OS X 10.5.6 update - now can't print text!

Once I downloaded OS X 10.5.6 my Canon PIXMA IP4200 will not print any text from any applcaition, only images. Tried deleting printer and re-installing, and no driver update available from Canon.

Open System Preferences > Print & Fax. Mouse your mouse over the Printers column, hold down the Control key and click your mouse. Click on Reset printing system.
Restart your Mac and then add the printer queue again. See if this helps...

  • Installed OS update now can't print from Canon MF4500 series

    Have just updated to 10.8.5 and triend to install new printer drivers for Canon MF4580dn printer but drivers aren't recognised and I cannot print

    Not quite sure what you mean by the drivers aren't recognised but if you mean the MF4500 is not listed in the Add Printer window, then this can happen sometimes and often the simple solution is to restart the Mac.
    If this is not what you mean then can you provide more information please.

  • Running Mavericks OS on MacBookPro...had some hard crashes past 24 hours...now can't print in Office or Firefox.  Both crash during print dialog - changing printer.  Printed fine before.   Ideas?

    Running Mavericks OS on MacBookPro...had some hard crashes past 24 hours...forced reboots....now can't print anything from Office or Firefox.  Both crash during print dialog - changing printer causes instand crash.  My system printed fine before the crashes yesterday.  I can print from the Stickies app and safari printed fine.  I did a full Shutdown/restart and that didn't work.  Ideas on how to get PPT files to print again or print from firefox??

  • I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    If you upgraded and were using a version of Acrobat Reader that was legacy, that is PPC compatible, then you will have to upgrade to a version compatible with Lion as Lion no longer has Rosetta to interface with the legacy software.
    I know that Acrobat, full version, 10 works with Lion...use it myself.

  • Upgraded to Yosemite and now can't print wirelessly

    Upgraded my 1yr old Mac Pro to Yosemite and now can't print wirelessly to my Epson XP-405 through my wireless home hub! I've tried re-installing new printer drivers etc, throwing away preferences etc... these sometimes work for a single print then goes back to "Printer can't be found". My older iMac doesn't seem to have this problem (yet - fingers crossed!) and prints ok on exactly the same wireless network.
    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

    If you have the printers IP address open Terminal (Applications/Utilities) and at the prompt type: ping {printerIP}. You will get a reply or failure.

  • Can't print text documents

    For a little over a week I have been unable to print text documents from either of my printers (Lexmark Z-23 and HP PSC 1410). I had noticed that the sharpness of text had been declining-but I was in denial, sort of. Now, when printing text documents from the computer, the printout is garbled, streaked, and unreadable. Sometimes the first half of printed document will be okay but the second half will be all garbled and streaked.
    I have tried to print from Pages, Appleworks, and TextEdit. No success in any of them. I have converted a page of my word processing document to pdf format, but it does not print out properly in pdf, either.
    Here's the weird part: the HP will produce good copies (copy function) I am able to print out beautiful iCal (calendar) pages; some web-based information (like maps with directions) comes out great; and even "screen-shots" (or pictures) of text documents are fine; I just can't print text-based documents.
    So far, I have cleaned and calibrated the printers; they have enough ink. I have uninstalled then reinstalled the software and drivers.
    Help?

    my guess is, it's not your printers that are the
    problem but maybe a font problem.
    Have you done anything with fonts lately?
    Why, yes.
    Just today, in FontBook I validated fonts and
    resolved duplicates, whatever that means. I also
    "turned off" a bunch of fonts that I never use. Then
    I restarted, reset PRAM, and repaired permissions in
    Disk Utility.
    I still have the problem.
    What other kinds of things can you do with fonts?
    ~PM, wife of GM
    Glenn-- Here is a great article written by a fellow apple forum frequenter:
    http://www.jklstudios.com/misc/osxfonts.html
    Maybe you can read it or weed thru it and make sure you haven't turned off any necessary fonts that you don't use but the system finds necessary. Especially "TextEdit" uses I think exclusively system fonts and if you've turned them off... It's just good to know which fonts are for what before you disable certain ones.
    I believe fonts can definitely cause these sorts of problems, especially if you've disabled system fonts.

    how can i print text messages from my htc amaze to my hp deskjet 3050A

    Hi,
    I believe the phone uses Android OS, v2.3.4 (Gingerbread) therefore you can use one of these applications:

  • Updated iPad to iOS 7 and now can't print to printer?

    iPad connected with printer prior to updating to iOS 7, now can't find it.  Turned printer on/off, moved closer to printer and tried again.  Help!?!

    Hey KTonn,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with AirPrint. The following article provides relevant troubleshooting steps:
    AirPrint Basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found"
    Verify that the printer:
    1. Has power and is turned on. If it has power, turn the printer off and then on again to see if that resolves the issue.
    2. Is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the iOS device.
    3. Has the latest firmware version installed.
    4. Has paper with enough ink or toner installed.
    5. Is free of any errors displayed on the printer's control panel.
    If necessary, consult the printer documentation or contact the printer vendor for help with the above steps.
    Notes:
    - AirPrint printers connected to the USB port of the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsules are not supported with AirPrint.
    - Some Wi-Fi AirPrint printers can take several minutes to join a Wi-Fi network after being turned on. Ensure that the AirPrint printer is connected to the Wi-Fi network before attempting to print.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Changed printers, now can't print wireless from laptop

    Hi. I changed to a HP printer from an Epson. Now I can't print wirelessly from my laptop through my Airport Express. I get a message that the printer is offline.
    Went to the HP site & got latest drivers. And there was an Apple update for the HP. I can print when the laptop is connected to the printer by the USB cable.
    When I first set up the AP Express 2 years ago, I was able to print wirelessly without any problems.
    any ideas?
    Thanks

    Got it fixed. Went to the HP site again & they had info for OS10.5 that worked.

  • Memory died, replaced but now can't print with apple apps

    User installable memory died, kernel failures, finally froze, replaced, all better but had to use Diskwarrior to clean up mess on hard drive. Now everything works BUT I can't print from Apple apps. MSOffice updated and prints, Safari, appleworks etc. don't all crash when printing. Cleaned out Printing PPD's, printer defs in Library, reinstalled printers from scratch, disk repair, etc. Even rezapped PRAM again. No luck.
    Seems like this is tied to an apple OS function I haven't found yet.
    Anybody got any ideas before I reinstall the OS?
    thanks

    Thanks Greg,
    Well, bottom line, had to nuke the HD and reinstall the entire system. Everything is fine. Seems the archive and install couldn't deal with the degree of disk confusion caused from the declining memory prior to failure.
    thanks

  • Upgraded to 10.5.8 now can not print to any network printer.

    The only way I can print is through a shared printer on another Mac. All the printers I used to print to on the network now will not leave the mac print queue. I have reset the printers. Deleted and created new printers and I still can't print. Print job hits queue and just stops. If I try to resume it says empty print file. On the other hand if I go through another Mac's shared printer I can print to any printer set up on that Mac that is shared.

    If this printer is able to function when connected directly to the Mac, it should work properly when connecting to it using DAVE. Have you tried connecting it directly to your Mac since upgrading to Mac OS X v10.5.8?
    Please contact me directly so that I can help resolve this problem. I don't have the specific printer in question, but I'm sure that we can find a resolution.
