Canon printer IP6700D

My printer no longer works since i did the update with os x yosemite. It says that i need the CD rom but i haven't had that in years and this is all the information i get when i go to the website for canon but doesn't help at all. what do I do now?

Bruce -- I have a 6700D as well. As I recall it does not automatically print wirelessly. You have to buy a Canon gizmo to plug into the front of the computer to let it print wirelessly. Have you tried that?

Canon printer driver won't load

I just purchased a Canon PIXMA iP6700D photo printer. The driver installation disk (Easy Setup icon) takes me past the administrator login, but does not install the driver. Also tried installing from the driver folder on the CD, same thing. So, thinking the CD-ROM might be defective, I downloaded the driver from canon's site; same thing.
After checking the posts here regarding problems with drivers, I followed the procedure to get rid of old drivers in the Library folder and restart. No go.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks, after posting my question I called Canon tech support, and that was their solution as well. I did that, and I'm happily printing now! What a relief.

How can I set up a Canon printer on iMac with cd? (iMac has no cd/dvd drive?)

Purchased the latest iMac with no dvd drive; also purchased a Canon printer with dvd set-up; how can I install printer on iMac?

Macs do not usually need to download anything from the CDs that come w/printers. Read the user manual that came w/the printer and/or contact Canon Support.
Or purchase an external burner. Do not purchase Apple's usb burner. 3rd party burners are 110% better.

I'm trying to share a new Canon printer wirelessly between my HP laptop and my iMac. I've successfully printed from both computers, but, I get errors trying to print on one after I've printed on the other. Any ideas on how to get them to both to print?

I installed a new Canon printer several months ago that I was told by the salesman could be shared between my iMAC and HP laptop. I have successfully used the printer wirelessly from both computers, however, it gets hung up switching between the two and I'm not sure what to do to get it to be consistent. Any ideas?

You didn't state how it's connected to each computer, if it's connected through your router then it should work. If it doesn't then you need to contact Canon and ask for assistance.

How can I set Firefox to print to PDF, the only otions I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

A couple of weeks ago, from the file menu, in my print options was to print a web page to PDF, that facility is no longer there. does anyone know how can I set Firefox to print to PDF.
The only options I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

Firefox generally displays the printers in Windows' Printers folder (Start orb > Devices and Printers). If it is missing one of the printers listed there, could you indicate which one it is, for example, Adobe Distiller, PrimoPDF, CutePDF Writer, etc.?
If you previously had an add-on which added print-to-PDF functionality just to Firefox, perhaps it got disabled. You could check here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Also, are you really running Firefox 8.0.1? That version from last November is no longer secure and has been superseded by Firefox 11. If you browse the web widely, you should update for your security.

Sharing the Canon printer on my iMac with a Windows Vista PC

Sorry guys,
You must have been asked this many times before. I just cannot share my Canon iP4500 with a friend's PC running Vista. I have installed Bonjour on his PC, but haven't got a clue how to access it on Vista. The PC and the iMac both connect to a wireless router, but trying to make them talk to each other is proving very difficult!
If someone here has the knowledge and patience, what I would like is a step-by-step guide. Do I need to install the Canon printer driver onto the PC? The assistance on the Apple web site is very sparse in this area, to say the least!
Thank you in advance.
Graham

Hi Graham,
In the Sharing pref pane on the Mac, are Windows sharing and Printer Sharing both enabled?
Not positive on the PC end, but I think Printer Sharing should not be enabled.
Bonjour on the PC is accessed by right clicking on a Connection, at least in XP.
See if this is some small help...

TS3938 Can no longer scan with my MP800 Canon printer

I've seen lots of posts on this, and it is extremely frustrating that I'm starting to think it's just assumed that the owners of MP800 Canon printer/scanners will just toss out a perfectly good, little-used piece of hardware and buy something new. I've tried going to the HP site, loading the new drivers, etc. I've also tried changing from MP Navigator to Image Capture, but nothing happens when I open the Scanner, except for an empty screen that turns completely white when I click on Show Details.
I am REALLY disappointed in Apple OS update. In the PC world (which I bought a mac to get away from) I would just uninstall the entire printer, then re-install it and count on the correct drivers etc. to be loaded. I've tried to find a way to do this on the forums, but no luck. Is there any way to un-install the printer/scanner completely? And then re-install it to pick up the new drivers/software or whatever, that would work?

Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers should resolve this issue. Please perform the following to remove the currently installed drivers: (If any items are not listed, move on to the next step.)
1. Open Finder
2. Open the 'Library' folder.
3. Open the 'Printers' folder.
4. Open the 'Canon' folder.
5. Send the 'BJ Printer' folder to the trash.
6. Return to the 'Library' folder.
7. Open the 'Receipts' folder.
8. Locate any items related to your printer and send them to the trash.
Leave the 'Canon Printer Drivers.pkg' file in the folder if it happens to be listed.
9. Return to the 'Library' folder.
10. Open 'Image Capture'.
11. Open the 'Twain Data Sources' folder.
12. Send any Canon files related to your printer to the trash.
13. Open the Applications folder.
14. Open the Canon Utilities folder.
15. Send the MP Navigator to the trash.
16. Restart your computer.
To get your MP800 Canon printer operating , please follow these steps:
Download the following drivers:
mcpd-mac-mp800-10_51_2-ea11.dmg
msd_-mac-mp800-12_13_3-ej7.dmg
mpnosx207ej7.dmg
Once the downloads are completed, open each installer package to begin setup.
Once this process is completed, try scanning and printing with your MP800 Canon printer.

"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the software update server." Running Mavericks, Canon printer. What do I do?

We have a canon printer and it connects fine to my boyfriend's HP. I can't get it to connect to my macbook though--when I plug it in with USB it asks me if I want to install the software, has me agree ot the user terms and conditions, and then I get the error message. I've installed all updates, tried turning my computer on and off. Where do I go from here?

Did you install the Software Update beforehand? I believe you need this so that your Mac's database will update on your newly connected devices. Try the solutions here. I just did what it says there and then restart my computer and my router after all the process and it works for me. Goodluck!

I am trying to scan a legal size document from my Canon printer onto my MacBookPro. It scans the document as a letter size.

I am having trouble scanning a legal size document from my Canon printer onto my MacBookPro. I have set the printer paper size option to legal size on my printer. The scanned document comes through as a letter size document after scanning. I do not see an option in iPhoto to change the paper size.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks.

Experience has taught me that it pays to be very precise and specific when dealing with computers. Precisely and specifically, what you describe is impossible. It is impossible to scan a document (of any size) with a printer.
I surmise that you are using an all-in-one, ie, an apparatus which combines a printer, a scanner, and sometimes a fax machine, in the same device. That takes us to the next step -- the page size set for printing is used for printing -- it has nothing to do with scanning. It may be possible that Canon provides software which synchronises page sizes used for printing and for scanning, but we don't know what applications and drivers you are using…

Printing Problem on Canon Printer

Hi Gurus,
Greetings and Thanks in advance!
I have problem in Invoice printing on new Canon LBP 2900 B printer. Whenever I print on this printer the one character from right side does not print. Whereas if the same printing we are doing on HP Laserjet printer it comes perfectly.
I tried to create a new output device through SPAD in which I have used following:
Device Type: SWIN Windows printing via SAPlpd (since i didnt find Canon printer in the list so i used windows standard)
Device Class: Standard Printer
Host Spool Access Method: G:Front End Printing with control Tech.
Host Printer: _Default
But it was giving the same problem. Please suggest the solution.
Regards
Rajesh

Adobe Photoshop CS6 and Canon printer problem!!

Use Photoshop CS6 to edit and print (try to print) to a new Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer. Photoshop is up to date and the Mac runs OS 10.8.5 - Canon printer driver is current at ver. 11.7.1.
When I print from Photoshop to the Pro-100 (let's say a 4X6 landscape snapshot to 4X6 borderless paper) the printer starts up and moves the paper out about 4 inches and then prints the
first two inches of the image, stops and ejects the paper!. I've tried different versions of printer the printer driver and made sure every things is up to date. However, I can print from MS Word,
Nikon Capture NX2, or Canon's own Print Studio Pro and it works fine. Canon is no help because if it works OK with their Print Studio Pro then it's not their issue - I tend to agree with them.
The same thing happens print from Photoshop to 5X7 or 8X10 paper - it gets ejected so far and then only prints part of the image. I've searched the Internet and posted in Forums but can't find
where any one would have the same problem. What I'm hoping for here is someone at from Adobe who's knows Photoshop tech stuff will post here with suggestion because there is no more
phone support for Photoshop CS6. I'd like to really keep this printer and get Photoshop to work with it but if I can't I'm going to offer it up free to a good home! JM Davis

Thanks for your answer, indeed this fixed the problem. Quite stupid I did not see this myself

How do I set up a Canon printer that is asking for a WPS button?

I am trying to set up a Canon printer and cannot figure out how to do it with Airport Extreme as they are asking for a WPS button to be pushed....Please Help!

What operating system is being used on the computer that is configuring the printer and AirPort Extreme?
Apple has not supported the WPS type of setup for some time, so it may likely be necessary to use the manual setup option to configure the printer. Check the printer documentation for that procedure.
In this type of setup, the printer connects just like a laptop. You search for the wireless network, select it and enter the password to connect.

Canon Printer mx860 not working since upgrade to Yosemite, it is connected to my Mac via usb. Any suggestions? Thanks. LL

My 2009 Canon MX860 Pixma printer not working since an upgrade to Yosemite on my MAC version 10.10. It is connected by USB. Have had no previous issues with printing, scanning or faxing. When trying to print my Calendar I only get light vertical dotted lines, none horizontal, no words and vague header colors. Checked printer image on the on my MAC which shows the same problem. All of the color and black cartridges are new.
The recent upgrade to the Canon application says it is completed but it is not, image on application upgrade is a circle with an X.
Any suggestions? Could this simply be a compatibility problem? I'd sure like to keep my Canon printer.
Thanks, LL

Can you open System Information (Applications > Utilities) and select Printers in the left sidebar. If the MX is the only printer connected to the Mac then its information will be shown in the right pane. If you have more than one printer, then a list will be shown in the top right pane. Select the MX to see its information in the bottom right pane. Can you copy this information and paste back here for me to check.
Also an FYI - this is the Mavericks forum. The Yosemite forum is here

How to setup airprint with my canon printer asnd ipad 3

Is your printer on the list of Airprint enabled printers? If it is, you set it up through your home computer and your iPad should recognize it. If it is not, you can not make a non-Airprint printer Airprint enabled.
