How's the Canon Pixma MP960?

Anyone have good or bad experiences with the Canon Pixma MP960? I'm seriously considering it. Especially interested in how well the scanner works.
I've been having problems with my HP 7410 cutting off scans when I use the ADF, so I'd appreciate any advice or comments you can offer.
Thanks in advance,

Looking at the specs an the Canon Aus web site, this model doesn't have a document feeder. And it also doesn't have fax, which you mentioned in your wish list in a previous posting. So I don't know if this changes your interest in the 960?

  • Where can I find a tutorial for the Canon Pixma MG6220

    I am unable to make full use of the Canon Pixme MG6220 I purchased a few weeks ago. I am an 85 year old geezer and my old printer was pretty straight forward but had limited features whereas this Pixma 6220 is a great machine but I find it most intimidating to use some of its features and have had no luck in finding a tutorial online-------can anyone help me?????

    I dont know how I did it: I have found the manual, but it's extremely confusing. I am 70, not quite as old as the questioner.  I find this manual has too much content and I cannot find what I need (like almost every web page!). 
    We just bought the pixma MG6220 and have installed the driver on both our computers, and it's supposed to work wirelessly, and it does. Mine is a macbook air and we had to use the external drive to do the installation.
    But when it came to scanning photos in order to add them to the digital ones, the scanner could only find my husband's PC, not my macbook. I understand that you cannot simultaneously use both computers to scan. Do I have to switch off the other computer to use mine? Or do I have to attach the laptop with a wire to the printer. My laptop is near the new printer, but the husband's PC and modem are further away - but they work. I have spent several hours trying to solve this, which should have a very simple answer, but can find nothing. I didn't understand 99 per cent of the content of the manual, which is very disempowering. Could it not "hide" the more obscure content and make it accessible via specific links. I do not want to plug in the external drive every time I want to use the scanner or printer (I lose the mouse function).
    I also find it hard to navigate these community pages! What is tagging?

  • Can the Canon Pixma ix 6520 support manual duplex printing?

    I know that this printer doesn't support duplex printing but I was wondering how would I double side print manually with the canon pixma ix6520?
    Thanks!

    Hello thekay94.
    Manual duplex printing can be done by printing on one side at a time. 
    If you are printing from a Windows computer, please select the Duplex printing option in the Page Setup tab of the Printing Preferences menu.  If you are printing from a Mac, please use the options in the Layout menu to print the odd pages first, then load the stack back in the printer with the blank side facing you to print on the even numbered pages.
    If immediate assistance is needed, feel free to call us at 1-800-OKCANON.

  • I have the latest mac desktop  op mountain lion,plugged in the canon pixma ip90v and get a message drawing too much power from usb and it won't work?

    I cannot get the canon pixma ip90v to work with the computer.I get a message about drawing too much power from the usb.

    You need to plug in the power cord that was included with the printer and then use it with USB, or use the power cord included with the printer and access it wirelessly from your iMac. I access my Canon MP560 wirelessly from my iMac, which works well.

  • Does OS 10 support the Canon Pixma mini260 printer?

    Does OS 10.10.1 support the Canon Pixma mini260 printer?

    The last driver that Canon released for this model was for OS X 10.7 and earlier. Here is a link to that driver. You may be able to install this driver on 10.10, although Gatekeeper will block its installation due to its digital signature. So you will have to right-click on the installer and select Open from the pop-up menu. You will then get the option to install the driver.

  • Being new to working with Mac, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to set my Mac Book Pro wirelessly to the Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark ll? My husband had gotten this printer and the sales person said that it can be set up wirelessly to my Mac Book Pro

    Being new to working with a Mac, I was wondering if anyone can tell me step, by step on how to set up my Mac Book Pro(Mid 2012) wirelessly to a Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark ll that my husband had gotten me? Sales person told him that it's compatiable to my Mac Book Pro, Mtn Lion, but I do not see it and I don't see how to do it wirelessly. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks ;o)

    Hello:
    There is nothing wrong with asking questions.  There  are no dumb questions....answers, yes, but not questions. 
    If you set up your wi-fi router to establish a network, then both your printer and MacBook Pro will connect wirelessly.  *** I do not know what kind of router you possess, I don't want to suggest things that might not be relevant.

  • Has anyone else had problems with the Canon Pixma MG3250 on their air?

    I bought a Canon Pixma yesterday, and I have had problems setting the printer up as one I don't have a cd drive- so I had to download the software- and two my laptop does't seem to recognise the printer wirelessly. It is fine when I stick the USB cable in. I contacted apple to see if it was a software issue, they helped by getting a couple of things up- then I followed the guide from canon on how to install the printer and and connect to WPS but it just doesn't seem to like my mac. Help I'm at my wits end!

    I had a similar problem. After i extracted the audio track from a clip (so i can edit it down for a drop zone in iDVD) iMovie aborted and i couldn't get it to run correctly with that video again. Each time i tried to open it, iMovie would hang with the startup dialog saying there was less than a minute left to load the video.
    I trashed the video and pulled up my backup from my outboard drive (tedious; >.5hr over USB 2), i'm going to try again.
    I have QT Pro also (i upgraded for the file conversion features, mostly).

  • Managing Color with LR and the Canon Pixma Pro 9000 10.1.2.0 printer driver

    I would like help understanding how to manage color in LIghtroom with the Canon Pro 9000 10.1.2.0 printer driver. When I ask LR to manage color in the Printing Module Color Management Profile, it warns me to turn off the printer managing color. But I cannot find where to do this in the driver.
    The Color Options menu in the driver gives an additional choice for "Color Mode", but there are no choices here except "Standard", "Linear" or "Tone". The only Canon documentation I can find shows a choice to turn off printer management here, but this driver doesn't give me that choice.
    If I look in the driver's "Color Matching", I see only two choices: ColorSync or Vendor Matching. ColorSync brings up Canon profiles like "Pro9000 Fine Art Photo Rag", but selecting one of these gives a warning of unexpected results. This pushes me back to Vendor Matching. But is this turning off the printer driver and leaving it to Lightroom?
    Right now, I am getting the best results from choosing "Managed by Printer" in LR's Color Management Profile, and setting "Color Matching" in the Canon driver to "Vendor Matching". If I instead choose one of the Canon profiles in LR's Color Management Profile (and it tells me to turn off the printer managing, which I cannot do), then my prints have a slightly bluer color cast.
    Is there a way to turn off the printer managing color in this driver and turn this over to LR, or am I getting the best results possible with the printer managing color anyway?
    I am using a 2.4 GHz Intel iMac with OS 10.5.4, 2 gigs SDRAM, standard ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro video card. I downloaded the Canon printer driver from their website, so I assume this is the latest. there is another driver available at their website, but for a lower bit depth. Should I abandon the 10.1.2.0 for this other one? I work with Nikon D300 NEFs, and I assumed the higher bit depth printer driver will work better with these images.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Dear DYP: Unfortunately, those choices are not available in the 10.1.2.0 Canon Printer driver. There are only 2 radio buttons, ColorSync and Vendor Matching. ColorSync then provides a drop-down menu, with no choice for turning off the printer driver.
    But I think I found the answer. I found a deeply buried FAQ on the Canon site (no direct URL; sorry!) Here it says:
    "Issue: How do I disable the printer driver color correction when using the CUPS driver in Mac OS X 10.5.x?
    Solution: Change color management options for printing (Mac OS X 10.5.x)
    Change color management options for printing
    Open the document you wish to print.
    Click 'File' and then click 'Print.'
    Note: If the Print window contains only two pop-up menus, click the triangle beside the Printer pop-up menu for expanded options.
    Select 'Color Matching' from the Print Options pop-up menu.
    Select 'ColorSync' if you want the application you are using, and not the printer driver, to control the color management of the printed output.
    Note: If you are using Adobe Photoshop CS2 or CS3 and have selected 'Let Photoshop Determine Colors', the 'Color Matching' from the Print Options pop-up menu is automatically set to 'ColorSync.'
    Select 'Vendor Matching' if you want the printer driver to control the color management of the printed output."
    I tried it, and chose "Automatic" as a choice in ColorSync. The choices under "Color Options" are then greyed out, implying that the Canon driver is now turned off.
    The prints came out great, with no color cast, and a little brighter than the printer managed prints.
    So, Vendor Managed means printer manages, ColorSync means LR manages.
    Thanks, everyone, for keeping me going on tracking this down!

  • Faxing with the Canon Pixma MX860?

    I just bought this printer,mostly so I could network print with my tablet PC, but partly so I could fax directly from my Mac. My old Canon couldn't do it: I had to print the document, and then put it on the platen of the printer, and fax from there (kinda defeats the purpose, no?!). So when I read all the specs on the Apple Store website (http://store.apple.com/us/product/TV352LL/A) that included specs on Faxing, I figurered, why would they make all that fuss if it couldn't fax from the Mac? But it now appears that I'm back in the 20th century. I called Canon, and was told that I'd be able to fax directly from the (Vista) laptop, but not my Mac! How can this be true?!?! (I have a Mac V 10.5.7). My new Mac does not have a built-in modem. Why can't it use the one in the Canon? Does anybody have a work-around????? Thanks.

    Checking the Canon web site, there is no fax driver for OS X for this model, so you are out of luck. In fact, looking at several other models of the MX series, there is no fax driver for Mac OS X. So it seems that Canon has once again shown its usual support for Mac owners.
    With the machines that can fax from the OS X desktop, like my MF4680, when you connect the machine to the Mac and select to add a printer queue, you see two printer names - one of which has the word fax. To add this queue you need to install the fax driver, which is a separate driver to the printer driver.

  • Macbook Air and the Canon Pixma MG2200

    Hi,
    I moved to England and am still using a Macbook Air from the US. I recently purchased a Canon Pixma MG2200 printer and would like to use it...however it will not work on my mac. I've download the necessary software, restarted my computer, purchased the correct usb chords, etc. It just simply won't appear on my computer at all. Any advice?

    I had a similar problem with my Canon printer but after it had been working.  It stopped wirelessly connecting to my MBA but did connect wirelessly to our MacBook.  I turned it and my MBA off, waited, turned them back on and it did not fix the problem.  Then we had some electrical work done on the house and the power was out for 15 minutes.  That fixed it!  So the first action I suggest you unplug it, wait a minute or more and then plug it in again.
    I found it useful to install the software form the CD provided with the printer rather than downloading the drivers.  The download options were confusing with different drivers for different functions and the scanner did not work from the System Preferences > Print & Scan menu until I installed the software from the CD.
    If all else fails contact Canon.  It could be DOA and clearly is covered under the Canon warranty.
