Canon PIXMA MX860 driver problems with OSX 10.7.5

Somewhere along the road of updates, I have lost the ability to have my Canon PIXMA MX860 recognize the envelope feeder.  Does anyone have a suggestion what I need to do to get all of my printer's functions working again?  I am on OSX 10.7.5 with a 17" MacBook Pro.  I have also loaded the latest drivers that came from Apple updates.

Tested the Envelope facility in Word 2011 and I was able to print on the envelope loaded in the rear tray.
After I created my envelope I selected the Print button.
This made the normal print dialog appear. I clicked on the Copies & Pages menu and selected Quality & Media.
And from this pane I selected Envelope and Rear Tray. I then pressed Print and the address printed on the envelope.
This test was using the v10.72.1.0 driver for the MX860.

  • Connecting Canon Pixma MP980 to Macbook with OSX 10.4.11 wireless

    Hiya, just wondering if someone can help. I've gone through all the steps to set up the wireless connection. I'm stuck on the last set of steps where you add your printer through the Printer Utility.
    In the instructions it says that if you click "More Printers" it should show up in the list under "Canon IJ Network" but mine doesn't. Nothing shows up in the list. I've downloaded the latest driver from the Canon site, but that did nothing. The printer said its IP address was 10.1.1.4, so I tried to ping that, but it doesn't complete.
    Has anyone had any success with connecting them? Thanks.

    I can print/scan via USB fine, but when I turned the printer on this morning, the IP address and subnet mask in the LAN Settings List on the printer itself were blank (Settings > Device Settings > LAN Settings > Wireless LAN Settings List). In that settings list, it also says the connection is inactive. This is weird because those settings were fine last night after I ran the Network Utility again. It's like it just forgot the settings.
    I don't use those settings to print via USB, but I'm trying to figure out why when it's not connected via USB I can't add the printer to my "Print and Fax settings" under System Preferences, and therefore can't print wirelessly.
    Hope that explains it a bit more!
    My next step is to take it to a Canon service centre to see if there's a hardware problem, or just live with it. Makes me not want to buy Canon ever again though!

  • External Hard Drive Problem with OSX

    I bought an external hard drive so I could put all my old files on it and clean up my computer. I've put files on the external hard drive but now I try to drag and drop files onto the "external harddrive icon" and I get the following message:
    The item "Folder" could not be moved because "External Harddrive" cannot be modified.
    How do I correct this so I can Drag and drop Files onto the "External hardrive" icon??

    Hello! Do a "get info" on the hard drive and see if the ownership and permissions are set so you can copy to it. Check the "ignore ownership" and set to read/write. Tom

  • Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

    After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
    Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
    Problem:
    - New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions. 
    - When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi. 
    - The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install). 
    Solution:
    1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
    Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
    Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software  for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
    The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
    1 Printer Driver
    (Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
    2 Scanner Driver
    (Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
    3 Network Tool
    (Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
    Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
    4 Solution Menu
    (Canon Solution Menu Ver. 1.4.1 (27-Jul-2012 ))

    (Canon MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 (02-Auf-2012))
    6 Easy-PhotoPrint EX
    (Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX Ver. 4.1.6 (21-Jan-2013 ))
    Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
    http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
    Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
    1. Choose a product category
    Multifunctional Printers
    2. Choose a product series
      Pixma
    3. Choose a product model
      Pixma MX868
    4. Choose type of document
    Downloads or FAQ
    If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
    2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
    Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB.  Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’).  This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
    3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
    After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
    Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
    DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list).  The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
    You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
    If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List.  It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
    If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

  • Canon PIXMA MG6320 driver - Print problem

    Canon PIXMA MG6320 driver - New printer, Windows XP Pro and Excel 2000 - printing 4 into 1 only prints the first page and preview print prints all of the pages while displaying the preview.  Tried it with administrative rights and had the same problems.  
    Any thoughts or suggestions?
    Thanks  
    Tried reinstalling driver from the Canon website, the problem remains.

    Hi Rhinomopolis,
    The actual page that is printed should appear just like the print preview.  If there is a mismatch between the print preview and the final output, it could be related to a setting on the printer or some other type of issue (out of ink, for example).  If the page does not appear properly in the print preview, review the settings in your printing application and try again.

  • Canon PIXMA MX860 Error 311

    I recently bought a Canon PIXMA MX860. I want to print wirelessly via bluetooth from my computer, but an error message keeps on popping up "Error Number : 311 Printer is in use or an error has occurred. If an error has occurred eliminate the cause of the error."
    I updated to all the newest drivers. I tried looking at the gutenprint drivers, but I couldn't find one that works with the Canon PIXMA MX860. Any help would be much appreciated!

  • Canon PIXMA MX860 error message ScanGear

    When I click on my Scanner (I put MP Navigator EX in my Dock), the application opens, but then a window opens that states:
    ScanGear Searching for Scanners
    Do you want the application "MP Navigator EX 2.1 app" to accept incoming connections?
    I have to then click "Allow"
    Setting can be changed in the Firewall panel of Security & Privacy preferences.
    I have gone into the Firewall panel of Security & Privacy and added the scanner and the MP Navigator EX 2.1 app to allow incoming connections; I have also updated all software I could find relative to the Canon PIXMA MX860 on the Canon website.
    But every time I try to use my scanner, I have to click on the "Allow" button, as if I never changed the settings int he Firewall panel.
    It's not a big deal, just a nuisance to have to keep on clicking the Allow button every time I want to use the scanner.  Any thoughts?

    Driver problems with Windows Professional XP 64bit Edition

    Well, after looking around the forum here I found an answer that works! I wish I could remember who to give credit too though. I installed the latest Vista drivers and I got static all the time. I tried another members suggestion of disabling the X-Fi device in the Device manager every time I log off and then enable the X-Fi the next time I log in. I have great sound as long as I do that. Also, for connecting to a home system I am using the DTS-60, $00 on this website, but it works well if you havea DTS decoder. I am using the X-Fi extreme Music edition. Good Luck, hopefully another driver is on the way.

  • Canon Pixma MP495 not working with mini

    I'm trying to use the scanner on my Canon Pixma MP495 with my Mac Mini.  The printer works okay, but when I click on the scanner, I get an error that says reopeon or okay - MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly.

    I would like to add I might have the problem solved.
    I found an older Windows forum from 2009 where another person had a similar problem and it was suggested to use the add 'local printer'. Of course, the wizard set it up so not sure what it did but I did what they suggested and the scanner finally works. 
    Also, when I went to print something, the preview picture came up and the door to the printer popped open but one of my ink cartridges is out so it couldn't print.....bummer.
    At least I never got the 'driver not installed correctly' message.
    As soon as I get a chance to get some more ink and try it, I'll post the results.
    **fingers crossed it works**
    Thanks~

  • Canon PIXMA MX860 printer on Snow Leopard

    After upgrading from OS 10.4.11 Tiger to OS 10.6.4 Snow Leopard, my Ethernet connected MX860 stopped working. The original "PIXMA MX860 series Setup CD-ROM" returned an "unsupported" s/w error when started. After working with a Canon tech for a while and downloading the items below from the Canon web site, the MX860 is back in service and all appears fine. Note: some of the items were only downloaded for completeness and are not needed to drive the MX860 printer & scanner.

    Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    On OS X Server, you need to use the Server Admin utility (Applications > Server ) to share the local print queue. This requires the Print service to be added/started and then a queue created for the local printer.
    Seems unusual that you would want to share a wireless printer from the server. The MacBook 'clients' would still be able to connect directly to this printer without having to connect via the server share so without knowing all the details of your setup it just seems an odd requirement.
