How do i installa canon printer pixma mp970

we have been given a canon pixma mp970 printer to add to our computer. We have tried to install it but have not been able to as it doesn't seem to recognise it. I admit that my nephew put us on firefox and we do not really know our way around as we mainly use the internet. We have the disc to install but are still unable to manage it.

Your printer is listed as a supported printer.
The way drivers work in OS X has changed. Manufacturers give the current driver to Apple, who keep it on their server for auto-download when you Add the printer in Print & Scan prefs.
Connect the printer, go to Print & Scan prefs, if the printer shows up, highlight it and click " + " to Add.
It should automatically find and install the driver. If not, come back and tell us if there were errors.

Canon Printer Pixma Pro 9000 MKii - OSX 10.9 - photoshop CS5 crashes

I have a Canon printer--PIXMA MG6320.

I can't print pictures on photo paper without changing all the settings. I never had this problem with my HP printer. Needless to say this is rather inconvenient and time consuming. Is there a way to print pictures without changing everything. When I want to print a document I have to change all the settings again.

Hello.
If you have to change the settings often, you can use the "Commonly Used Settings" option in the Preferences menu (Windows) or create a Preset after you have selected your desired settings on a Mac. This will allow you to easily change your settings from one print job to another.
If additional assistance is needed, feel free to call us at 1-800-OKCANON.

Canon printer wont print PDF and Word files... sometimes.

I face a very special problem with my iMac and my Canon printer (Pixma MG5350): Since a few weeks, the printer wont print most PDF files correctly, the same with existing Word files. A blank or blurred sheet is coming out of the machine. But: When I create a brand new Word file and fill it with text, the printer prints it clean and neat. The same with the official Canon test prints – no troubles at all. I have also tried to sort out the problem with the help from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147?viewlocale=de_DE, without success. Glad about every help!

My next suggestion would be to try an alternate driver to the Canon.
There is the Gutenprint v5.2.9 suite which is free and lists the MG5300 series as a supported model. You could download and install this driver suite and add the Gutenprint MG5300 driver and see if this gives you the same problem.

Yosemite printer driver for Canon Pixma IP3000

This is not so much a question as a solution to getting my old Canon Pixma IP3000 working again after upgrading to Yosemite.
Although the printer is listed, when I wanted to add it I found no software for it from Apple. Phoning Canon they also said they have no software for the IP3000 and Yosemite. To make a long story short, after much trial and error trying out other drivers which were listed on "choose driver" I found that the IP4500 driver can be configured for cassette feed AND duplex and works on Yosemite. Hope this helps someone else to keep some of the older products going in our throw away society!

I just installed that driver on a 10.10 VM and also found that there is no Duplex Print & Margin menu - just Margin.
I then installed it on a 10.8 VM to be sure the lack of the menu was not due to using the 10.8 driver on 10.10. However I found that even on 10.8, there was no Duplex Print & Margin. So it would seem that duplex printing was not an option for the iP3500.
I then checked an alternate driver suite called Gutenprint and added the iP3500 Gutenprint printer. It also did not support the ability to print duplex.
But when I added another printer, this time using the Gutenprint iP3000 driver, there was the ability to print two sided from the Layout menu. So then I thought it might be worth checking if the Canon iP3000 driver also provides a duplex setting, but the last supported OS for this model was 10.6 so I did not even try to install that old driver on 10.10.
Here is a link to the Gutenprint driver if you would like to try that.

No duplex on Canon PIXMA iP3000 via Printer Sharing

Hi there folks,
since upgrading my MacBook to 10.6, I can no longer print duplex on the iP3000 shared from the office iMac G5 (running 10.5.8) via Airport.
Here are the options so far:
1. Default printer driver:
The default printer driver ("IP3000") simply doesn't show the duplex option in the printer dialog's drop-down menu.
2. Manually updated and selected Canon's own driver:
I've updated the Canon drivers to 2.2 from the Apple Support Downloads and manually selected the appropriate driver (version 10.26.1.0 - definitely the latest one), but the printer will invariably attempt to print the job "Supply Levels" before I can even attempt to print anything and then pause the queue.
The Print dialog now shows the proper duplex option, though.
But attempting to print tells me that the printer is "Printing…", but nothing ever happens.
3. Gutenprint driver:
Doesn't give me the duplex option, either. Attempting to print results in supposedly successful completion of the print job, but nothing ever arrives at the printer.
Option (1) is the only one that works, and NO DUPLEX. Waaaaahhhhhh...
Any ideas, or should I just file a bug on the Feedback page?

There have been no updates since 2007.
Well, technically there has been an update because Canon has supplied the v10.26 driver to Apple. As to why they have not provided the driver on their web sites is an unknown.
The drivers Apple supplies for 10.6 obviously follow a completely different numbering scheme and are obviously a completely different development branch from the 10.5 and previous drivers.
No, the version is set by Canon, not Apple. And the so-called CUPS driver was made by the same department as the older Carbon drivers.
In other words:
Either: It's not a bug, the **** thing simply isn't fully supported anymore, as there is no current driver for 10.5.
Or: This is something that CAN be fixed in the 10.6 drivers.
One solution could be to install the same version of Gutenprint driver on 10.5 and 10.6. The Sourceforge site has v5.2.4 available for both platforms.

Canon Pixma IP3000 experiences?

I have a Canon Pixma IP3000 here, and it's an awesome printer, except when I got it (I was still on Gentoo) I couldn't get it to work properly (no duplex support, bad colour prints), so I've been using it from the windows installation on my laptop. But since Arch is so awesome, I thought maybe it can work now. So, anyone have experience with running this printer?

Canon Pixma iP3000 and OS9

There's something strange about the OS9 driver of my Canon Pixma iP3000 printer. In OS X, I can easily view the remaining ink level information of my printer. In OS9, that option is not available. Curious, I could do that without problems in OS 9 with my old Epson 740 Stylus Color.

Pdf printing problem Mac OSX Snow Leopard Canon MP620 Pixma printer

After upgrading Adobe Reader version 9.3 to version 10 I cannot print pdf documents using Canon MP620 Pixma printer. Mac OSX Snow Leopard operating system. All other prining works OK.

Help resolving printing problem with v10.6.8 and Canon MP780 PIXMA

Hello,
My Canon MP780 PIXMA stopped being able to print text in black some months ago and having scoured the internet for advice I've discovered that this issue is not that uncommon. This printer uses 5 ink tanks 3 of which are for single colours and two of which are for different kinds of black ink. The tank responsible for printing black text (fonts) for some reason just won't do its job.
Amongst other people's online posts I found a workaround cheat to print black text (simply change the paper setting to Photo Quality or Double Sided Photo for printing either single or duplex printing).
But this uses up too much ink and is EXTREMELY slow.
I have read of the same issue using a different series of Canon printers - and apparently those Canon laser printers just needed an updated CAPT driver.
Tasks already attempted to no avail:
- cleaning the ink nozzles via the software utility
- print test via software utility demonstrates absent gridline pattern
- taken out print head and cleaned carefully with water then left to dry naturally before replacing
- removed Microsoft Word font folders from user library location then restarted my machine (in a desperate response to some advice given in this community to someone else experiencing the same problem but with a different printer)
- opened FontBook and resolved duplicate fonts and restarted my machine (there were about 5 duplicates)
- tried printing from TextEdit and Preview to see if Apple software was behaving differently to Microsoft Word and Adobe Acrobat - but still cannot print black text
I've had this printer for about 7 years and although it's a massive machine and doesn't have built-in proper networking, it makes scanning and printing massive documents so easy - well it did before the black text problem began - so I'd love to find a true solution rather than chuck it out and buy a new printer.
I run it from a MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Version 10.6.8 via USB cable.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this.

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

I have a Apple imax only about 9 months old. I need a new printer. I am looking at a Canon MX926 PIXMA. Do I have Airprint or do I need to purchase it? I am a novice with Apple and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If your iMac is only 9 months old, it probably comes with OS X Mountain Lion, and it includes AirPrint, so you do not need to purchase anything else apart from the printer (which is compatible with AirPrint).
Once you have purchased the printer, you need to follow the steps of the manufacturer. To add the printer to OS X, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670

Printing from iPad 2 to Canon MG6120 Pixma Printer

Hi There Apple Community,
I'm trying to help out my Mother-In-Law (who I like) and I'm trying to make it as easy as possible for her to print from her iPad 2 to her Wi-Fi-enabled printer. It's like this:
I'm trying to print from an iPad 2 to a Canon MG6120 Pixma Printer. Now, I know that the printer is not AirPrint compatible at this time and I've downloaded EuroSmartz Print n Share (v4.5.2), but I'm just not satisfied. It works to a degree, but you have to print from within the app for it to work and the quality is much lower than if she were to simply use the desktop PC (a newish HP running Windows 7 Home Premium). The app is also hinky when trying to use its native browser to log into secure sites, which is the primarly use that she is going to use it for -- buying tickets and other stuff and wanting to print up hard copies.
So, I am asking a few different questions:
1. Does anyone know of any hacks to the aforementioned Canon printer to make it work with the iPad?
2. Does anyone know of another app that works with PCs that allows for easier printing?
3. Does anyone know of any hacks to the iPad 2 that allows it to print to non-AirPrint-enabled printers?
Many, many thanks to any and all who answer!

Canon Easy Print free app for iPad might work

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.

I have a new Macbook Pro and an old Canon ip Pixma 8500. I have downloaded the software from Canon but my printer settings will still not register it. Looks like I can print a colour calendar but not a letter!

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
