Error U052. My Canon MX892 Printer which i purchased 18n months ago.

My printer will not work as it gives an error code U052 when turned on. The problem started a month ago and I followed all the instructions regarding fixing the problem to no avail. Does anyone have the solution to this problem. Desparate.

Sorry to say there is no cure for this error code. There is an 84 page thread on the subject headed "call to arms............etc." Apparently Canon are not help at all and only suggest you buy another print head for about $100. People who fell for this con have reported that is does not fix the problem. Canon also offers a discount on another printer but the discount amounts to less than you can buy one if you shop around. There are a couple of class action lawsuits brewing about it but don't hold your breath for any result in our lifetime. My advice, send your printer to the nearest landfill and buy a Brother.
Always hate to see corporate ripoffs by companies we used to trust.

When I print a 4x6 color picture using an iMac with the latest operating system using a Canon MX892 printer, faint black lines appear every 3/16 of an inch. When I print the same picture using iPhoto there is no problem.

When I print a 4x6 color picture using an iMac with the latest operating system using a Canon MX892 printer, faint black lines appear every 3/16 of an inch. When I print the same picture using iPhoto there is no problem. Any suggestions?

What is the resolution of the picture that you are trying to print?
Go to Image>resize>image size, read the resolution in px/in, then report back, please.
Also, are you in a position to try printing with another printer in an attempt to narrow this down?

I have posted in Mac pro Eplehust and Oslo in early June to change videokart (which has changed six months ago) got my Mac a month by mail, with the terrible damage the body, but the packaging in which he lay was not damaged. I sent him back to change the computer, 4 weeks, I changed it and checked 2 more weeks. as a result of three days ago, got back, more than half the programs crash, I can not open or closed CDrom, some programs do not come off or stop, and stop responding commands, turn it off only mechanically, not any excuses, I did not get to the store, what should I do?
My patience is crowded, nerves on edge, I have lost my time with the worst service of my life, the only thing I see its the draw Eplehuset and apple to court.

While writing I made a mistake... It is true I could become aware of the Scorpio incompatibility.
I also tried the same identical procedure with a Seagate one. This disk and the same procedure was performed by some people I know on many MacBookPro Mid-2010 and everything was OK.
We do not understand why this problenm occurs.
Furthermore, If I installed the system on the broken HDD (that works, but sometimes it fails so badly and makes the system experience kernel panic) I could boot from it.
I guess it is because of the **** Apple FIrmware written on the label.
Is it possible that I cannot manage to boot from my new HDD because it has not a "special" feature on it that makes it compatible with apple??? Why making things so **** difficult my god a closer world like Apple one is impossible to imagine.
However Shootist007 thanks for your message, but given what I said I do not think is a cable problem.

Hey. I have a problem. I updated my mac os x to 10:8 for I can not start Acrobat Pro, which I bought six months ago. Proglamet says that the computer does not support Power PC. Help

Hey. I have a problem. I updated my mac os x to 10:8 for I can not start Acrobat Pro, which I bought six months ago.
Proglamet says that the computer does not support Power PC. Help
When I try to start it says (program "Acrobat 6.0.2 Professional.app" can not open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.)
Please help

The version of Acrobat you have is a PowerPC application and will not run on Mountain Lion. You will need to upgrade/purchase an Intel version of Acrobat Pro, probably Version 9.
It might have been worth checking to see if the apps you run are supported on ML before upgrading. If you backed up your system before the upgrade you could always revert to your previous level.

Thanks to all of you that willing to help me.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules.

My iMac 27'', which I bought two Months ago, has ghost images on it's screen. Apple don't want to replace it. What can I do now?

Hey!
Two months ago I bought the new, thin iMac 27'' with Fusion Drive.
Well, one week ago I recognized that I have ghost images on my screen.
Apple don't want to replace it. They want that I drive to the next 200km away
Apple Store (with this huge iMac) to show an Apple Employee the production error.
The problem is that it is an iMac with special features and I need to wait 5-6 business days.
After that I need to go back to this Apple Store (they won't send it) to bring it home.
AND: THEY DONT WANT TO OFFER AN REPLACEMENT DEVICE!!
I need this mac for working!!! I use it for my business and I have not the time for it!
Is there a solution for this problem? Has anyone of you a similar problem?
I mean: this is not accomodating!! Other companys have a better support for this case!!
Thank you very, very much in advance!!!!!!!
Sincerey Yours
Max

Lost all printing with Leopard a few months ago, need to fix, please help.

I think all of my printing capabilities went away a few months ago when i updated to 10.5.6. haven't been able to fix it on my own.
I have a hp 130 and a konica 6500 with a ic-304 creo. the hp is set up from a windows printer server and connected through a networked ethernet. the creo is pretty much its own print server with ip address, also available through the windows print server.
I go to add my printer, enter in the ip address, or browse, choose my driver, add printer, ect. if I am able to accomplish those tasks, then i attempt a print, only to have the que instantly stopped, and i can't get it to resume printing or to print.
for the last few months, i've been using a tiger laptop, a virtual XP on the macpro, the Xp box on the konica printer and a thin client PC to print. but I'd really like to regain print functionality on the macpro and not have to deal with windows anymore.
have tried those weird security login things that pop up when i try to resume printing: (server/username), (username/server), (guest), updating firmware, re-installed drivers.
please help, I really don't understand security, or how to make it work with printing, or bypass it entirely. i don't know how to get printing back.

well A.G., you are at least in luck, since its just the driver:

How can I restore Google graphic, which I removed some months ago when they tried pushing images?

I would like to restore the Google Doodle to my Google homepage. Some months ago, when Google pushed pictures, there was a way to change a switch in Firefox to keep the pictures from showing. That also switched off the Doodle function. I'd like to know how to find the switch and what setting to use to restore the Doodle. Thanks.

Try clicking the Google emoticon in the web address, then click ''More Information''.
In the menu which appears, click '''Media '''and then click the Google web address to highlight it.
Then check to see if the box to block the image is checkmarked or not.

Communication error has occurred - Canon PIXMA printer

This was driving me nuts! I tried many of the other ideas offered in these discussions, but nothing worked. Sometimes my Canon PIXMA MP640 WiFi printer would work, usually it wouldn't. I would get "A communication error has occurred" message on my MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard) and the print job would just stay in the queue until I deleted it. Most of the time I needed to re-enter the network password at the printer BEFORE EVERY PRINT JOB which was a pain because the password was 10 characters long and I could only dial in each letter one at a time.
If you are having similar trouble, before you do anything CHECK THE WIFI SIGNAL STRENGTH USING THE PRINTER MENUS! On my model, this was done by going from the Home menu to Settings->Device Settings->LAN Settings->Confirm LAN settings->Print LAN Details. If the signal strength on the printout shows less than 50%, there is too much interference from other electronics in the area (or the printer is too far from the router). In my case, the printer was in the next room, i.e., not too far from the router so I knew it had to be EM interference.
At first, my signal strength was showing 36%. Then I moved the printer into the same room as the wifi router, within 7ft and directly in line of sight of it and it went to 62%. I thought it should be much higher, so I moved the printer to within 4ft and it went to 80%. Then I unplugged the LCD TV (which was NOT turned on at any time) that was on the counter nearby, and it jumped to 90%.
After months of poking at this problem and finally resigning to the idea that the printer was broken, I tried this and now it works perfectly as long as the TV is unplugged. I plan on moving the router away from the TV so I won't have to unplug it whenever I print.
Hope this helps!

I've wrestled with this off and on with this printer ever since I got it. Just checked and my signal was at 44%. Guess that could be it!... guess I'll do some relocating of the router, boost the signal or run an ethernet line. Never though the signal being that low would cause this many print errors.
I thought is was just happening when the printer would go to sleep... or not used for a few days.
Thanks!

9672 error when adding canon CP720 printer

Hi,
I'm just trying to add a printer using the airport extreme. The system finds the CANON Selphy CP720 printer and locates a driver but i get an error message "Error 9672" when I click the "add" button. Any clue?
Thanks in advance

The CP720 driver included with Snow Leopard is the Gutenprint version. You could look at using the Canon provided driver via the following link.
http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100226102.html
If the Canon driver has the same issue, try connecting the printer directly to the Mac via USB to see if this works okay. With it connected to the USB port of the Airport Extreme, it should work fine with either driver so I am not sure why you are getting this error (usually related to communication errors). So I am curious to see if the direct USB connection works for you...

What is the WPS button on my access point? I am trying to setup wirelessly with a canon MX892 printer

Printer setup instructions say to press the WPS button on the access point (my 4th gen Time Capsule). Does that mean hit reset and will I have to setup every other device again by doing that?

No, do not hit reset .. it is not a WPS button.
Apple products do not use WPS, so no WPS button is needed. And they have no need to implement one.. nothing exists outside the Apple bubble.. didn't you know that??
Read the forum expert Tesserax instructions for using WPS. https://discussions.apple.com/message/16034147#16034147
But it is better to plug in your printer to a mac by usb and use the disk provided to do a full manual setup of wireless.. WPS is simply the easy way.

I just broke the screen of my iphone 5s which was bought 2 months ago. What am i supposed to do?

How much will it cost if I just change my screen?
Which will be the cheapest way?
Is that OK if i just add some money to change my iPhone 5s to iPhone 6 when it is released?
Thanks for your time!

Apple does not do repair on parts of the phone. A broken screen is not covered by the warranty. You'll have to pay a service fee and Apple will replace the phone with the same model.
Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
iPhone model
Out-of-Warranty Service
iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
iPhone 5
$269
iPhone 4S
$199
iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
iPhone 3G, Original iPhone
$149
You may also search for a 3rd party repair shop, but Apple will not service the phone after that anymore and the warranty will be no longer valid.
You can not get another model by getting it serviced, even if you are willing to add the price difference.

Please can you help. I have an iPhone 4 which up until a month ago was working fine. Now all of a sudden I can't make calls on it. The phone will ring both ends but will not connect to each other. The speaker button is highlighted with no sound.

I can't really remember what I wrote in the heading but I am desperate for help. I have basically got a very expensive iPod. Calls will connect so the call ticker will go round but there isno sound from either side. Also the speakerphone button will be constantly pressed but still no sound. I have restored it many times, sent it back to apple but they could find no fault. I have done everything but with no joy. I just want to make phone calls!!!

A minor point, but it may avoid a little confusion if, instead of saying "black" in reference to the iPhone 5s, say "space gray":
