I need to buy a new printer! Compatibility

I need to buy a new printer this weekend as mine has just broke.
I don't like HP
Can someone tell me if cannon printers will work with the soon to be released Apple print application? Or what brands are compatible I've heard it's only HP but this does not makensense to me.
Please help as I'm buying tomorrow.

As of now, the only printers to support AirPrint are the HP Officejet Pro 8500A, the HP Photosmart Premium Fax e-All-in-One, and the HP Photosmart e-All-in-One. Any printer that is connected to a computer and shared on the network through that computer will also work, although the computer must be turned on and connected to the network. Other printers may be compatible eventually, but at the moment, only the 3 HP printers support it. Several other printers are supported by printing applications.

    Hello stacksofamber and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    You should be able to find a Mac OSX driver for that printer. Did you check with the manufacturer/'s website?

  • I upgraded to Yosemite and I'm told I need to buy a new printer. Any way around this?

    Hello ~ I recently upgraded to Yosemite. Unfortunately, I didn't realize (didn't notice?) that, as a result, my Canon MP620 printer is no longer compatible with my Mac. I certainly don't want to buy a new printer and, with my limited use of my computer, I really don't need and update. Do I have any options? Thank you.

    Do you know that it's not compatible with Yosemite because you've tried it and it doesn't work? Canon is showing software that's compatible with Mavericks, as well as some which is compatible with Yosemite, and if you haven't already installed it, you might give it a try.

  • To buy a new printer or new print head?

    Hi,
    I have a canon i9100 a3 printer which is 6 years old. the print head has had it, so i need to either buy a new print head for £60, or buy a new printer and i can't decide which one would be better.
    I don't want to spend more than around £250 on a new printer.
    So my question is, would the extra £190 on a new printer be worth the extra quality, of as i've already invested £350 in the i9100 would it be better to buy a new print head for it as the difference would be negligible.
    thanks!

    Hello Martin,
    I think one point that may have been missed by everyones price offerings is that you have an A3 capable printer. I don't think you will be able to get another A3 printer for anything under £250. The Canon iX5000 is the cheapest of the current Canon A3 printers and it retails for AUS$599. Checking the NexTag UK site, the prices range from £235 to £357.
    But even with those prices, there is definitely advantages to buying new rather than spend money on an old dog. The increase in the number of inks used and the advances in ink permanence are one factor. If you are printing mainly A3 posters, then the new ChromaLife inks print a very nice image in combination with 6 to 8 ink printers on photo paper.
    Driver support would be the next important matter. If you do update to 10.6, you want to ensure that the your model is also supported, something that a lot of early adopters have not factored and are being caught out.
    The last item is parts. Vendors typically keep parts for 5 to 7 years. If you have had the printer for 6 years but it was already out for six months before you bought it, then you may only have another 6 month window of being able to get more parts should something else fail...

    Printopia is another option but be aware that since these solutions effectively act as a print server and AirPrint receiver, they require a computer to be running on the same WiFi network.
    Canon also has a couple of apps in the App Store that might facilitate this on non-AirPrint printers. Check out...

  • I don't understandwhy i need to buy a new charger cable for my iphone 5 every week. why can't you make a normal cable, that doesn't stop working? i csn't spend so much money on buying new cablesall the time.

    these cable are so delicate that after one week of use they break down. i can't spend all my money on buying them. moreover, last week it broke down on saturday eve so i was stuck untill tuseday without a phone.
    i have to say that this compan is so rude, and it took me like an hour to sign in and write this complain, and i'm not even sure if it's the right place to wright this sort of things.
    apple's customer service is the wort customer service in the world.

    I don't understand why you need to buy a new one every week. I've had my iPhnoe 5 for almost a year, never had a problem with the cable. In addition, your phone is can't be more than a year old. Therefore, unless you're damaging them, your cable is under warranty and Apple will replace it. Perhaps you should have tried actually availing yourself of Apple's customer service before complaining about it.
    Best of luck.

  • I aam thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac.  Will I need to buy a new Apple compatible version of Lightroom, do I have to pay to upgrade or can I get the new version free?

    I am thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac.  Will I need to buy a new, Apple compatible, version of Lightroom, or can I upgrade to it, or can I get it free as I've paid for the PC version?

    Your licence is not platform specific, so Lightroom can be used on any two machines (Mac and/or WIndows), with one actually being used at any given time.
    So no, you're money's safe!

  • Do I need to buy a new optical drive?

    Wouah, really strange things happening.
    A couple of weeks ago, I had to burn something like a hundred DVDs, but couldn't complete coz my drive (a Pionneer 111D) was refusing to burn 2 in every four DVD. Thought the problem was from the media itself. Left it there...
    Then came Snow Leopard, installed it, all went fine, exept my drive is not detecting some DVD that I know are good, it tells me the media is blank, though it's not.
    Thought it may be because of the new system, so I did a firmware update, now my drive is a pionneer 111L, but it still doesn't detect those DVD; so i thought, if it's a problem with the system, i am going to install Leopard, but the drive didn't even recognize the install DVD, so I had to install Tiger, which I did, and guess what the drive doesn't recognize those medias.
    So my question, to be short, do I need to buy a new drive, and if yes what the best option. I have a MAC PRO early 2006 first gen.
    Thanks for any kind of advice, maybe if I can get it back to normal.

    Your MacPro should have two optical drive bays in it---Drives are cheap (mine £25)--Installation simple. I say buy a second, my second was as below. If your OEM works, or you buy two new drives, it makes copying disks easy. There are some instruction on OD insertion on the net but just look at your Mac Pro manual re the drive bays. You stick the second drive onto the little branch of the ribbon cable.
    Search in this forum for (say) 'second optical drive MacPro' but someone will likely remember the installation help page for you. My second drive:-
    PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-116D:
    Firmware Revision: 1.06
    Interconnect: ATAPI
    Burn Support: Yes (Generic Drive Support)
    Profile Path: None
    Cache: 2000 KB
    Reads DVD: Yes
    CD-Write: -R, -RW
    DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
    Write Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, CD-Raw, DVD-DAO
    Media: To show the available burn speeds, insert a disc and choose View > Refresh'

  • I just purchased a 3TB Time Capsule.  I live in Italy and have 220V power.  The Time Capsule is rated for that, but the cord says 125V.  Can I use this cord with an adapter, or do I need to buy a new cord at an Italian store?

    Due to the kind of plug used the US power cord is rated at the 125v value.. and legally we cannot advise you to use on higher voltages.. although I have never had issues in Australia.. 240v.
    But adapters from your Euro power plug to US are generally ugly .. unsightly things.. and often sit high above the socket and are none too stable.. I agree with Bob.. just go out and buy a standard figure 8 power cord.. check with Apple in Italy for a white one.. if you are going to have it on show.. black are far more common. Or even check ebay for a standard power Apple power cord as a number of items they sell use the figure8 socket. 

  • When I try to install ios lion the installer says my hard drive has SMART errors and that I need to buy a new Hard Drive, but my computer witch has snowleprd and runs just fine

    When I try to install ios lion the installer says my hard drive has SMART errors and that I need to buy a new Hard Drive, but my computer witch has snowleprd and runs just fine.

    SMART is a technology that monitors the drive for signs of impending failure. You can verify that SMART is indicating a problem in Disk Utility. Select the hard drive and look at the bottom of the window. It should look like this:
    If the SMART status is not "Verified" then you should back up your drive and start shopping for a new one.

  • Switching from Mac to Windows. Do I need to buy a new Ps?

    Hello there,
    Since I'm planning on buying the Wacom Companion for being able to work on-the-go, I was wondering if I also needed to buy a new version of Photoshop.
    I bought Photoshop CS 5 for Mac a few years back and don't really need a newer version. But at my Downloads page I can only find the option to download Photoshop for Mac and not Windows. Shouldn't I be able to download a Windows version as well or do I really have to spend another couple of hundred bucks on a new CS 6? That would blow immensely.
    Kind regards,
    Hans

    $200 to upgrade and costs nothing to change to a Mac license.
    Order product | Platform, language swap
    I think Mylenium said that you can install and use the Mac version for 30 day trial while waiting for the swap to go through.

  • Do i need to buy a new soundcard(Creative Inspsire T7900???

    i bought the Creative inspire t7900 and try to connect to my pc(integrated soundmax digital audio - three outputs-pink,green,blue.), but in all of ways i i've tried to connect it only front speakers(or only side s.,rear s.-depending on way of connection) and subwoofer worked. So do i need to buy a new soundcard(what kind of cards is going well with this sound system)?.............looking for a solution ..thanx

    With those speakers it is recommended to use one of the great Sound Blaster 7.1 cards (Audigy 2 ZS, Audigy 2 NX or Audigy 4 Pro). You will have the best features like: hardware Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES decoding, superior 24-bit Advanced HD quality audio, CMSS 3D audio technology, ASIO 2.0 support, DVD-Audio, and many more.
    Wether you will use it for movies, games or music, it covers all the areas, so you won't have problems in any application.
    Good luck.
