Canon Pixma Pro9000 Version 2.23 Driver

Canon has released a new driver (2.23) for the Pixma Pro9000 to accommodate two new papers.
When I try and use the driver in LR the changes made for LR managed printing don't "stick". If I close and then reopen the driver the print quality reverts to the default and the color option changes from Custom-None back to Auto.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Has anyone found a solution?
Thanks.

It may be a little different with the 9000 as it is several models back by now. But what I explained should be close.

Canon Pixma Pro9000 XPS Driver

I get good colour reproduction from my Canonn Pixma Pro9000 printer with Photoshop managing colour. However when using the XPS driver version (which should give finer gradation of colour), this is not the case. I have been told by Canon that this is because the driver in Photoshop is the basic one, and that I should find the XPS driver on the Adobe site and download it. However, I have been unable to find the driver. Could you tell me how to locate it. Thanks. John Hallam

I've just started using the Canon Print Studio Pro module. It does much the same as EPPPro, which I've used for the last couple of years, but is laid out similar to Lightroom with all the settings down the right hand side and, for my purposes, has one big advantage in that you can save all your settings. I print albums for my work on A4 with a slightly unusual layout - prints are 270mm wide by 180mm high, centrered laterally but with different sized top and bottom margins and this is where Print Studio Pro scores - I can save not only the paper and print settings but also the layout too, a big time saving for me. I have a Colormunki and make my own icc files and find I don't need any offsets at all, output is a really good match to the profiled screen. Greys are the only thing which the Pro9000 struggles to match well so, when this printer dies, I'll probably invest in the Pro 100 with its two grey tanks. I'm hopeful, however, that that time is a long way off. Apart from the greys the Pro9000 II is a great printer for my purposes.

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.

10.5.8 to 10.4.11 with Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II

I want to print from my 10.5.8 Digital Audio to a Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II that I have attached via its USB2 card to my Yikes! G4 under 10.4.11. I am communicating with the Yikes! via a USB2 WAN wireless device, also plugged into the USB2 card.
I have the printer setup with drivers on both machines, and have the Yikes! 10.4.11 Printer Sharing turned on for the Canon. Also turned on Printer Sharing under my 10.5.8 Digital Audio.
On my DIgital Audio I have tried IP Printer setup, using the URL for the Yikes! and the computer's local host name. Everything seems to flow, except the job never starts on the printer. Just sits in the Canon's cue. I see the printer in the Printer lists.
Any hints? Need more info?

Its a Westell versalink DSL modem and ethernet router. Has wireless capability, which I was using on the Yikes!, until it looked like I could not use my new Canon printer off the Yikes!, unless I used the hardwired ethernet.
Not sure why I cannot see the printer from the Digital Audio under 10.5.8 on the Yikes! under 10.4.11 when my connection is via my wireless Airlink USB2 adapter. Maybe Printer Sharing is turned off for the wireless because it hasn't been turned on for it also ... was for the hard wired setup ... thought it carried over for the other ... checking ...

Canon Pixma MP800 gone after update driver

After speaking to Apple yesterday about a separate matter, I was talking to the tech support guy about not being able to scan wireless on my Canon MP800 but that I can print wirelessly. The printer not technically a wireless printer, but is found on network anyway when plugged into airport, the tech guy said I should be able to scan too. He suggested that I go on canon site and download latest print driver for my printer for OS X. I did this today as well as updated the other software it had available for updating. I installed as suggested, simple install, restarted computer as required, then tried to print and I cannot find my Canon MP800 anymore! Not in the printer menu. Can't find it by "add printer". Nowhere to be found! Any suggestions?

Regarding the scanning via Airport, this will not function due to driver constraints. The Canon scanning software only supports direct USB connections.
As for the printer, the following details the procedure for repairing faulty installations of the Canon PIXMA drivers.
1. Open Printer Setup Utility, click on Printer Setup Utility and select Reset Printing System.
2. Close the Printer Setup Utility.
3. Go to Library > Printers > Canon and delete the contents of the BJPrinters folder.
4. Go to Library > Receipts and delete the file/s Canon MP800 xxx.pkg
5. Empty the Trash
6. Restart the Mac
7. Install the latest version of the Canon driver. Check the Canon web site to ensure you have the latest version.
8. Once the driver installation is complete, go to Applications > Utilities and open Disk Utility. Run the Repair Disk Permissions option.
9. Open Printer Setup Utility and click Add.
10. Select the Default Browser view and select the Canon printer connected via the USB port. The Print Using menu should automatically change to Canon IJ Printer.
11. Click Add to add the printer.

Canon Pixma Pro9000. A4 paper doesn't feed properly.

Canon Pixma Pro 9000. A4 paper doesn't feed correctly. It feeds in on the right but not on the left, so that it crumples as it feeds and jams. A5 and 4x6 seem OK.

Try cleaning the rollers.

Turning off Colour Management in Canon Pixma Pro9000 mk 2 ??

Hi
In the Print area, Lightroom 4 says in italics at the bottom to turn off the colour management in the Print Dialog if you're chosing to print with a profile.
Can someone show me how to do this with my Canon Pro9000 mk2 via OSX Lion 10.7?
Being thick but can't work it out.
Thanks
Stuart

Hi Rikk
Thanks for that. Are you 100% sure though. I'm getting really poor results when I use the Canon Photo Paper Plus Semi Gloss ICC profile (with the right paper!) compared to letting the printer do the colour management. The colours look like they've been worked over twice with a horrible reddy pinky effect on skin tones. It's the same colour problem I had with Windows until I figured out how to turn it off manually.
Also not sure why Adobe would have the message on the Mac version of Lightroom if it was going to turn it off automatically anyway.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Stuart

My Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark 2 printer and red cast to prints

My Canon Pro9000 Mark 2 prints with a severe red cast on all prints. It has worked great for 3 years prior on my Mac. Just updated and installed Mavericks (OS 10) and believe that to be the culprit. Already checked ink tanks, ran printer head tests, cleaned and deep cleaned, and so forth. Does any Mac user (or other) know of a fix for this?

It may be a little different with the 9000 as it is several models back by now. But what I explained should be close.

Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark 2 - HELP! - switching off color management in the print dialog

Hello
I'm using Lightroom 5 to print. I'm selecting a custom profile in the print section and lightroom says in italics below
"when selecting a custom profile, remember to switch off color management in the print dialog."
Can someone explain to me how to do that?
I'm on a Macbook Pro running Yosemite.
Many thanks
Stuart

I am having trouble using my front loader tray on my canon pixma pro9000. The yellow lights blinks

i have the tray in the correct position and push the little green button when it comes on to insert paper but then the yellow light blinks and won't take the paper. Please help.
K

Hi kcp,
Do you happen to notice a pattern to the blinking lights? Maybe a series of flashes and then a pause? How many flashes between each pause? This information could point to specific error that we can troubleshooting. Also, since I'm asking questions: What operating system are you using?

Any printing issues CS4/PIXMA Pro9000/MAC OS 10.5?

I just installed CS-4 on my new MAC and encountered the dark print problems (on my HP printer) that I have read about here. I was planning on getting a Canon PIXMA Pro9000. Anyone have any experience with CS4 / MAC and this printer?

You can download the driver, install it and add printer to check the features. Make sure you can turn off CM etc.
The latest driver has a 12/18/2008 date so I would guess it works correctly.

Canon Pixma 9000

I have a Canon Pixma Pro9000 that is all of a suddent printing very lightly ink wise no matter how I set the paper and quality of print. I have updated the drivers, done all of the maintenance, and yet everything we print is super light. I tried going back to all of the printer defaults and even did a Windows System restore to a date prior to when we had the problem with no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

It is essential your monitor and your printer show the same thing. If this is not the case adjusting your printer is fruitless. Did you happen to change monitors recently?
There's no LCD screen (PictBridge operations are controlled through the camera's LCD) and no card reader. If you have such a camera ( PictBridge) try printing directly from it and see if the problem still exists.
Until you isolate whether it is a problem with the printer or your computer it will be like chasing your tail.

I want to use my canon pixma ip4500 as my printer with my good ole G4. I need a driver. Is there an easy way to get that or is my G4 too old?

I want to use my canon pixma ip4500 as my printer with my powerbook G4. I need a driver but was very confused with how to get one. Is it possible and could someone come down to my level and tell me step by step how to do it? Many thanks.

Nope, your PB is not too old.
Here is the link to the PIXMA ip4500 drivers on Canon's site:
Drivers & Software
The page has you first select your version of the Mac OS (10.4) from the pull-down "Chose Operating System" menu. Once selected, you'll see the available software, Click on the arrown next to "Drivers" and it should look like this:
(click image to enlarge if needed)
Click the word "Download " and you'll get the driver.
Note at the top of that image there are other links to other documents pertaining to this printer. If you click on "Brochures and Manuals," while you are on that web page, you'll have Canon's instructions, probably better done than by anyone here other than someone who has the same printer model on a Mac running OS 10.4.

My Macbook Pro will not find or use the downloaded driver for my new Canon Pixma MX479 wireless printer

I have been fussing for hours with a Canon Pixma MX479 printer I received as a gift. The printer was obviously designed for PC control, and has terrible instructions for setting up the wireless capability, but I finally found a few hints online about how to add a WPS printer to my Airport Extreme, so I can finally detect the printer. However, when I try to add the printer, either under System Preferences or while just doing a print, my MacBook requires that I download a driver from Apple to use it. When I attempt to do that, I get a message the driver software is unavailable from Apple and that I should contact the manufacturer for the driver. I have already downloaded and installed the Mac OS driver from Canon twice, but my MacBook apparently can't find it. So I am forced to use Airprint in order to communicate with the printer. I would like to use the proper software to make sure I am accessing all of the features the printer offers. Can anyone tell me how to associate the downloaded driver with my printer when I am attempting to add it?

Hi Dwntso!
Welcome to the Canon Forums and thanks for posting!
So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know any error messages you're seeing either on your computer or the printer, and the version of OS X you've got on your MacBook as well as the way you intend to connect to your printer (USB or networked via WiFi or Ethernet).
Any other details you'd like to give will only help the Community better understand your issue!

Thanks and have a great day!

Cannot find the installed driver for Canon Pixma ip6600D

Hello,
I'm pretty new with Mac and OS X and got one problem to use a previous installed driver.
First, please excuse my bad english, I'll do my very best
I've got a Buffalo Linkstation Live 320GB with implemented USB Ports.
You can take the USB Port to use with a printer.
The Linkstation will be a Windows Printserver.
I've connected a Canon Pixma ip6600D at USB Port one and all works fine with Windows XP and Vista via network.
Printing with this Network device uses Windows Network-printing like -> workgroup\buffalo\lp (lan printer)
With Windows this works very well. But now im using OS X Leopard.
So I've downloaded the Canon Mac OS X 10.5 Driver for the ip6600D (can be used for Network printing) and installed it.
OS X wants to reboot, so I think the extension is installed fine.
After this im going to "System adjustments" -> "Printers and Fax" -> "Windows" -> "Workgroup" -> "buffalo" -> "lp"
The Printer is found and here comes my problem: The ip6600D driver does not appear in the drop down list. Only Gutenprint ip6700.
I'm able to print with this driver, but it doesn't work very well and im not able to use CD printing.
So, wehere ist the ip6600D driver? Lost in nowhere?
If I want to search for the driver, nothing could be found.
Searching with Spotlight for ip6600 doesn't find something to use.
Only the installer image of the driver and some web links.
How do I choose the installed ip6600D driver?
Thank you much for any help.

Since there doesn't appear to be an iP6600 driver within the Gutenprint v5.1.3 list, then you could try one of the other iP models, like the iP5200. The key is to find a model that uses the same ink tanks as your iP6600D (and preferably the same engine but that is not as easy to find). If one of the other IP models doesn't help, then you could try the S800. With older versions of Gutenprint I would recommend this model as it would be good enough for text printing, but not that good for images.
If you are unable to find a compatible printer then you may have to look at changing some things. The Canon printer driver has not been designed to be used on the Mac OS X when the printer is being shared by Windows, hence the need to Gutenprint. If this model is not supported in later versions of Gutenprint, then you could look at using PrintFab (which you will have to pay for) or changing the network setup so that the printer is not connected to Windows, such as getting an Airport Express/Extreme. This would allow both OS's to connect to the printer using the Canon driver. Or you could connect the printer to the Mac and get Windows to connect to the Mac share using Bonjour for Windows.
