Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
This Apple Support Communities thread started in November 2010 has a minor tweak to OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) that will probably allow your printer to work. Originally published for 10.6.5, I'm using in on OS X 10.6.7, and have used it successfully with both 10.6.6 and 10.6.8.
Note that your Mac has to be on in order to print.

(Sorry, haven't tested with newest OS X 10.7 Lion, and have no plans to upgrade to Lion.)
There is also a free Canon app in the app store for printing photos only.

  • How do I get to the 'Print Mode Choice Box' in the Apple provided software for a Canon Pixma IP6210D Series printer?

    I downloaded the Apple software for my Pixma, IP6210D series printer.  There is no 'Color Matching', option or 'print options', pop up menu available.  According to the instructional book that came with the printer - the Mac how-to section those options should be available.
    In the 'Page Setup', dialog box the 'OK' button is not listed.  The two choices are cancel and print. 
    How on earth do I get to the 'Print Options', box?
    Thank you for your help.

    Sounds like you have the print dialog minimised, as shown.
    If you click the triangle next to the printer name, this will expand the print dialog and from this view you can see all the menu options as mentioned in the guide.

  • I have mac os 10.7.4 update for hp photosmart c4100 series printer (printer needs a driver), where do I find a driver?

    I have mac os 10.7.4 update for hp photosmart c4100 series printer (printer needs a driver), where do I find a driver?

    The last driver that Canon released for the iP6600D was v10.51 for OS X 10.7. You could try downloading and installing this driver via this link.
    Note that the driver may not be digitally signed so Gatekeeper will block its installation. To get past Gatekeeper, you can right-click on the installer and select Open from the pop-up menu that appears. You will then be given the option to install the driver.

  • Since changing over to a new BT hub my iPad mini will not recognise an Epson XP printer although this worked fine with Sky. Printer and iPad set up for new hub and independently recognise hub

    Since changing over to a new BT home hub, my iPad mini does not recognise an Epson XP 305 air printer although system worked well on previous Sky hub. Both printer and iPad set up and recognise hub independently. Has anyone come across this problem?

    Do you know why there have been multiple disconnections?

  • Connecting a Canon Pixma IP3500 series printer to iMac

    I am having trouble connecting my canon iP3500 series printer to my iMac (intel-based). I have installed the cd and my iMac will not recognize the printer. My usb ports are built into my computer so I can not connect the printer through a wired connection. I am connected to the internet wirelessly through an Airport Extreme connection. Does anyone know how to connect my printer so my iMac will recognize it??

    One early question: Did you follow the instructions included with the printer??? From your brief post it certain doesn't sound like it. Not being critical; however, the many printers that I have installed with various computers, including 3 different Macs, always had step by step instructions which were very important to follow in the order that was given. For example, typically the printer itself is unpacked and set up with print/ink cartridges etc; then, the CD that was supplied with the printer is used to install software to the Mac; at some point in the CD installation process, the software will say to connect the printer to the computer usually via USB cable. This is a critical step, connecting the printer's USB port to the computer iMac's USB port, to enable the computer to communicate and configure the printer. This step is when the printer is installed in the computer hardware list. So, I would suggest that you get the instructions and proceed step by step. I don't have a clue what you mean when you say, "My usb ports are built into my computer so I can not connect the printer through a wired connection." What? All USB ports are "built into" computers! That's exactly how you do connect to the printer: running the USB cable from the computer port to the printer port. Hope this helps, Kristin.

  • What is "Printer WS" for my Canon MX710 series printer?

    In addition to "Canon MX710 series Printer," there is a "Canon MX710 series Printer WS" listed.  I never print to the WS one, and would like to remove it from my printer list to reduce the icon options.  What is it and why would I want to print to it?  Couldn't find a clear answer to this on the net or in this forum.  Thanks.

    Web Services, and it makes a difference when you try to connect wirelessly to your pc if you have printer WS selected or not.

  • Ipad set up for a school

    OK need some advise on seting up new ipad's for my son's school. Issue is how or what itunes do u use to activate the ipad's. I belive you need a credit card to open an itunes acc. school's dont hve that.

    You sign out of your ID in Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID, then sign onto the school ID in order to use it. You know your situation better than I do, but when you switch ID's on the iPad and go back and forth in order to download purchases, you run the risk of locking yourself out of one of the ID's for 90 days.
    Read this about associated devices.

  • How do you set up for AirPrint an HP110A wireless printer without a PC on a wifi network using a Verizon FIOS router)

    Purchasing an HP110A wireless printer for my 85 year old father who has and Ipad
    This pritner is fully compatible with Airplay per HP site
    My dad has no PC
    He knows the router passcode.
    What is the process?
    Will the HP printer to be purchased shortly work out of the box w/no drivers
    How do you set the printer up to work on the iPad?

    Richard-
    I have the HP D110 AirPrint printer.  As I recall, it was configured in Ad Hoc network mode when first received.  It was necessary to set it up to access my WiFi router before I could use it with the internet connection.  Then, as part of the setup process, it downloaded the latest firmware update from HP.  This was all done from the printer control panel, and no PC was needed.
    As Pvonk mentioned, your router must be able to correctly handle Bonjour data for iPad to print to an AirPrint printer.  Go ahead and try it, it may work.  If the iPad can't find the printer, you will need to contact Verizon for help in configuring the router or getting a different router that is compatible.
    By now, you should realize that a PC is needed to update the iPad.  I assume your Dad visits you when he needs use of a PC.

  • How install driver for Canon pixma iP 1200 printer?

    I found in AUR driver for pixma iP 1500 (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd)
    and install it.
    And found driver for printer pixma iP 4200 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd.
    Do driver pixma iP 1500 good for my printer, Canon pixma iP 1200? Or maybe need install other driver?

    Hi newlife4rich,
    Before you go through the effort of reinstalling the drivers, I think this might be an issue on the pritner side.  What error are you getting on the computer?  Also, do you get any error codes on the printer as well like E 1, E 2, etc..?

  • Scanning problems with Canon Pixma 5300 series after upgrading to newest Macbook Pro

    Are there drivers available for Canon pixma 5300 series for OS X Mavericks 10.9?
    Scanning with my brand new Macbook pro using  OS X 10.9 just isn't working like it used to with my old white Macbook.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Do you have an MG53xx? If so, then a scanner driver for this model is available from Apple so that you can scan with Image Capture / Preview. So if you open Printers and Scanners and select the MG53xx, you should have two tabs - Print and Scan.
    Canon also has a scanning application called MP Navigator available from their web site. To use this application you will also need to download and install the scanner driver for the MG53xx, which should also be available from the same Canon web site.

  • I changed my Apple ID a while ago but my iPad is asking for the old one to set up iCloud?

    I changed my Apple ID a while ago because I got a new email address, and it works fine when I am downloading apps or music etc. but I just got the iOS 6 update on my iPad and it's asking for the password to my old apple ID to set up iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime. I followed the steps to reset my password, but it's not working because its asking about the old email address and I can't seem to change it. It's an optional step but I'd like to be able to have this stuff set up on my iPad. Thanks for the help!

    If you need to change the ID for iMessage, go to Settings>Massages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you need to change the ID for FaceTime, do the same thin in Settings>FaceTime.
    If you need to change the ID for iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • HT4061 My Ipad is aking for a passcode but i never set one up after upgrading ios

    I bought an ipad saturday. Sunday i upgraded to ios 7. Once completed, i turned it back on and was working fine. Late that night, I asked to put a passcode but i never set up for one. It didn't asked to put a new passcode when it was upgrading. No i can't get to the screen until i put the 4 digits code. Please help... thanks

    Hi,
    There are three things you can do.
    1) Type 0000. That is normally the standard passcode, or try 1234.
    2) Do a reset by holding the on/off and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
    3) Look at this - by restoring it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808?viewlocale=en_US
    Hope this helps!
