My Canon pixma pro 100 is having trouble installing its rear driver? any suggestions?- ty

When I instal the softwear; I get a warning that I belive is linked to my problem. It is the only indicator of a problem with my printer use. I have download the driver directly from the site with no improvment- see below.

I have the Pixma Pro-100. But I'm using Windows 7, so I'm afraid I can't be a lot of help to you. I tried to help someone in another forum the other day and showed some screenshots, but he said he didn't have anything like that on the Mac.
If you're going to use ICC profiles, you have to turn off color management either in the printer or in the printer driver. It doesn't matter which one, just make sure that it gets turned off. Then what I do is I use soft proofing with the appropriate paper profile to prepare a soft proof copy for printing. After I have set my printer settings the way I want them and have everything just right in Lightroom, I save the preset for printing. And it seems to keep what I have set. If you can show me some screenshots of your printer driver, perhaps I can be of assistance.
Regardless of whether I allow Lightroom to manage the color or allow the printer to manage it, I am getting really nice prints. So I'm sure there's something that you are probably just overlooking.

    HI, i had this exact same thing.

    I also signed into my itunes and verified the computer.
    I tried a download update and it worked! don't know which made the difference, don't care!

  • Having trouble installing creative cloud. Any suggestions?

    It keeps giving me an error code 202. Saying that something is wrong with the download files. Not sure what to do. Please help!

    Hi Mcope003,
    Make sure you're installing to the default location as kglad suggests, delete the contents of the temp directory for your user account, or try installing again from a newly created admin user.
    Hope that helps,

  • Canon pixma pro 100

    Hi guys,
    I've just received my new canon pixma pro 100 printer & I'm having problems setting up. When powered up the printer instantly made a grinding noise. Switched it off a few times but the print head holder failed to slide along the rails. All stoppers & tapes have been removed so nothing to obstruct the set up process.
    Can anyone help or had similar issues?
    Thanks in advance.

    You are possitive there is no packing or tape left inside?  100% sure?

  • How to print from Lightroom 5 to Canon Pixma pro-100?

    Using Lightrooms printmodule with this printer is a big problem for me. Using Cannon Print studio Works, but then you
    loose a lot of great functionallity in LR print module.
    It seems that when I make a preset or set up printer with correct ICC profile the canon printer driver automatically resets to its own default.
    It looks like a print driver in the background resets everything i do. Very confusing and Canon support points to adobe.
    My setup:
    Macpro with  OSX 10.9.2  (latest version)
    Lightroom 5.3 (creative cloud member, always latest version)
    Canon Pixma pro-100 (bought new april 2014)
    I have looked several places on internett and it looks that there are a lot people having similar problems.
    I would appriciate any help to find an easy setup/soltion !
    Thanks in advance

  • Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer ejects 3.8 in of a 4X6 paper and prints only 2.2 in of the image printing from Photoshop CS6, I'm sure I set everything correctly - what could I be missing?

    Using Mac Pro running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) & editing & printing from Photoshop CS 6.
    Have new Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer and set it up yesterday.  First thing printed was a
    document from MS Word (a letter) 8.5 X 11 plain paper - this came out OK.  Next I fire up
    Photoshop and open a 4 X 6 inch image to do a test print.  I set it up in the print dialog as
    4X6 paper, Canon's Pro Glossy paper profile, rear tray, standard print quality, Photoshop
    manages the color.  I load the paper in the rear tray close the covers and hit print.  Now, when
    it starts to print the printer moves about 3.8 inches of paper out of the printer and starts printing
    on the remaining 2.2 inches then spits the paper out.  It does this in Photoshop (any image it doesn't
    matter), and it does it printing from Capture NX.  I have been able to get it to print on the paper
    correctly using Apple's Preview program but that that's not going to do me any good.  I was on
    the phone with Canon tech support for about 2 hours and they were completely puzzled suggesting
    I would have to use Canon's printing apps instead to print - that doesn't do me any good either.
    I want to be able to print from Photoshop.  Any one every heard of this or experienced the same
    problem? Thanks JamesD!

    Hello again. I recognize that a print is good if you like it and bad if you don't, despite what others might say, but I will at least share my experiences. They might help you or others who are following this thread.
    My monitor is calibrated with Spyder 3. Gamma 2.2, 6500K, 83 cd/m^2. Contrast at 50%; brightness about 52%. My monitor lets me choose blackness level - it defaults to 50%.
    When I print the test image I linked to above, using Lightroom, with no adjustments, my technical output is as follows:
    Middle step wedge shows twelve disticnt steps. Whitest step is color of unprinted paper.
    It varies from paper to paper, but I can discerne at least the 252 step and on some papers 253 - telling me I have good highlight detail.
    On the black side I discerne 8 or 10, nothing lower. (That sounds like what you are reporting).
    Artistically I am very happy how my print looks - nice red strawberries, good flesh tones, etc.
    One my monitor, the on-screen image is almost identical to the print. I am surprised that you can see the 2 wedge step on screen at a very similar brightness.
    I also checked out this B&W test image:

    You are probably aware of this since you are printing with Print Studio Pro, but others may not be.
    You can print a series of test images:
    find the one that best suits your taste, enter the calibration values in PSP, and save them as a custom setting. Then, each time you want to print recall the setting.
    You can do a similar thing in Lightroom using the printer driver and User Templates.
    There would be some one-time trial and error to that approach.

  • Canon Pixma pro 100 Ink how to identify the black cartridges when label was accidently removed

    I just started putting a new Canon Pixma Pro 100 printer together- I was not thinking and removed two of the grey (light), and grey cartridges labels. Now I do not know which to put in the slots, I cannot see any gradient by holding them up to the light, and the actual cartridge is not marked. I am soooo dumb, any suggestions.

    You  got a 50/50 chance.  Go for it!

  • Canon Pixma Pro-100 prints very dark

    I see that this is a recuring problem with the Canon Pixma Pro-100, but as nothing I have found online helps I'm asking and are hoping that someone can solve this problem for me.
    Just picked up a Pixma Pro-100 today, and installed it on my 2011 iMac 27" (Yosemite) with downloaded drivers from Canon's website to be sure i have the latest ones. I also checked the printers firmware but that's the latest at 1.100. Wether I'm printing via Lightroom or Photoshop; or via Canon Print Studio Pro, My Image Garden, or via LR / PS directly; with- or without PS as color manager; the prints turns out to be much to dark.
    I have to set an exposure of +2/3 in LR to be anywhere close to getting the same result as on the screen. I'm also careful to select the right ICC profiles for the correct paper. My monitor is calibrated with an Spyder4pro and I also re-calibrated it during this process to see if that helped.
    Well. Long story short; the prints are to dark. So i borrowed my wife's 2013 MacBook Pro (Yosemite) Spyder4pro, and installed the latest drivers from Canon. Again; on this machine the prints are also to dark with about +2/3 to correct for the printer to do something that looks like the monitor. Both monitors are also set to about 30% brightness.
    I also have access to an Epson Stylus Photo R3000 and the prints from this comes out much brighter.
    Sadly I see that many others also have the same problem. So; here's the question. How do I fix this? Do i have to return the printer again and get a refund? Because this is clearly not good enough.
    Solved!

  • New Canon Pixma Pro-100 printing with streaks on backgrounds

    Hello.  I just purchased the printer last week.  I'm operating on a MacBook Air.  I typically use LightRoom and Photoshop.  
    I'm a professional photographer and recently look a class at ICP and learned how to print there.  I was shocked at how beautiful the prints were.  This was using an Epson in a classroom.
    I did my research and talked to other photographers and decided the Pro-100 would be perfect for me, and so far, it is.
    I've had trouble with magenta casts when using LightRoom.  Switched to PhotoShop and got better results.  But some prints, especially those with a simple, plain background, faint lines appear across the page.
    Here's an example.  The lines appear top to bottom every 1/4 inch or so:

  • Canon Pixma Pro 100 won't print

    Hopefully someone can help.  I just purchased a new Pixma Pro 100 and diligently set it up using a USB connection to my laptop (Windows 8, 64 bit).  The printer printed the alignment page fine, but won't print anything else (including a Test Page from the device Properties box).  I immediately get an on scree error message when trying to print.
    Any thoughts out there?

    Unplug the printer for 15 minutes.  Unplug it from everything.  Don't use My Image Garden.  Use Easy Photo Print EX (came with your printer) or some other program.

  • Elements 11 not allowing Canon Pixma Pro 100 to print

    I just installed and updated a new Canon Pro 100 printer.  I can print from the organizer but not the editor.   I was getting a response of printer not recognized when in editor mode, no errors and pprint this organizer.   It says Photoshop cannot this document.

    Finally figured it out. You have to use the exact margins of what is suggested in the beginning and the image size can't go over that even if there isn't any image/text in it.

  • I am having trouble connecting IPAD1 to wireless any suggestions?

    I am having trouble connecting my IPad1 to Belkin Wireless Router. It was working fine until a couple of days ago. I can use my IMAC okay via wireless. I can see my network on the IPad, but message comes up "unable to join the network XXXX". I have read the Apple recent release to fix this problem...still no luck. Can anyone please help?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
