No printers appear in Printer Setup Utility

While trying to get my MacBook to communicate with a Dell 1710 laser (connected by USB), I eventually resorted to selecting the "Reset Printer System" command in Printer Setup Utility.
This caused all printers to disappear from the Print & Fax control panel, and from Printer Setup Utility.
Reinstalling the Dell printer drivers had no effect.
Reinstalling OSX 10.4 (Archive & Install) had no effect.
I ran Disk Utility and repaired disk permissions, but this had no effect.
All the printer driver folders and files can be seen in Users/Library/Printers, but none show up in Printer Setup Utility.
Can anyone help?

I would suspect a bad connection. Plug the printer into the computer, turn it on and check USB in the System Profiler. There should be some indication that the printer is there.

HP Printer not appearing in Printer Setup Utility LIst

My HP Deskjet 6980 printer used to work fine when I first bought it. Then my laptop stopped bring able to connect to it. I contacted HP and they told me to remove the printer from the list and re-install the latest driver. I did that, and I also reset the printer setup utility preferences, but the printer never comes up. The printer does work. I printed out a few test pages from it while disconnected from the computer. How can I make the printer appear on the Setup utility list?

HP provides this troubleshooting tip.
From what I can determine the printer is an Ethernet printer. I assume you have it connected via an Ethernet cable either to your computer or a network router. You may need to add the printer as a TCP/IP printer using the IP Printer option in Printer Setup Utility. Consult the printer's manual for information on configuring the Ethernet settings. You probably should be able to configure the printer's Ethernet to use DHCP. Your Network preferences in System Preferences should also be configured to use DHCP.

Printer driver for lexmark x6570 does not appear in printer setup utility

Hi
I have just bought a lexmark x6570 wireless printer and have installed the driver on my powerbook, set up the printer (using a usb lead as instructed) but am unable to print anything as the printer driver does not appear in the printer setup utility. I have even tried to move the folder that was created on the desktop to the printer folder in the library folder but still no joy.
Someone help me please!

Printer Setup Utility and trouble with CUPS

Good day! I'm hoping that someone here might help me with a pretty frustrating problem I've run into.
I'm not sure what prompted this, but for some reason, I can't seem to add any printers using the printer setup utility (PSU). I reset the printing system through the PSU, and now, when I try to add a printer, one of three things happen: 1) PSU stops responding, and I have to force quit it, 2) I get the message "error-service-unavailable-error", or 3) the "Add a Printer" window just closes, as though it succeeded, and returns me to an empty PSU screen.
Now, after wrangling with it for a bit, I found that when I went to the CUPS web interface (localhost:631), I couldn't navigate throughout it. That is, localhost:631 brought me to the interface, but I couldn't get to any of the rest of the interface to let me look at printers, etc.
So, I suspected that it was a connectivity problem on port 631. Sure enough, I ran nmap and got "631/tcp closed ipp." I tried opening it on my router and on the firewall, to no avail. So, I mucked around /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and set CUPS to listen on Port 631 (even though it should have already been listening already on localhost:631, according to the .conf file), and voila: nmap yields "631/tcp open ipp"
Too bad that's not my problem, it would seem. Now, all that happens is I try to add a printer, and the dialog closes when I press add, to no effect.
I've tried using the Printer Setup Repair Utility ( http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/26660&mode=feedback ) to check all my permissions and setup, as well as replace the cupsd.conf file, which only renewed the 631 port problem), repairing my permissions, changing permissions on /var/spool/cups to 700, trashing the files in /Library/Printers/, restoring them, restarting cupsd, restoring the cupsd.conf file from the cupsd.conf.default file, most everything I can think of.
And one more symptom: when I try to delete printers using the CUPS web interface, I get a 403 Forbidden message reading "You don't have permission to access the resource on this server." I tried the suggestions on http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/user/view/cs_msg/9184 to no avail.
So in short, I'm hoping that someone has some suggestions, ideas, or solutions? Anything would be great. I've been stuck on this for a couple days, and I'm going to be needing a printer pretty soon now.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Gratefully,
a.

I'm still struggling with this problem: whenever I try to print, the application from which I'm printing freezes. I've attached the error report from one such instance of attempting to print from Preview. Maybe someone could help me make sense of it?

C6180 does not appear in my list of printers in Printer setup utility (mac OS X 10.4.11)

My C6180 was printing slowly so I followed the steps in the forum (unplugging, holding down the buttons, etc. ... Shut down, restart, etc.) Now it doesn't appear in my list of available printers when I try to set up again in the Printer Setup Utility. My software is updated. How to I get it in the list. I've been around in circles and I may have messed up some settings in trying to solve this. I have to print stuff for work. Freaking out a little. Help.

Hello,
Thanks for the post. Murphy's Law, as soon as you really need to print something for work, this happens!! I've pasted a link below that should help you resolve this one. I hope this helps..........GOOD LUCK!

Just in case, below is a link for the drivers should you need to download. There is a Universal Driver that supports MAC OS 10.3/10.4 if you need a quick and dirty......

Printer setup utility- driver not appearing in list

Hi - I have installed a Canon printer driver (latest version as I checked), restarted my new MacBook (with updated OSX) but the driver does not appear in the list when i try to set printer up. Printer is connected to USB. It is a Canon Pixus iP7500. Latest driver is 4.1.9 - I checked.
I think my question is - how do i get the driver to appear in the Utility's list?
Thanks.

For the Canon PIXMA drivers (or PIXUS in Japan), the Print Using menu is meant to automatically change to Canon IJ Printer when it detects the USB connected printer. If it doesn't change, you cannot manually browse to it like you can for other drivers.
Often the cause of the correct driver not being selected is that the software hasn't installed correctly. Following is some steps that I have used myself and offered to others that has resolved this problem.
1. Open Printer Setup Utility, click on Printer Setup Utility and select Reset Printing System.
2. Close the Printer Setup Utility.
3. Go to Library > Printers > Canon and delete the contents of the BJPrinters folder.
4. Go to Library > Receipts and delete the file Canon iPxxxx xxx.pkg
5. Empty the Trash
6. Restart the Mac
7. Install the latest version of the Canon driver (which you have).
8. Once the driver installation is complete, go to Applications > Utilities and open Disk Utility. Run the Repair Disk Permissions option.
9. Open Printer Setup Utility. If the printer is not already displayed, click Add.
10. Select the Default Browser view and select the Canon printer connected via the USB port. The Print Using menu should automatically change to Canon IJ Printer.
11. Click Add to add the printer.
If the Canon IJ Printer doesn't appear automatically then please reply.

Printer Setup Utility lists no printers

Just upgraded to Panther. Printer setup utility shows no printers, but they're in Library folder. And utility can't/won't add them. What's the problem?

Welcome to the discussions.
When you Upgrade to any Operating System usually it will sometimes de activate a Printer you were using.
The reason is you have downloaded a brand new operating system.
When you do this you will often have to Trash what you have previously installed, plus going to your library and deleting everything that is related to your printer.
Restart your computer afterward.
Then you need to boot up in Panther and then put the Printer Disc in and make sure your Printer is plugged in and then Download your Printer from the Disc. After you do that it is a good idea to check your printers web site and make sure you have the latest updates for your printer and operating system.
When it downloads to your Desktop you must drag it to the Printer Folder and then double click the dowload to launch it.
Double clicking it on the desktop will not launch it in the proper folder.
Some printer upgrades will download to the printer utility folder and launch while others will not.
You don't tell what printer and how your hooked up so it;s hard to address your problem without all the detailed information.
The method I explain above I have used and works.
Cheers Don

Blinking Printers in Printer Setup Utility

Hello - Let me start by saying I am no Mac expert at all. I am the network admin for my company but only support two Macs and thus do not have much interaction with them but I am tech savy.
We have one of our Adv department living remote in a different state. Suddenly yesterday, when she went to print, she was given an error that there was no printer selected. Her only option was to install a new printer. This is strange because she has two network printers (one wireless and one by network cable through a small switch) and has Adobe Acrobat 7 so should also have the Adobe Printer available.
I had her go into the Printer Setup Utility through Apple->System Preferances->Printers. There she sees her three printers but they are all blinking on and off. What I mean by that is, the three are there, then gone, then there, then gone. She said they are not graying out but actually disappearing. She is unable to select them to delete them.
We have tried setting up a new printer but it does not detect the printers. I have had her power off both the physical printers to see if some type of network issue was causing the problem but the blinking continues.
I did have her try booting in "Safe Mode" which I understand does some system repair but after that was done and a reboot, the problem persists.
Does anyone have any ideas for this issue. Of course of all days, she needs to get a project printed to PDF by the end of the day for our printer to meet the deadline.
I would be very greatful for any ideas or help!
Thanks,
Daniel

Hello All,
She was able to get the catalog out via an export to PDF option in Quark. Unfortunately the files turn out to be about 25MB per page that way and she had to upload over 600MB via her DSL connection. But it got done.
Now the problem still persists. I have some new info from working on the problem.
We were able to get the blinking to stop by selecting the check box to share the printer from within the Printer Setup Utility. This allowed us to click on the Delete button but we receive an error saying "Server error service unavailable". We are also getting the same error we when try to add a printer.
Doing some searching, I found that that points to the problem being related to the cups printing system in Mac OS X. I did the fix listed in this article twice
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107054
describing how to reset the printing system in OS 10.3 but it did not help.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Daniel

Printer setup utility freezes when I try to add drivers

I have an Epson Stylus Photo RX500 all-in-one printer which worked fine until a few weeks ago. My best guess as to why it stopped working is that I let my hard drive fill up and some data got corrupted/overwritten (I've had numerous problems incuding my System Folder becoming 'unblessed' which necessitated a reinstall).
When I tried to print there were no drivers recognized. If I checked in home>library>printers I could find what appeared to be the driver (Stylus Photo RX500) but opening that would bring up a message it wasn't in my list of printers. Trying to add the printer to the list gave the message that the driver wasn't found. In the Finder the driver was listed as 372KB. In my cloned external HD the same file was listed as 408KB. Copying over the larger file to my internal didn't solve the problem.
I went to the Epson site and found a driver which was only listed for OS10.2 and a driver to Intel Macs (I have a G4 PB). I downloaded the 10.2 driver and installed it (408KB). Now when I open the printer setup utility EPSON USB is listed as an option but when I click on that the utility freezes. I've tried restarting and repairing permissions but still no go.
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu. TIA.

Ohayo gozaimasu,
I saw what was available on the US site, so went to the Epson UK site, where they show one driver for OSX - PowerPC, for the RX500, it's version 1.9b versus the 1.7 on the US site. The driver is a 7.9mb download. Looking at the other English sites around the world, 1.9b seems to be the lastest OSX PPC driver.
The link is http://esupport.epson-europe.com/FileDownload.aspx?lng=en-GB&ID=19449&data=6D58D 013F2B22854B9450E1814C134D338E0C605169D8D398A3275D13F8B5BB5
Perhaps that will work better for you.

Printer Setup Utility not working and autostopping jobs for an HP

I have both an Epson Stylus R200 and an HP Photosmart 2570 series all-in-one. the epson prints fine, but the HP doesn't at all. it keeps stopping the jobs i send to the HP. The HP is also a scanner and i can do scans so i know its not a problem with the physical USB connection.
To attempt to fix this problem, i try to open the Printer Setup Utility. I've tried to open the utility 3 seperate ways. 1) from the menu item "utility" in th e HP printer dock item
2) from "Utilities/PRinter Setup Utility
3) from System Preferences "Printing/Faxing>setup printers"
still the utility appears to be running on my dock, and the menus on the top appear (Edit View Printers Windows Help) simply won't drop down and let me use the Utility.
is my Printer Setup Utility COrrupted? if so, where can i find a replacement download without reinstalling Panther?
i searched the apple downloads to no avail.
restarting now.
any help is appreciated. thanks
G3 minitower 370 MHz Mac OS X (10.3.9) [email protected]

thanks for your repsonse greg, however this is not resolved.
ok, i know ive got the 10.3.9 update installed successfully. in fact, i decided to reinstall OS X completely and update from there. this took much time. i backed up all system files manually and erase and installed OS X. i am having multiple problems still as a result, such as dreamweaver m not booting, but that goes beyond the scope of this help thread.
but, i can finally open the Printer Setup Utility. i did not find my old R200 drivers so I reinstalled the R200 driver. I also ran the HP all-in-one software. now, whats left to do is add these two printers in the utility.
When i select from the add printer dialogue, "EPSON USB" it find the R200 driver, then i try to select "add" and it gives me this error: "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printers successful-ok-conflicting-attributes"
when attempting to add the HP all in one to the utility, it won't even find the HP driver. Before i re-installed the HP all-in-one software, it had found it but gave me the exact same error as above. also in the add new printer dialogue the menu item that should say "USB" is just blank, and when i select what should say "usb" anyway, it.
i deleted two files in the Library/Preferences/ folder that started with com.apple.print they appeared to be default configuration files. after rebooting the utility, the same problem persists.
any other suggestions? now i can't print at ALL.

Setting up wireless printer in printer setup utility

i have a Brother MFC 5100 USB inkjet printer. when i have it connected by USB cable to my ibook it works perfectly. i can choose the Brother printer and print driver in the chooser.
i am trying to set up my motorola print server. i know the computer sees the print server. when i go to the printer setup utility, it only gives me the options to set up either laserwriter printers or AdobePS printing.
how do i use the printer setup utility to set up a non-laserwriter, non-AdobePS printer? how do i get the utility to "see" whatever it needs to see to set up my Brother printer?
ultimately, what i need to do is get the chooser to see my Brother printer wirelessly, as it does perfectly when connected by USB cable.
thanks,
Ian

Assuming that Motorola server is meant to work with Macs, there are basically two types of print server.
The simpler type appears to client computers as though it were a printer, and for that you will need drivers for either the server itself, or some printer it can emulate. If it can and is set to emulate any PostScript printer then normally, both LaserWriter and AdobePS should drive it…
More sophisticated servers appear to computer as… uh… sophisticated servers with queues and administration facilities and for that, you would need a cmpatible client utility, probably but not necessarily from Motorola.
What model is this, please? There should be someone along shortly who'll recognize it and deal with the specifics…

Printer Setup Utility always crashes- and am getting weird printer behavior

Just installed 10.5 on a fresh internal drive- machine is G5 2X2- settings imported from a 10.4 installation on another drive. Printer is a Brother HL-5170DN
If I try to print from any app, the app doesn't crash, as has been reported by others, but the printer behavior is strange. I added the printer from the Print and Fax control pane, which saw the printer and appeared to be happy. But when I try to print any test document, the printer starts printing an error message on every sheet in its tray, literally running through the whole stack and then complaining it's out of paper, even though the document to be printed was only one page. Have never seen anything like that. The error message printed on paper is: ERROR NAME; undefined COMMAND; y OPERAND STACK;
Cannot launch Printer Setup Utility- always crashes. Have tried reseting printer system and rebooting, but no luck. It seems to be complaining that a file called "_CPLPPDGetFileInfo" is missing. The error log when I try to launch Printer Setup Utility is:

Thanks for the helpful info. I had upgraded to Leopard using Archive & Install and had an alias to the Printer Setup Utility from Tiger, which I kept trying to use not realizing that this now pointed to the old version in the Previous Systems folder.
Now I've deleted the whole thing and will remember to use the System Preference panel to configure my printers.

Epson C88 and Printer Setup Utility

Trying to add Epson c88 to eMac system 10.3.9/800/512. Repaired permissions, installed drivers from included CD, restarted, repaired permissions. c88 does not show in Printer Setup Utility, though info's being exchanged between printer and eMac since Epson Printer Utiity recognizes the c88 and can test ink levels, head alignment, etc. No printer (not even an old c80) shows up in the printer list, so no printer can be added.
Went to Epson web site, downloaded another version of the drivers and installed same; same result - nada. Nothing shows up in the Printer Setup Utility. All cables are in working order. Weird, no?
Checked w/ Epson and they're pretty sure since Epson Printer Utility can be accessed, the problem's w/ the Printer Setup Utility; they suggested I call Apple.
Called Apple but $49.95 to try and find the problem (half the cost of the printer?) seemed untenable.
Can anyone offer insight?

Okay mrthuse,
I have a Epson C86, and this is the procedure I would use. I think I've changed the references to the C86, but if not, I believe the procedure for the C88 would be basically the same.
* Download the most current driver from Epson: Printer Driver v2.5bA.
* Before moving the folder & files listed below, to a "Temporary Epson Trash
Folder", open "Printer Setup Utility" and delete the C88.
* "Quit' "Printer Setup Utility"
* Move the files (Posted in Capitals) to the "Temporary Epson Trash Folder" on the Desktop

EPSON PRINTER UTILITY (Alias)
HD > Users > Your Home > Library > Preferences >

COM.APPLE.PRINT.PRINTERPROXY.INTERNAL_MODEM.PLIST
COM.APPLE.PRINT.PRINTINGPREFS.PLIST
HD > Library > Printers >
EPSON (Folder) Only move this folder if you have no other
Epson products
I also had a "OS X booklet.pdf" (Epson) that I had saved in my "Documents" folder. You will get a new one. After the installation, I replaced it. You may not have saved your original one. It's no big deal, there's really not much in it, In fact I don't remember ever opening it, before today!
* Quit ALL running Applications
* "Repair Permissions" using "Disk Utility" in the "Utilities" folder
* Dig out your Epson C88 "Start Here" instruction quick sheet, for reference
* Unplug the USB cable from the Mac & then from the C88
* Re-attach the USB cable to the C88 & then from the Mac
* Turn on your C88
* Double click on: "epson11510.sea.hqx" to unzip
* Double click on: "epson11510.sea" to expand
* Follow the prompts & instructions
* When the "Vise" installer opens in a window, double click it to start the install
* When the installation is complete, turn off the printer & restart your Mac.
* "Repair Permisions" again
* Turn on the C88
* Open "Printer Setup Utility"
* "You have no printers available" will appear. Click "Add"
* Select "Epson USB" in the contextual menu
* Click on "Stylus C88" to highlight
* Add "Page Setup:" select "All", from the contextual menu
* Click "Add"
* Quit "Printer Setup Utility"
The images below, that are left on the "Desktop", can be trashed, unless you prefer to keep the installer.

Need help to find printer setup utility

I recently bought my first Mac and have slowly been adding to it over the last couple of weeks. Today I added a new printer that I wish to connect wirelessly. The printer is a Brother MFC-3360. I installed the software that came with the printer and had the printer connected directly to the Mac Book. It printed just fine.
I then disconnected the USB cable and plugged it into the Extreme Base station. It failed to print. According to the Extreme manual, I need to open printer setup utility, located in the utilities folder in the applications folder. Then from there I need to add the printer.
The problem is, I have no printer setup utility. Is there another place where it might be located?
Any other ideas will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Found problem. Went to Sys prefs -> Printers and Fax -> removed my printer and re-installed. Works like a charm.

Why doesn't the HP printer show up in the printer setup utility?

Can't understand why the HP2100 TN laserjet printer that is networked(ethernet) via a Snow basestation does not automatically show up in my list of printers. I also downloaded HP's drivers for it.
My boyfriend's Powerbook running 10.3 is able to automatically see it, and it showed up as "shared" on my computer when his laptop is up and running. I tried Appletalk etc. He got it running using IP printing and having the IP address, but he told me it should have just showed up.
I'm new to the Mac so I don't understand this. According to the config page he printed Appletalk is active on the printer its selected on my networking page.
Any help apprciated.
