Canon pixma mx435 halts on os x 10.8.3

Hi, I recently bought a new imac, and since then my scanner -Canon pixma mx435 halts half way through the scan, and won't complete it. I have to force-quit the scanning software (any kind of scanning software - either the one which came with the scanner or a different one) I have all the recent drivers from Canon website, (which support 10.8.3). This doesn't happen if I connect the machine to my older imac with an older OS. Any ideas?
Thanks!

There are two scanner drivers for many of the Canon multifunction devices. One is known as an ICA driver and this is used by Image Capture and Preview. The other scanner driver is a TWAIN driver that you use for scanning with MP Navigator and TWAIN applications like Acrobat Pro and Photoshop.
If you are having problems with using both drivers, ie. scanning with Image Capture and MP Navigator, then it would generally rule out it being a driver issue and more to do with the network connection. So working on the latter premise, if you open a web browser and enter the IP address of the MX as the URL, this will connect to the internal web page of the MX and the default page shows the wireless signal strength and S/N ratio. What values do you have?

Unable to print with my Canon PIXMA IP 4700 and JetDirect network appliance

After many tries I decided to post my question.
I have a Canon PIXMA IP 4700 connected to the network with a Jetdirect 175X box. So I tried to add a new printer with a "HP Jetdirect Socket" port. I have previously installed the driver from the official website. The test page is staying on the spooler.
I also tried with LPD port (supported by the Jetdirect box) and IPP but nothing is working.
When the printer is directly connected with USB, it's working fine. Printing from my others Windows computers is working fine too since many months.
Thank your for your help.

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Your problem is being caused by the Canon driver. It cannot be used when the printer is connected to the USB port of a 3rd party print server, or if shared by Windows.
The solution is to use a driver like Gutenprint or PrintFab. Gutenprint is preferred because it is free (it ships with OS X) however the iP4700 is not listed as a supported model. The iP4600 is listed so you could try selecting this model in the Print Using menu (shown as Canon PIXMA iP4600 - Gutenprint v5.2.3). If the iP4600 Gutenprint driver does not work that well then you could look at using [PrintFab|http://www.printfab.net] which does support the iP4700. It costs €49 but there is a 30 day trial so at least you can try it before committing to buying.
Another option would be to use a Airport device, like the Express, instead of the Jetdirect print server. With the printer connected to its USB port you can then use the Canon iP4700 driver on the Mac.

Installed a wireless canon Pixma MX432 printer back in November for use with my Mac Book Air. All was working normally until this past week when I began getting a message, "printer not connected." What is going on? Netgear Wireless N Router seems to be ok

My new canon Pixma MX432 printer is not printing. It was printing fine until about ten days ago. I use a Netgear Wireless N router, which is also new. What do I need to do. I get a message when trying to print that says "printer not connected." In addition, my old Gateway laptop will still print fine apparently because it has a cable connection to the printer. Puzzled!

Have you tried rebooting the router? I would unplug it, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. Be sure you know the password etc. if that doesn't work, try unplugging and rebooting the printer. Good luck!

Being new to working with Mac, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to set my Mac Book Pro wirelessly to the Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark ll? My husband had gotten this printer and the sales person said that it can be set up wirelessly to my Mac Book Pro

Being new to working with a Mac, I was wondering if anyone can tell me step, by step on how to set up my Mac Book Pro(Mid 2012) wirelessly to a Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark ll that my husband had gotten me? Sales person told him that it's compatiable to my Mac Book Pro, Mtn Lion, but I do not see it and I don't see how to do it wirelessly. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks ;o)

Hello:
There is nothing wrong with asking questions. There are no dumb questions....answers, yes, but not questions.
If you set up your wi-fi router to establish a network, then both your printer and MacBook Pro will connect wirelessly. *** I do not know what kind of router you possess, I don't want to suggest things that might not be relevant.

The printer and Adobe elements were brand new. The printer works with
other programs. It never worked.

Have you ruled out an issue with the driver for the printer? It is possible that the material on the installation disk was developed prior to PSEv.12. I understand that everything is new, but who knows what the date of production is. You can check on Canon's web site for driver update.

Printing to Windows Printer (Canon Pixma iP1500)

I have a Canon Pixma iP1500 connected to my Windows PC, shared on my home network. On my MacBook I can see the Windows PC and can even see the printer but when I add it the model doesn't show up in the list of printer types.
If I plug in the printer directly to the MacBook it works fine but not across the network.
I have searched the forums and found some suggestions, none of which work. I even tried something called "PrintFab" and it doesn't work either.
This is so frustrating. I'm a new Mac user and I want to be able to print from my MacBook without having to plug it into the printer.
Any suggestions?

Greg
I too am new to Mac. I downloaded and installed the printfab trial version and followed the instructions included. This problem has been driving me nuts for several days now... My MBP now see's and PRINTS great so far, thanks for your post and help!!

Is there a way to print from ipad 4 to a non AirPrint printer? I have a Canon Pixma MP 620 wifi which works fine with my PC but I don't want to buy a new printer. Is there an app for this or adaptors which could work? thank, Ric

Printopia is another option but be aware that since these solutions effectively act as a print server and AirPrint receiver, they require a computer to be running on the same WiFi network.
Canon also has a couple of apps in the App Store that might facilitate this on non-AirPrint printers. Check out...

Canon PIXMA MP640 WiFi on Arch Linux x86_64

I have a Canon PIXMA MP640 series multifunctional device connected wirelessly to my home router. On Windows Vista the device works flawlessly, I can print or scan without any problems. Now I decided to configure at least the printer part on my Arch Linux x86_64, which I dual-boot with Vista on the same laptop.
I went through the Wiki entry for CUPS and SAMBA. I did install all the necessary packages, that is:
1) cups (ver. 1.4.6), ghostscript (ver. 9.01), gsfonts (ver. 1.0.7pre44) - for CUPS
2) cnijfilter-mp640 (ver. 3.20) and its dependencies: cnijfilter-common (ver. 3.00), lib32-libcups, lib32-popt - drivers for this particular model
3) samba (ver. 3.5.6) and gamin (ver. 0.1.10) – for SAMBA
Then I added cups and samba to DAEMONS section of the /etc/rc.conf file
DAEMONS=(@syslog-ng !network @netfs @crond hal alsa wicd bluetooth laptop-mode !openntpd @cups @samba)
copied Samba configuration file
cp /etc/samba/smb.conf.default /etc/samba/smb.conf
in which I changed only one entry – name of my workgroup, and then I restarted my system.
In System Settings as root I went to Sharing→Samba and checked if everything seems fine – see print screen below.
http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/300/samba1.png
Then in Printer Configuration I chosed New network printer and I tried to fill all the boxes with information I have about my printer – see below. I also pointed to the specific .ppd file - /usr/share/cups/model/canonmp640.ppd.
http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6650/samba2.png
The printer name and it's localization I got from my router – see below.
http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/3982/samba3.png
As you all see on print screen No 2 I'm getting “Bad URI – need printer name” error from CUPS. I “googled” about it, but still haven't been able to solve this issue. What am I doing wrong?

No hints??? I believe it's related to Samba. I don't know how to configure it properly, so it can find my WiFi printer.

Where can I find a tutorial for the Canon Pixma MG6220

I am unable to make full use of the Canon Pixme MG6220 I purchased a few weeks ago. I am an 85 year old geezer and my old printer was pretty straight forward but had limited features whereas this Pixma 6220 is a great machine but I find it most intimidating to use some of its features and have had no luck in finding a tutorial online-------can anyone help me?????

I dont know how I did it: I have found the manual, but it's extremely confusing. I am 70, not quite as old as the questioner. I find this manual has too much content and I cannot find what I need (like almost every web page!).
We just bought the pixma MG6220 and have installed the driver on both our computers, and it's supposed to work wirelessly, and it does. Mine is a macbook air and we had to use the external drive to do the installation.
But when it came to scanning photos in order to add them to the digital ones, the scanner could only find my husband's PC, not my macbook. I understand that you cannot simultaneously use both computers to scan. Do I have to switch off the other computer to use mine? Or do I have to attach the laptop with a wire to the printer. My laptop is near the new printer, but the husband's PC and modem are further away - but they work. I have spent several hours trying to solve this, which should have a very simple answer, but can find nothing. I didn't understand 99 per cent of the content of the manual, which is very disempowering. Could it not "hide" the more obscure content and make it accessible via specific links. I do not want to plug in the external drive every time I want to use the scanner or printer (I lose the mouse function).
I also find it hard to navigate these community pages! What is tagging?

Airport Extreme no longer sees my Canon PIXMA MX 700

I have used my Airport Extreme to print wirelessly with my Canon PIXMA MX 700. 2 Macbooks and 1 PC Windows Vista have successfully done so for several months. I just upgraded to Leopard, and now Airport can't see the Canon; the other Macbook came with Leopard and had no problems printing. I've downloaded all appropriate updated drivers from Canon. The printer does print if hardwired with USB to each computer. Any ideas?

Problem solved. I had to reset the Airport Extreme to it's factory settings.

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.

My new HP Pavilion desktop has no usb connection option for my old Canon Pixma iP 2600 printer

Greetings:
I can no longer locate the installation disk for my my old Canon Pixma iP 2600 printer. I'm able to install it w/the add a printer feature in the control panel, but the desktop fails to read that the printer is connected via usb cord. I'm not finding any option to install it as a usb printer. Please help asap. I can't afford to replace the printer, and I have several documents I have to print today or early tomorrow, or there will be dire financial complications for me. I NEVER had this problem w/Dell. (the operating system is windows seven, which is exactly what i was running on my older dell model - i have searched this forum and located a similar question, but that querent was able to find a usb option in the drop down menu for port installation. that option is absent in my attempts).
Thank you!
