My Canon MX892 stopped printing Wirelessly - any ideas??

I have been printing wirelessly from my macbook pro without any issues for over a month..then all of a sudden the printer is not being recognized. I have powered on and off..reset the printer on the wireless network multiple times. I removed the printer from the computer and reinstalled the driver - NOTHING. Anyone have any suggestions that could help me?

So I guess there is a problem - this is what I got:
Ping has started…
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down

--- 192.168.1.6 ping statistics ---

So what can I do to fix that? When I put in my wireless info pw it says connected - so I'm confused. It was working perfectly for over a month until today - it just stopped being recognized. Any advice woudl be appreciated! Thanks!

I just purchased a Canon MG5220. I have installed all of the updated drivers for 10.7.3. The scanner is working wirelessly, but I can't add my printer. Any ideas?

With most multi-function devices, you need to run the printer manufacturer's setup/configuring program first. That will either "Add" the printer directly, or make it discoverable in the "Add-a-Printer" window. Look around, you probably downloaded that program when you downloaded the Driver.

Mac os 10.6.8 & hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) stopped printing wirelessly.

hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) prints from mac os 10.6.8 with a usb, but stopped printing wirelessly
HP Network Configuration Page states Network Status: ready and Active Connection Type: Wireless
Wireless Network Test Report - looks A-O.K.
Turned off modem, printer and laptop & restarted modem, printer, laptop computer
Seems that the computer can't "find" the printer, maybe.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

If you open System Preferences --> Print & Fax and click the "+" symbol at the bottom of the printer list on the side, you should get an "Add Printer" dialog window to pop open. Is your printer visible in that window?
If not, try printing a configuration report from the printer, to get the IP address your printer currently has. If you type that number into your web browser of choice (Safari, Firefox, etc.), does the printer's "embedded web server" page load?
If so, you could set up the printer on your Mac using the IP address in the "Add Printer" dialog. To do that, you select "IP" at the top of the window rather than "Default" (which is a discovery list), and paste the IP address into the "Address" field. If the printer is available, it should pick the model automatically.

The warmup stage does not seem to go all the way through its normal startup noises and the printer does not get hot.
Thanks for any help.

Be sure to try restarting, if you have not done so since this problem occurred. You should also power off the printer while you do the restart...
If that does not help, you can try resetting the printing system. Open System Preferences Print & Scan (or Print & Fax) pane. In the sidebar with list of printers, right (control) click anywhere. Select Reset printing system. You will have to add back your printers after you do this.

Photoshop CS6 update crashes everytime I go to print. Any ideas?? Help!!!

With the lastest update to Photoshop CS6 it crashes everytime I go to print. Any ideas?? Help!!!

Have you installed all the updates for Photoshop?
And what does the crash report say?
Most of these issues turn out to be bugs in the printer driver software, but some are curable by resetting Photoshop preferences (which also resets the "last used" printer info).

Upon opening itunes it will process the artwork, then proceed to determine gapless playback information. It will analyze a few songs the completely stop working. Any Ideas?

Upon opening itunes it will process the artwork, then proceed to determine gapless playback information. It will analyze a few songs the completely stop working. Any Ideas?

Repeated execution of the "determining gapless playback information" process may also be a symptom of corruption in your iTunes Library.itl file (the main iTunes database). If you have a recent backup it may be worth restoring that (especially if it immediately precedes addition of the skipping files). However, the two symptoms you are seeing may be interrelated, i.e., the "determining gapless playback information" repetition and the skipping music may both be caused by incomplete or corrupt media files. If possible, find and (re)move all the media files - you should be able to do a date-based search in Windows Explorer - and try restarting iTunes. Of course, you should backup your library first so that it can be restored if the media files are OK.

Connecting Canon Pixma 860 Printer Wirelessly

OK, I give up! Can someone please give me the steps on how to connect my Canon Pixma 860 printer wirelessly to my iMac? I am running Snow Leopard, all drivers are up to date, and I have a 2Wire AT&T modem/router. I've Googled, "forumed", called tech support and prayed, to no avail. This can't be this difficult! I would greatly appreciate assistance on this. It's now become a matter of principle to me. Thanks all....

Modesto:
I have a Pixma 800 and I assume setting up yours is the same as mine. You have to connect the printer to the computer via USB cable directly and set it up wired with the setup disc that came with the printer. After you've done this disconnect the USB cable from the computer and connect it to the USB port of your router. In my case, it is the Airport Extreme station. I'm not sure after this but I would go to System Preferences under the Apple and then click on printer and Fax. If you do not find the printer there, click on the "+" and after a time, the printer should show up because the printer driver has been downloaded. I don't know if your printer driver has been downloaded with the Apple OS software. Then click on the Pixma 800 which should show up and then click add. I'm not sure about the rest but you must first make a direct USB connection between the printer and the computer. I hope this starts you on the way.

Hi I have been successfully printing from my ipad2 wirelessly to HP printer but for no apparent reason it has stopped . Any ideas please ?

Try clearing your printer queue. Double click the bottom button to see your active apps and scroll to find your printer app. Cancel all documents listed for printing. Hopefully you'll b able to print again. This solution worked for me recently.

I'm trying to get my new airport extreme to print wirelessly to my samsung clx usb printer and not having any luck. I downloaded the bonjour print wizard and I know there's a signal going to the printer, but it still will not print? Any ideas?

I'm trying to wirelessly print to my samsung printer. I've downloaded the bonjour printer wizard and could tell that a signal was going to my printer but it still would not print. Anyone have any ideas?

You didn't state how it's connected to each computer, if it's connected through your router then it should work. If it doesn't then you need to contact Canon and ask for assistance.

Canon Pixma 880 says it needs paper but it doesn't. Won't print. Any ideas

I tried reloading the paper in the tray and tried using the other trays. No luck. Any ideas?

Hi SnowLizard,
On the screen of your printer, it should tell you exactly where to load to the paper (Load paper in the cassette; for example). Once you determine where the printer is trying to pull paper, check to ensure that the paper is loaded properly. Try a single sheet at first, then add about 10 sheets and try again.
If it still will not pull or detect the paper, then the printer may need to be serviced. Please feel free to Contact Us, we will be happy to explain your service options and assist you with this issue.

Canon BJC85 stopped printing after change of ink cartridge

Hello,
my mother uses the small Canon BJC85 in combination with her Mac mini. But after she changed the colour printing head against the black only printing head, she can't print any more with the standard driver (GIMP works, but the quality is bad).
Each time she tries to print, printing is stopped without further explanation. After searching for a while, I found in an error.log at /var/log, that the driver posts an error message there stating that the print head doesn't fit to the setup. But I don't know how to change the setup (and anyhow, this is a Mac! It should change the setup by himself?!). I posted the question at the canon support page a week ago, but didn't get an answer.
Any ideas from you who to clearify this? Resetting the printing system as described in Apples other forums doesn't help.
Thanks in advance,
Gernot

Then you will not be able to print directly to it from the iPad. The iPad's only way of connecting to a network is via a wireless signal.There are apps in the apps store that facilitate connecting to a printer by way of a computer. You might explore that.
