How to connect Canon MP470 with USR5461 Print Server on Leopard 10.5

Question

The main problem I had with adding this printer is that the drivers from Canon's website do not work. Do not download and use the CUPS driver provided from Canon.
You need to use this driver which should be included on your MacBook: Canon PIXMA MP150 - Gutenprint v5.1.3
Here are the steps:
1) Go to System Preferences
2) Click on Print & Fax
3) Hold down alt/option next to control and click the + sign to add a printer.
4) Select advanced from the tabs above. Note: If you do not see an advanced icon on the top toolbar, right click and click customize toolbar to add the advanced button (the fact that you have to do that is weird to me).
5) Wait for a little while when you enter into advanced and it will eventually give you a list of printing protocol types. Select the drop down labelled types and select Internet Printing Protocol (http)
6) Enter the URI http://192.168.2.1:1631/printers/My_Printer
7) If you changed your router address replace 192.168.2.1 with whatever address you use to access your router's settings page.
8) Select the driver Canon PIXMA MP150 - Gutenprint v5.1.3
9) You may enter the location of your printer if you want i.e. Brad's Room or where ever your printer is located.
10) Click add printer.
11) You should be back to the Printer & Fax screen. Double click the newly added printer on the list to your left. That will open the printer queue.
12) Then select Printer from the system menu on top and select print test page.
13) Make sure your printer is on and everything is connected.
14) Happy printing.

Answer 1

Actually there is a better way. I had been having problems on my new Macbook with OSX 10.5 but not on my Mac Mini running OSX 10.4. After doing some searching I figured out that it had something to do with the way 10.5 handles CUPS whatever that is. After sitting on hold with Apple forever they blamed it on USR even though my other Mac running 10.4 and my Windows machines all work fine.
Since Apple refuses to admit it is there problem here is the work around I came up with. It is a two parter. Before you start make sure your printer driver is installed just like you would if your printer was connect directly to your Mac.
First Part
1) Open the "printer and fax" control panel
2) Delete the old printer set up through the USR5461
3) Click the "+" sign to add a new printer
4) Here is the tricky part apple doesn't tell you. You need to go into "advanced set up but there is no obvious way to do that. Right click on the blank spot next to more printers and select "customize tool bar".
5) Click and drag the sprocket called "Advanced" to the tool bar"
6) Then click the "advanced" icon in the tool bar.
7) Give it a few seconds before clicking anything. Then in the "type" drop down menu choose "internet printing protocol (http)"
8) Enter the IP address of your printer (the default for the USR5461 is http://192.168.2.1:1631/printers/My_Printer)
9) Name the printer and fill in the location field with whatever you like
10) From the drop down menu choose "select a printer to use" and then find your printer driver.
11) Then hit the "add" button at the bottom and you are done with the first part
Second Part
1) Use your browser to go to http://192.168.2.1/device.asp (this may require you to log into your USR5461)
2) About halfway down you will see "Check the U.S. Robotics Web site for an update." and click the link
3) The link takes you to a page where you have to select your device (USR5461 under "wireless")
4) There you can find a "beta firmware update 3.93.35.0.9 (Jun 5 2008)", download that.
Then go back to http://192.168.2.1/device.asp and upload the firmware file and choose "ugrade"
5) Once you do this it will take about 30-60 seconds for your USR5461 to come back online. Wait until it is completely rebooted and check the firmware to make sure the update is correct. If so you are done with the second part.
Now try printing. I hope this works for everyone.
Well, to get the Advanced tab choice, I had to customize the Add Printer toolbar: there you can add a handy Advanced button. Press that, and there you'll find the Tiger functionality hiding!
