Canon printer not print MP560

Here the problem,
I was using my printer just fine with my macbook but then last week I accidentally started to print something so I paused it. From that point on it won't work. I went into the printers section and I resume printing. That didn't work. It kept saying off line. Then I went to the queue and deleted the job in it. Still wouldn't work. So I opened it again today and I reset the printing system and tried to reinstall it hoping I would be back at square one. Didn't work. Now all it says it "Idle, last used." So I tried printing a test page. Printed fine. I tried printing a document again and it just sits there like it's not talking to the computer. The printer icon no longer shows up in the bar at the bottom of the screen either. Help. What do I do?

Macbook Pro Retina OSX v. 10.8.3 -Canon Printer MP560. Printer no longer responds to print commands from the computer, printer and network work but cannot get docs from my macbook to print anymore.

Until last week, my printer and Macbook worked fine together - could print any doc or pdf, web page from my computer. Then it stopped - my printer will still make copies but will not print anything I send from my Mac. I have checked network connections, the printer WiFi connection works. I have not changed or added any thing different to my settings. I am out of ideas. thanks, Pattee

Hello Pattee,
The following article has a number of troubleshooting steps that may help get your Printer working again.
OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot a network printer
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11070
Make sure you’re on the same network
Your computer might not be able to find a printer that’s on another local network.
To see if the printer you want to use is on the same network as your computer, try adding it again. If the printer doesn’t appear in the list of available printers, your computer might be on a different network now.
If you know the printer’s IP address (for example, 192.168.1.100), you can try adding it as an IP printer. For instructions, see this help topic:Set up an IP printer
Add your printer again
Try to add your printer again in Print & Scan preferences. If you can print to the newly added printer queue, delete the old printer queue.
If you can’t add the printer because it doesn’t appear in the list of available printers, it may be turned off, or your computer may be on another network now. if the printer was shared by another user, the user may have stopped sharing it, or the user’s computer may be offline. If you don’t manage the printer, ask the person who does for help.
Edit your list of printers
Set up a printer
Reset the printing system
If none of the previous solutions work, the printing system may be corrupted and need to be reset. This removes all printers from your list of printers, deletes information about completed print jobs, and deletes any printer presets.
Reset the printing system
Cheers,
Allen

My Canon printer MP560 shows an error c000

"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!

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

Just installed the latest Canon printer software update (V 3.2) from the App store. Canon Pixma MX850 will not print. Dialog says job stopped at the server - no pages found. Utilities, print test page works. Printing via Airport.

Just installed the latest Canon printer software update (V 3.2) suggested by the App store in effort to get printer working after OS update. Canon Pixma MX850 will not print. Dialog says job stopped at the server - no pages found. Utilities, print test page works. Attempting to print via Airport from a MacBook Pro. Also from a Mac Pro via ethernet. Both worked before updating to Yosemite. Canon Pro 9000 Mk 2 works via USB. Tried installing driver 10.84 from OS 10.9 as suggested by PAHU; no luck.

The "stopped at server - no pages found" message would suggest an image with the print file that is created by the printer driver on the MacBook Pro. But if the Mac Pro is getting the same message then that is unusual.
To rule out a couple of causes I would try connecting the MacBook Pro directly to the MX850 by USB cable. This action should result in a new printer for the USB connection being created automatically. If not then you may need to manually create it as you won't be able to use the existing printer that exists for the network connection. With the new printer created see if this will let you print without error.
If this USB connected printer also fails with the same message then try a reset of the printing system. Note that this action will also remove the Pro 9000 from Printers & Scanners so you will have to add it and the MX850 again.

Hi hthpggy,
To try and resolve the issue, please remove the power cord from the back of the printer and leave it out for at least 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn it back on. If the error persists, the printer will require servicing to resolve the issue.
Please drop us a line by clicking on the Contact Us link to start the process!

Connected wirelessly to Canon printer MX340. Duplex printing option is grayed out for me but not on my daughter's non-Mac laptop or husband's PC which is connected to the printer. Mine has two-sided option available at the Apple store. Any ideas?

We use a Canon MX340 series printer/fax/scanner. My husband has his PC hooked to it and my daughter prints wirelessly from it with no problem with her non-Mac laptop. I have trouble printing. Often it does not print and I have to delete the job from the queue. Other times it will print OK but two-sided printing is always grayed out in my printing options. When I took it to the Apple store and printed on their network (selecting their printer) the two-sided option was available. Makes me think the printer is set up wrong, but I am not certain. A fw times at home when trying to print I got an error message about incompatible fonts, but it printed anyway after deleting the job and starting over. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks

OK, just an update.
Two years into this, I still find I can only do full duplex printing by using Windows XP running inside of VMWare. I've had occasional, ephemeral luck with duplex printing, but nothing long lasting.
I've tried this in Tiger and Leopard (now at 10.5.6), and I've had this issue with Canon printers MP780 iP4300 and MP610, direct connected to my Core2Duo 17" MBP. I also have this issue when printing over a network, but that's a much harder problem to solve.
Currently, this is my #1 most pressing issue for my Mac, because not being able to print from a computer when you print a lot is a really big drag, and using VMWare all the time is also a really big drag. Other people posting seem to be able to print in Duplex using the very same printers. What could be wrong with my MBP? I see the duplex box option, but most of the time it's grayed out as if my printer doesn't support duplex.
I've tried direct selecting printer drivers from the system preferences, but nothing seems to have an effect. And this is off of a clean Leopard install.
My wife now has similar problems with her new MBP - the Canon print drivers (CUSP & non CUSP) aren't allowing the Duplex box to be checked.
I am willing to pay good money to anyone who thinks they can fix this problem.
Thank you,
- Jeff

I have a canon printer with a mac computer. For some reason whenever I print something the ink on the page is all green not black like it should be. I put in a new black ink cartrridge but that didn't change anything.Does anyone know why this is happening

You posted in the OS 9 & below forum. What OS X version are you using? What model Canon printer? Canon printers have a test print capability (open the Printer Utility). What happens when you do a test print? Are all the printer cartridges in their proper location? Sometimes when you print "black", the printer uses a mixture of the colors to get "black". In the Printer Utility, check the levels of the other cartridges. There may be one color that is clogged.

I have just bought Canon printer mg3560 and it won't upload the software, just says 'You can't open the application "MSETUP4.EXE" because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X.' Please help!

Having trouble installing my Canon Printer MG3560 to my Macbook. Have put software disc in but then it comes up with that comment.

~Bee,
I mentioned the Australian Canon download site because the MG3500 series printers are not mentioned in Apple's OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download page. The MX890 series is, so of course it needs no driver or additional software.

I have MacBook Pro (early 2011) with Mac OS X 10.6.8. How to make Cannon MF 5770 printing? I know that Canon have not provided drivers. Is it any way around it?

So, I've taken my panasonic printer back to the shop and exchenged it for a Canon MF-4430. Alas... the generic drivers do not make it print. Is it possible to get drivers to make this canon printer work with my lovely Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard, 6.8?

I could not find a MF-4430 at the Canon site. Are you sure the model is correct? They have a MF4450. The Mac drivers are here:

If you are sure you have a MF4430, look around the canon site for the drivers.

Canon MP6350 not convecting to Google Cloud Print

Come on Canon, printer connected to other web services, other printers working with GCP, your servers not connecting to GCP? "Cannot connect to server - try again later". Been happening for 2 weeks now! Seems I" m not alone:https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/chromebook-central/aJLUT42t4g4/1zQMpi4RRiIJ Working on a fix?

Hello dabbourb,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you are able to print from your desktop to your Photosmart D110a printer but not your Chromebook.
I am presuming that you have already connected your printer to your wireless network. If you haven’t please follow the steps in the Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection document. Please click on the operating system of your desktop and follow the steps in the order presented.
When the printer is connected to your wireless network, we need to setup the ePrint feature of the printer before connecting it to Google Cloud Print. To start please Get the Printer Claim Code. Once you have the web services information sheet, please Set Up a Custom Email Address for ePrint.
Now let’s connect the printer with Google Cloud Print. I have included the Setting Up and Using Your HP ePrint-Capable Printer with a Chromebook document. I’ve also included Google’s document for setting up Cloud-Ready Printers. Once you have the printer connected to Google Cloud Print please follow the steps in Google’s Print a page document to start printing.

Canon printer WORKS in MacBook Pro but NOT in Chrome/ iPhone 6 after iOS 8 update

Canon printer WORKS in MacBook Pro but now NOT in Chrome/ iPhone 6 after iOS 8 update. The printer worked previously with NO PROBLEMS. The printer is online & connected to the WiFi, not issues.
WHY???!!!???

You probably would get better answers in either the iPhone or iOS forums. This is for Macbooks. I've asked the hosts to move it.
