IPF8100 won't print after installing Mac driver 3.04

just installed the new Mac driver for my Canon ipf8100 printer (it's driver 3.04). Now when I print a job it spools for a while, then says "cannot find destination. Please check printers power connection". But if I just open the printer utility itself, it does see the printer on my network - shows me ink levels and even lets me print a nozzle check page. So I know the printer is hooked up correctly and operational. So why can't I print to the printer from any of my programs? I've tried printing from Word, Photoshop, and InDesign and always get the same issue.

Restart in Safe Mode and then re try. If you are not familiar with a Safe Mode restart, Apple explains how in:

  • DeskJet 5550 won't print after installing new black ink cartridge.

    I recently got a new Dell computer with Windows Vista 64-bit OS.  Printer was working fine until I replaced the black ink cartridge.  It printed out the check page like normal after installing the cartridge but will not print anything else now.  Not even a test page.  I tried pulling the cartridge out and putting it back in.  Tried unplugging the plugs on the back of the printer and plugging back in.  Tried turning the printer off and back on.  Also tried restarting the computer.  I downloaded the HP Print Diagnostic Report and it could not find any problems.  Could there be a problem with the ink cartridge itself?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Well first I went and bought another black ink cartridge to rule out the cartridge being the problem.  That was not it.  So then I unplugged the printer and cleaned it thoroughly and plugged it back in.  Still didn't work.  So I went into the properties on my printer and started messing with the settings.  FINALLY I FIXED IT!  I clicked on the Advanced Tab and then clicked on Print Processor.  I then changed it to WinPrint and retried the Print Test Page on the General Tab and it worked!  Woo Hoo!

    Me too!   On a HP LaserJet 1020, when I try to print from the Internet.

  • Canon Pixma 8120 won't print after new hard drive + TC install

    I have a great Pixma 8120 which was previously successfully networked wirelessly to an intel imac SL 10.6.8 and
    a Macbook Pro running Lion.  Our internet connection is Fios via router and the imac had been connected via
    ethernet to the Fios router. 
    Last week, the imac's hard drive needed to be replaced - Apple Geniuses
    installed the new hard drive at the apple store and restored all of the data.   I bought a new Time Capsule
    and backed up the new hard drive as soon as I got it home (yes I got religion). 
    I now have the TC connected via ethernet
    to the router and set up a new network -- connected both the imac and the macbook  via airport no problem.  Nice
    fast internet (safari). 
    The problem is the Canon printer.  I configured the printer to recognize the new network over the TC and was able to
    connect it via wi-fi to the access point.  When printing however, the printer icon pops up in the dock and looks like its starting
    to process the job but then the job disappears fromt the print queue screen.  poof.  nothing. 
    I  suspect I may have a problem with the TC's security settings not being compatible with the canon - the canon manual does say something about the canon not supporting "enterprise" and I did see that in the TC settings.   
    I have a huge work project due tomorrow so I decided to forego the wireless thing for now and just hook the printer up
    via USB to the imac.  I reinstalled the Canon software following the all directions for when to plug in the USB in the process. 
    It didn't work.  Then  I went to the Canon support page and downloaded/installed  an updated driver. Now I have
    a nice new looking printer icon but when I try to print it starts and then gives me a "communication error has occured"
    message -- error 306.
    Does anyone have advice for me? 

    Never mind.  I realized that I needed to ethernet the imac to the TC.
    I just got the Canon to print. Sorry to bother.

  • Won't boot after installing scanner driver

    I am running Leopard on a MacPro.
    I installed a Microtek scanner driver and when it rebooted it just constantly shows the winding gear. It won't go into safe mode, I have tried to use disk warrior and rebuilt the drive, I also tried to do an archival install and it said it cant install... Any other suggestions?

    Hi Kyle,
    Are you holding down the C key when you boot the MacPro from your restore disk?
    See if you can run the Apple Hardware Test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2684
    You can try booting in Single User Mode:
    Home Index
    *Starting up in single-user mode*
    If you want to troubleshoot the startup sequence of your computer using only UNIX commands, you can start up your computer in single-user mode. You should do this only if you are comfortable with UNIX.
    To start up in single-user mode:
    Choose Apple menu > Restart, or press the power button if the computer is turned off.
    Press Command-S as the computer starts up.
    The computer screen is black with standard white text. You can now run the UNIX commands that you want.
    In single-user mode, not all functions of Mac OS X are available. To use the Mac OS X interface or other high-level aspects of Mac OS X, you need to start up in the standard mode.
    To switch back to the Mac OS X interface, type reboot and press the Return key. The computer restarts and you see the login dialog or the Mac desktop, depending on your login preferences.

  • Epson R280 printer won't print after Apple Epson driver update

    I have a 27" iMac running Mountain Lion. I use an Epson R280 printer to print directly onto CD/DVD media. Have used this printer daily for over three years. After an Apple Epson Driver update, I get a 'communication error' message and cannot print. Uninstalled and reinstalled printer. Power cycled printer and rebooted iMac. No Change. Hooked up same printer to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks and printer works. Ideas?

    Thanks, Eric. I had tried that previously, but had no luck. I would add the printer back in after Reset, and it still didn't work. The real key step which I found from a previous solution was taking the existing print drivers in Library/Printers/Epson and trashing that folder and then emptying the trash. With those drivers gone, when I rebooted and then powered up and added the printer, Apple prompted me to download new drivers, and 'Voila!'. Back up and running. Thanks much.

  • Mac Mini won't start after installing OS X 10.6.3

    My Mac Mini won't start after installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.3. When I turn it on, the Apple logo appears and the initialization line starts to fill, but it suddenly stops. It does that again and stops at the same point, but this time it shuts down. What should I do?

    If you are coming from 10.5.8, hopefully you backed up your important data first. Your mini will need at minimum, 1 GB of RAM to install Snow Leopard and at least 5 GB of storage remaining on your boot drive.
    I treat 10.6.3 as a fresh, full install over a 10.5.8 system. That means I choose Disk Utility from the Installer's menu and repartition the boot drive as a single partition, Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) format, and use the GUID partition scheme from the options button. At this point, while still in Disk Utility, I would verify the drive under First Aid.
    Then I turn the installer loose, and reboot into a working 10.6.3 system, ready for the software updates that take the machine to 10.6.8.
    So, following the above guidelines, reinstall 10.6.3.

    After installing Mac OSX Snow Leopart 10.6.3 my HP Photosmart C5500 won't scan to computer.  The printer is working. What do I have to do to be able to scan again?

    Often, you have to download updated vendor software drivers when you switch operating systems. HP doesn't list a C5500 on their web site, however, here's the link to the OS X 10.6 C5540 software.  If you have one of the other C55xx models, look for the updated driver/scan software on their software/driver download section of HP.Com.

  • Printer won't work after installing mountain lion?

    printer won't work after installing mountain lion?

    Assuming you've first checked Software Update to see if there are any updated drivers and it's still not working, you could try resetting the printing system.
    System Preferences>Print & Scan, Control+Click or Right Click on a printer on the left and select 'reset printing system'. All printers will be deleted and need to be added again.

  • Unable to print after installing the new Quicktime upgrade

    I can not print to my Epson printer after installing the new Quicktime upgrade on my PowerBook G4 (1.67 GHz, OS X Version 10.4.11). I have re-installed the driver from Epson (several times), and have safe booted and reset my permissions but it will not print. My printer is a Epson Stylus Photo R1800. When I print, it just gives me this message... "Looking for Printer 'EPSON Stylus Photo R1800' "

  • Macbook pro won't boot after installing update 10.9.3

    macbook pro won't boot after installing update 10.9.3

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • IMac won't restart after installing OS X 10.6

    All I get after installing Mac OSX 10.6 Lion, is a spinning wheel of death. What is going on that it won't restart properly?

    Nevermind, I have found a work around. Have to start in "safe mode" then the Setup Assistant will launch properly and the Software Update also works properly.
    On to Lion & 10.8!
    Thanks for reading my post.
