    Hi wendasa,
    If you have any antivirus or firewall programs on your computer, please temporarily disable them and then try to scan again.  Sometimes these programs can block the scanning process of the printer.  If you are still unable to scan, we can try scanning using the Microsoft Paint program to see if the scanner function of the printer is working.  To attempt to scan using Microsoft Paint, please follow these steps:
    1.  Launch Windows Paint by pressing the Windows Key+ R, then typing mspaint, then clicking OK.
    2.  Once inside of Paint, in the upper left corner you will see a blue square; please click on that and select FROM SCANNER OR CAMERA.  A window will appear asking you what device you want to use.  Please select the PIXMA MX360, then press the OK button.
    3.  In the next window, you should have the option of selecting a document type; please select one, then press the SCAN button in the window.
    Are you able to scan using Microsoft Paint?

  • Trouble installing canon pixma mp500--please help!

    I have OS X 10.4.11 (that's tiger, I think), and I cannot figure out how to connect my Canon Pixma MP500. This printer model is not one the computer automatically knows how to connect to, so I installed the printer driver. I first installed it through the CD ROM that came with the printer, then when I had no luck with that I went to the Canon website and downloaded the most recent driver file for the printer. Both times, it seemed as though it would work, because: the files loaded onto the computer without problem; the printer browser window lists the MP500 as a possible printer to add; in the "print using" box, it lists "Canon IJ Printer" as an option (which it did not give as an option prior to downloading the printer driver). Yet, when I click "Add," it thinks for a few minutes then gives me an error message saying there was a problem trying to add the printer (error code -9672). I have not been able to find anything helpful from the Canon support website.
    All I can say is "arg"! I have definitely reached the end of my problem-solving capabilities.

    You can delete those three .pkg files from the Receipts folder. The following instructions are for removing an HP driver, but the steps can apply to the Canon driver as well. I've substituted Canon for the older HP references that originally appeared. I did not create these instructions. They were posted some time ago by another user in a different forum. (In a galaxy far, far away.)
    These steps will delete the necessary files to be able to install the software package to your operating system.
    Resolution:
    Deleting the Current driver (drivers) and preferences:
    1. Save all work and close all applications.
    • Open the Macintosh Hard Drive.
    • Open the Library folder on the Macintosh Hard Drive
    • Open the Printers folder in the Library folder
    • Open the Canon folder in the Library folder.
    • In the Canon folder there should be a Pixma or MP500 folder. Drag this folder to the trashcan.
    Note: There is no need to empty the trash after this step.
    2. Close all windows that are open at this time and reopen the Macintosh Hard Drive.
    • Open the Users folder on the Macintosh Hard Drive.
    • Open your user file in the Users folder. The one with the little house beside it.
    • In the Little House there should be another Library folder. Open this folder.
    • Open the Preferences folder that is located in this Library folder.
    • In the Preferences folder locate all the files that start with com.apple.print. and drag them into the trash.
    WARNING: This will delete all your printing preferences for all printers.
    3. Close down all the windows that you have open.
    Install the downloaded Driver.
    4. Once the driver is completely downloaded to your computer, double click on the file.
    • It will mount the disk image and open a window with the installer in it. Double click on the installer in the new window
    • Enter an Administrator name and password for the installer and click continue.
    • Click continue on the opening page for the HP Inkjet Installer
    • Read the license agreement and click Accept to continue.
    • Click Continue to the Read Me file.
    • Select Easy Install from the drop down menu in the top left corner and click the install button.
    • When the installer is finished click Quit.
    Adding the Printer to the Printer Setup Utility
    5. Open the Printer Setup Utility if it was not automatically opened by the Inkjet installer
    • Open the Macintosh Hard Drive. Open the Applications Folder. Open the Utilities folder. Double click on the Printer Setup Utility
    • Delete any existing Canon MP500 series printers that may have been added automatically by the Operating System. Click on the name of the printer and click the Delete button in between the Add button and the Utility button at the top of the current window.
    • Add the printer to the Printer Setup Utility by clicking the Add button at the top of the current window.
    • Select USB from the drop down box at the top of window. NOTE: For the 5850 you will want to select rendezvous or hp IP printing if it is connected through one of it's network connections.
    • Wait until the system prompts you to reload the browser, due to knew printer drivers being detected. Click OK to reload the browser.
    • Click the Canon MP500 printer from the box below. Then click the Add button at the bottom of the page.
    These instructions were written for Panther, so some steps may be different in Tiger, but the general process should be about the same.

  • Printer (Canon Pixma iP6600d) setup help iMac, TC, and Windows XP laptop

    So here's my issue: I have my Canon printer connected to my time capsule. It shows up in airport utility as being connected. I have it set up on my iMac (ethernet connection to the TC) as the default printer, and there are no issues. I have a windows XP laptop (work computer) connected via wireless to the internet via the TC (Airport). Bonjour, running on the windows laptop does not see/recognize any available printers when I run the wizard. So, even though it appears to be set up as a shared printer, I can't get to it wirelessly from my PC. Please help!

    Open Control Panel > Windows Firewall. If you have the firewall enabled, check that the setting "Don't allow exceptions", located under the General tab, is not enabled.
    Also, if the firewall is enabled, click the Exceptions tab and ensure you can see Bonjour in the list and it is enabled (tick in the box).
    Actually, as a brief test, you could disable the firewall to see if this is the cause of the printer not appearing. A working PC will show the Airport printer immediately after searching.

  • My new Canon Pixma 7250 wireless printer can no longer find my wireless network. My MAC is, Yosemite 10.10.2. I've run diagnostics and Canon LAN printer setup routine many time. Is there a solution? Can anyone help?

    My new Canon Pixma 7250 wireless printercan no longer find my wireless network. (It worked fine until recently) I have a Yosemite 10.10.2. I've run diagnostics and the Canon LAN printer setup routine many times. Is there a solution? Can anyone help?

    Turn of the MG and unplug the power cord. Leave it off for about a minute and then reconnect the power cord and turn the power back on. Wait while the device attempts to reconnect to your wireless network - the blue wifi symbol on the MG will flash and then stay on once it has connected. If it keeps flashing then you will have to reconnect the MG to your wireless access point via the control panel on the MG.

  • I desperately need help installing Canon Pixma ip6000D printer in Windows 7 64-bit

    My software CD (drivers, etc.) will not work with Windows 7 64-bit. I have tried running it in Windows XP compatibility mode, but it says it is made for 32-bit and will not work with 64-bit. Canon's website says it has an add-on module, but it doesn't have
    the printer driver, and it says "Your printer must be installed via Microsoft Update before you download and use this module." I have tried to find a way to install the printer via Microsoft Update, But I can't find any information
    about how to do this.
    I have also done searches for the canon pixma ip6000d drivers for windows 7 64-bit, but all the results I have seen say that they are an add-on modules.
    I would GREATLY appreciate any help with this.

    After doing some more digging, I found a solution, and hopefully it will help anyone else who is having problems. Go to this page:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Install-a-printer
    You can manually install the printer by following these instructions. If the model of your printer does not show (mine didn't), click the update button. It will take several minutes (maybe longer if you have a slow internet connection), but eventually it
    will bring up a new list of printers. Just choose your printer and follow the instructions. My printer is working fine now.

  • HELP!! Canon Pixma MG2220 has no response when I select print or try a test page

    I recently bought a Canon Pixma MG2220 printer for my home. When I installed the software and hooked it up to my laptop (toshiba with windows 7) and selected 'print' to try it out, nothing happens. The display just keeps flashing oddly like in a circle and nothing prints. When i tried a test print to diagnose the problem, nothing also. I tried several times yesterday and when I turned the printer on today it spit out the test page from yesterday. Am I missing something? I don't really know much about printers or drivers... Is it something simple that I keep overlooking?

    Hi Tiffany11x,
    The spinning symbol you see is the printer processing your data from the computer.  Since it is taking a long time to print a test page, we could be dealing with a communication issue.  Have you tried a different USB cable?  A shorter good quality cable around 4 feet is ideal.  Also, try connecting the printer to different USB ports on your computer to see if that helps.
    Finally, to ensure that the hardware is functioning properly, make a basic black and white copy with your PIXMA MG2220.  Keep an eye out for the spinning symbol again.  A normal copy should only take a few minutes to process.
    If you have any other questions, please feel free to Contact Us!

  • Please help me, How to connect my printer Canon pixma MP160 to my mac OS X Yosemite?

    please help me, How to connect my printer Canon pixma MP160 to my mac OS X Yosemite?

    You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.

  • HELP!!!--- Canon Pixma MG5420 Mac OS X 10.5.8 PowerPC Universal Binary Print Driver...... ---

    Greetings Everyone!
    I am a bit miffed at the moment.
    I purchased a Canon Pixma MG5420 Print-Copy-Scan machine with the intention of using it with my Power Mac G5, PowerPC, Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    But alas. Apparently it is not to be. The box in which the printer came cleary displays the Mac Logo and the Universal Logo, the Universal Logo looking like this:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_binary
    The Mac OS X system requirements also notate the OS X to be a minimum of 10.5.8!
    The driver CD only contains drivers for Mac OS X Intel.
    So Someone....ANYONE!....please tell me why Canon has stooped to this low level of "False Advertising"???
    Let's FLAG this issue and find out WHY!
    NEED HELP!
    ....and could use working drivers!

    IT"S OFFICIAL!---> Canon has stopped porting any of their drivers to the Universal Binary format for MAC OS X which is a combo installer for PowerPC and Intel machines.
    The MG5420 MFP that I have was released in December 2012 and they *said* that I was the first person to "complain" of this issue!....REALLY!?!?....wow...so there is no one else out there using the PowerPC platform??? I find the G5 (model M9592LL/A) to be quite adequate and useable for what I do!  I guess the engineers couldn't be bothered to "port" it to the PowerPC platform!  Listen Canon, if you don't think the PowerPC is still useable, go visit http://www.macofalltrades.com/ and watch the "trend" of what sells and what doesn't.....or maybe you should call another authority of Apple products http://www.macsales.com/ and ask what volume of PowerPC compatible parts they sell?!  
    And Canon, I know you offered to buy back this "mistake", but for the $99 I bought it at, (extra set of ink not included) I may just hold on to it and do the "workaround" of scanning to and printing from a Windows XP PC shared folder...No, Canon, I'm not completely stupid!....I set-up MFP's for my job, so I know a little bit about networking!  ...enough to be dangerous, at least!  ;-)   Any way, I just got this G5 a year or so ago and it is new to me...I probably wait a little longer and then get an Intel Mac, and THEN it will work natively with this INTEL CANON!....LOL!
    What do you think?!.....Thoughts?.....Ideas?
    Oh, and Canon.....get your "engineering" team and your marketing "box makers/printers" in Thailand to get their "info" to correspond and be accurate....that way there will be no false advertising and misrepresentation of Apple's "Intellectual Property" and "breach of contract!.....You darn well know they have an "Image" to uphold!
    https://developer.apple.com/softwarelicensing/agreements/maclogo.html
    CHEERS!
    PS--you better watch your back Canon on this little faux pas!....Epson might use this to their advertising advantage!....they still support Universal Binary!

  • Help with Canon Pixma MP640

    Hi all,
    Okay let me run down the steps I've done so far and what I've learned. Apparently the newest version of cups does not work with Canon printers it seems, because of an issue with usblp.
    First I got a version of Cups from the AUR with usblp enabled. The package is cups-usblp 1.4.3-2.
    Next I followed a guide about Arch and the MP640 here.
    The good news is that now my printer is recognized and it appears that all is well. However, when I try to print a test page (as Root) or try to print something from Kword I get the error:
    "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij failed"
    The pstocannonij file exists and I have the correct ppd installed. I'm running Arch64 and I have all of the 32bit libraries installed. I have the cups and usblp daemons active in my rc.conf.
    Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance!

    I've recently bought a Canon PIXMA MP640 multifunction device and it's working perfectly on my Vista 32-bit system. Now it's time to make it work on Arch 64-bit. Is it possible to make this device work without using any 32-bit libraries? I would like my system stay clean off any 32-bit software. Unfortunately on Canon website drivers for this model are still signed as TBD, although I've found this and this.

    HOW CAN I FIX MY PIXMA CANON WITH OUT THE CD

  • Canon Pixma Printer prints from Windows, but not from iMac PLEASE HELP!

    I have a Canon Pixma IP-400 USB printer connected via Airport Express Base Station. I can print just fine from my Windows computer, but when I attempt to print from my iMac, I get +"Error Nubmer : 300 The printer does not respond. Make sure that the printer is plugged in, powered-on, and properly connected to your computer"+ The printer is +plugged in, powered-on,+ and +properly connected+.
    The weirdness is that I can connect the printer directly to the iMac and it prints just fine! I tried replacing the cables (both USB and power cables) to no avail. The iMac prints fine to our other (laser) printer on a different Airport Express Base Station.
    Any suggestions? Thank you!!

    See my post "Need help to get printer to work".
    I get the same message whenever I try to print.
