Help!!  How can I print to Canon MP800, "PrintJobMgr" failed?

Using 10.5.6 for a while, but ALL OF A SUDDEN, all 3 of my computers (an iMac, a Powerbook G4, a MacBook Pro) won't print to a Canon MP800 through Airport or directly to printer via USB. I've trashed anything to do with Canon and reinstalled driver twice, but all I get are these messages:
/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr failed
com.apple.print.recoverable-warning
I don't even get the print dialog box anymore. Printer icon just bounces in the dock and I get the messages above. Where is the problem??

It is unusual that all three Mac's would give the same error when the printer is connected directly to them via USB. Anyway, I would try resetting the printing system first on the Mac that is currently connected to the printer via USB.
Open System Preferences > Print & Fax. Move you mouse over the Printers list and then hold down the Control key. Now click your mouse and then let go off the Control key. You will see 'Reset printing system' pop-up which you can click. This will delete your printer queue. At this stage, turn off the printer and then back on again. After a short while the printer should automatically add to your printer list again. When it does, try printing. Hopefully the error will have stopped.
If this doesn't help then you could look at trying Print Therapy from www.fixamacsoftware.com. This utility can help with resolving core printing system issues.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    If you have a Mac running OS X, try AirPrint Activator.
    http://netputing.com/airprintactivator/airprint-activator-v2-0/
    It's "donation-ware."
    Free to download and try. If it works and you like it, the developers do appreciate a donation, but the app continues to function, even without a donation.

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

  • How can I print from my MacBook Pro to Canon MP560 using rear tray?  I can't find that "option" in the print selection possibilities.

    How can I print from my MacBook Pro to Canon MP560 using rear tray?  I can't find that "option" in the print selection possibilities.

    Sure can.
    With a document open in Pages, select to print so that you can see the print dialog as shown below.
    Note that to see this view, you may need to press the Show Details button in the bottom left corner. In the image above, since I have the expanded view displayed, this button changes to Hide Details
    So with the view shown, first change the Presets menu to Default Settings. Then click the Layout drop menu and select Quality & Media. Make the changes you want and then click on the Presets menu and select Save Current Settings as Preset...
    At the next window, give the Preset a name and select the Only this Printer radio button and then click OK to save it. That's it.
    As for the Preset that you already have, if you no longer want this preset then you can delete it via the Show Presets menu pane that you've used already.

  • How can I print ONLY the active document?

    Whenever I go to File/Print the darn PSE 9 program sends all of the working files in the bin to the printer. I've searched online for 2 hours now looking for an answer.
    I like to work with having several to many files in the 'bin' and prefer to only print the active file I'm currently working on without having to close the 'working files' before I can print. How can I print ONLY the active document or file in the project bin? Please help, I've upgraded from PSE 3 to PSE 9 and really like the updated features, but this one pain in the neck default is getting the best of me.

    Thanks for your help, that works nicely. It is good to have control of the printer again.

  • How can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    how can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    Jim,
    Take heart.  We can help.
    First turn on page view so you can see how the content of your sheet fits on the page(s).  A Numbers document contains sheets (listed on the left) which in turn contain tables, charts, text, and graphics.  Select the sheet you want to print on the left, then enable page view by selecting the menu item:
    "View > Show Print View":
    Now you should see your content and how it fits on one, or more, pages.  If thie content is too big for one page use the controls and the bottom left of the window to expose the sheet controls:
    Here a table is too big to fit on one page:
    slide the "Content Scale" slider so the content fits:

  • How can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2?

    how can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2? I need to print a engineering print with lot of information but information is too small in letter size and I don't have a plotter.

    Two ways to print a portion of a page: zooming or using the Snapshot Tool.
    ZOOMING:
    Zoom into the area you want to print.
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure "Current view" is selected under "More options" (you may need to click "More options" to open it).
    If you aren't satisfied with the preview, try clicking "Fit" under the Size button.
    SNAPSHOT
    Choose Edit > Take A Snapshot.
    Drag a rectangle around the area you want to print. 
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure that "Selected Graphic" is selected under "More options".
    To enlarge the snapshot to fit the sheet of paper, choose "Fit" under the Size button.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I print pictures direct from my camera?

    How can I print direct from my camera?  This printer does not have any ports for accepting the card from the camera as my old photosmart printer did.

    Hey rmg111!
    What kind of printer are you using? Most of our newer printers still have memory card readers which would allow you to print pictures directly from the printer. If the printer truly does not have the memory card readers (some of them don't), then you would need to use a computer to transfer the pictures from the memory card before printing them.
    Let me know if this helps!
