its USB cable into the machine - via a hub for the PC, directly for the MacBook.
    I tried to follow the advice given by Pahu on 30 October in response to similar problems encountered by Tommisauce. See the last post in:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2209420&tstart=0&messageID=104 93384#10493384
    I did the following:
    7) Connected the MP600R via USB to the MacBook
    8) Preferences / Print & Fax / selected MP600R / Options & Supplies / Utility / Open Printer Utility / selected Network from drop-down list (under USB).
    Nothing happened - the Printer List window was empty and the Network Setting and Maintenance buttons were greyed out.
    I tried:
    9) Preferences / Print & Fax / clicked on + to add a printer / selected Default.
    No printer appeared in in the panel under Printer Name.
    I printed the MP600R's LAN Settings via its control panel. It reported Wireless LAN enabled, Wired LAN enabled, and Printer Access Control off (it's also off in the AEBS at present).
    On the MacBook there is no Canon IJ Network Utility. On the Canon website the only software which would work with OS X 10.6, apart from the CUPS printer driver, was MP Navigator, which I don't need on the MacBook.
    I would be grateful for any advice on what to try next. I don't have a very firm grasp of what's going on, but try to follow instructions carefully.
    Hopefully, Seamus O'Connell

    Hello Seamus,
    I think the issue you have is being caused by the Canon IJ Network Tool missing from your 10.6.1 Mac. I have done another clean install of 10.6.1 today on my test Mac and can see that the tool is not included by default. So this is probably the cause of the Network Settings button being disabled. You can download the tool via this link.
    However, if the printer already has an IP address set, I thought that you would not need the tool. Again from my testing, I was able to connect to my MP980 connected via wireless to my Extreme without the IJ Tool being installed. I found that with the new v10.26 driver installed, the printer would eventually appear in the Default browser view after a short period of time. This delay caused some drama for users, as the scanner would appear in the view quickly, while the printer could take up to 10 seconds to appear. Also, with 10.5, the process to add the printer was via the More Printers > Canon IJ Network setting. This changed with 10.6, however Canon failed to mention this on their support web site.
    Anyway, install the v2.7.0 IJ Network Tool and see if that helps to get you going again. Pls reply if you still need help.

  • How can I get two-sided print on Canon Pixma IP3000  with Snow Leopard?

    I've just upgraded to Snow Leopard and find that duplex printing is no longer available. How do I get it back?

    You should have a menu item called Duplex Printing and Margin. This is part of the v10.26 driver that is provided via Software Update.
    This was the same menu item that was available with the v4.8.3 driver that was included with OS X 10.5. If you were not using this menu previously with 10.5 then maybe you were using the iP3000 Gutenprint driver?
