PIXMA Pro 10 shows 2 printer queues after installation

I have just installed my newly bought PIXMA Pro 10 printer.
I installed USB direct print mode first, and then I also installed the wireless print option. Now I see 2 printer queues with similar names .. "Canon Pro 10 series", and "Canon Pro 10 series 2".
While I am only using the wireless option now, it seems only the 2nd queue is selectable, while the first one has a grey-round symbol preceeding it, it somehow also says off line.
Does the first queue represents the USB linkage and is offline while the 2nd queue represents wireless connection is workable? Or was it an installation error?

"Does the first queue represents the USB linkage and is offline while the 2nd queue represents wireless connection is workable? Or was it an installation error?"
Yes and yes! It won't hurt but you should decide which you want to use and stick with it.

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.

Why does printer not show in Printer Folder after installation?

     Printer is the original OJ 6500 E709n operating with Windows 7 64-bit.
     Printer had been working well wireless, but began to not work with wireless.
     Reinstalled driver software, and everything installs OK without error. Printer test page prints OK.
     Installation software says that installation was successful, and I click FINISH to end.
     But there is no OJ6500 icon in the Printer folder. There used to be one.
     When I install for use with USB, a printer icon appears like normal.
     What needs to be done to be able to use this printer wireless?
Thanks!

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!

Print jobs won't automatically drop from the print queue after printing

I just bought an Envy 7640. When printing multiple documents, the first print job hangs in the queue after it prints, which prevents subsequent jobs from printing. The first job continues to show a status of Printing after it prints the job. I have to manually go into the queue and cancel the finished job before the next job in the queue will print. Having to clear the queue manually each time a print job finishes is not an acceptable fix to the problem. How can I get the printer to automatically delete the print job after it prints like it's supposed to do?

Thank you for your reply. The steps that you sent are for print jobs that you cannot delete from the queue. I also found those instructions earlier, however, it doesn't apply to the problem I'm having with my printer. I don't have a problem deleting print jobs from the queue. As my previous post stated, when I print multiple documents, the first document prints but it stays in the queue with a status of Printing. Because it stays in the queue with the Printing status, it prevents the second and subsequent documents from printing. My problem is that I have to go to the queue after every single job prints and delete it from the queue to allow the next document to print. It's ridiculous to have to delete every job from the queue after it prints. The printer should automatically delete the job after it prints it, and then print the next job in the queue. How can I make the printer delete a job automatically after it prints it?? Can you please give me a resolution to this problem? Thank you.

Launching Premiere Pro CS6 Family Trial After Installation

I downloaded the CS6 Family Trial version onto my computer and installed it. After installation, no desktop icon showed up, it did not appear in my program list, did not automatically launch...etc. I found ti in my Documents and Settings folder, but found no way to launch the program. only the following folders:

Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server clients lose remote printer queues after logoff

There are similar issues to this already on the forums but not precisely like this as far as I can tell, and I have tried all the fixes mentioned in those other threads.
Windows 2008R2 terminal server connecting to a 2008R2 print server. A script maps a connection to the print server on login. Users can browse the print server, connect to print queues to add them, and the queues work OK at first. As soon as they logoff/login
again, the queues still appear in their list of printers but cannot be selected for printing ('Print' button is greyed out).
Domain administrator users can print OK always; this is only affecting regular-user accounts, so it is probably a security/permissions issue. Print queues configured on the terminal server itself are OK, this only affects the queues on the
print server.
No errors are generated in the Event Logs. No failures seen for the print spooler or anything else.
I have added Everyone with Full Control to C:\windows\system32\spool on the terminal server. Tried giving full permissions to all in the printer properties. Cleaned out all registry keys in Client Side Rendering Print Provider as mentioned in some other
threads. In group policy, client printer redirection and LPT port redirection is allowed, use Easy Print driver first, and the print server is in the Intranet zone for low security. The issue happens for all print queues on the print server with a variety
of drivers so I don't think it is driver-related.

A bad GPO being applied ??
If you isolate a user, remove all GPO (even loopback's one), connect manually to a printqueue to make him install's one. Logoff and reconnect and check again if the printqueue work good. The only right that could block you is the driver's installation, but
I really sure that you don't have that issue (as it would be logged anyway)
The admin. account often have less GPO that apply to him.

Server Admin doesn't show Print Queue status

When I look at my print queues (all 17) under Server Admin, it shows queue name, # of jobs, shared via (IPP & SMB), and printer kind (HP LJ 1022n and HP LJ P2015). It has a column for status, but this is always 100% empty/blank. Also, if I go to the Jobs tab, then I can pick "Jobs on Queue" for all the queues, but the line below for "Queue Status" is again always blank.
Is there something I can do to get this info to show up in Server Admin? I know that CUPS knows the printer status, as I can go to localhost:631 and see the status in the Printers list and the Jobs list.
It isn't life threatening. It is just annoying to have to go to the web page when Server Admin -almost- gets me everything I need to diagnose a teacher's printing problem remotely.

Hi Keith
You could always consult the Print Service logs. If you set the logging levels to Debug or Debug2 you should get everything. You have to be a bit careful with this as the log can get quite large. Other than that I don’t know of anything that is available out of the box.
There may be others that can suggest a 3rd party solution that gives you the appropriate feedback you are looking for. Opening port 631 should not be that much of risk I would have thought?

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:

Pixma Pro-10 prints first print slow

Hello everyone,
I'm looking for some help with my Pixma pro-10 and I'd be eternally grateful if anyone could solve my problem.
I've had the printer for just under a year and in the past 3 months the issue has started happening more often.
The printer intermittently prints slow, and it seems to happen when I change paper sizes. Lets say we're printing multiple copies of the same print, the first one will always print slow, then consecutive versions always print at normal speed.
My set up is MacBook Air 2GHZ 8GB RAM running latest version of Yosemite 10.0.2
I have tried:
Reinstalling printer driver by resetting printing system in system prefs.
Reinstalled canon print studio pro.
Changed USB cables
We have two macs and its the same on both macs.
It happen's when we print PDF's from preview so we're thinking its not specific to canon print studio pro.
We genuinely only ever use canon inks.
I have contacted Canon and they suggested sending it away for repair which is an option but I want to exhaust every avenue before I do that. It just seems like a software issue somewhere and it making me tear my hair out, haha.
Thank you so much for any help anyone is willing to give.
Regards,
Mark

It is possibile the printer is faulty. No doubt. You know, anything made by the hand of man...............
But you probably have the exact same software, drivers, on either and each machine. I still think I would go there first. It is going to be a pain to mess with getting the printer to a service person if it truly is the culprit. You need to be sure.

Pixma Pro 100 printing setup error

I'm new to printing, I just got my Pixma Pro and so far have had terrible results. 1/10 times I get beautiful prints, the rest are terrible, washed out and like they have a grey film on them. I think its either a colour management or paper management issue. I'm trying to use 8.5 x 11 " Canon Pixma Photo Paper with Matte finish. I'm printing with Photoshop. I have the same problem whether I click on Photoshop handle colour or Printer handle colour, but the 1/10 nice prints were acheived manually setting the paper to "glossy" under the print settings menu in Photoshop CS6 rather than selecting Matte which is what the obvious choice is.
When I chose Photoshop handles colour management I get the same grey prints no matter what Printer Profile I select. Though it seems most logical to chose Matte Canon Pro - 100 <LU> 3 Photopaper because thats what I'm using, again the 1/10 nice prints were acheived selecting Photopaper Pro 3 <PT> Platinum.
I don't understand how any of this works. The picture I am trying to print is here, nice blues and greens. http://www.flickr.com/photos/27816471@N06/9076033417/in/set-72157634198994950 it just looks grey and washed out when I print, sort of like the printer is 1/2 out of ink but it says its not. Blacks and greys are good.
what do I do? I know its operator error but I can't re-produce any of the environment to get decent prints from this so i'm considering junking or returning. really dissapointed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is very difficult to determine which side of the matte paper is the printing side.
Before you decide you have printer/printing problem get some glossy photo paper and try with that.

Pixma Pro-100 Printer

Can any one please advise if they have had difficulty getting colour cast free B&W prints from the Pro-100 when printing an image file that has been converted to B&W using Photoshop CS5 even when using Canon paper (Paper Plus Glossy II) and the correct profile.
I even have tried printing the image after Gray Scale conversion in Photoshop (output for printing as an sRGB image) which removes all colour information from the file and I still got a sepia toned print.
Even with colour prints I noticed that at default settings the prints were slightly warmer than they should have been in the white areas of the image.
I have tried printing with Photoshop managing the colours and the printer colour management turned off and with the printer managing the colours with the B&w box ticked both from Photoshop and using the Canon Studio Print Pro software supplied with the machine.
One reviewer on Amazon states that he found it impossible to get a tone free B&W image even after trying all the tweaks to the machine that a Canon tech of ten years experience could suggest.
I realize that it is possible to mostly correct for the colour cast using the colour management sliders in the printer driver but that of course negates the objective of printing using the correct profiles and the settings may have to be changed for every paper type.

Thank you for the reply to my enquiry.
I have corresponded with Red River Paper in Texas on this issue as they were one of two professional the reviewers of the Pro-100. For their tests they printed on Red River paper using their profiles and Canon ink. They report that no perceptable colour hue appeared in the trials they made when printing black and white prints with the printer's colour management set to neutral. Rereading their review of the Pro-100 it is evident that they probably used a colour image and let the printer software convert it to B&W.
The observation made by one of two professional reviewers of the printer that I have read so far is that the use of matte photopaper for this printer has generally been less satisfactory than for gloss or lustre in their experience and that art papers are pretty much out of contention as shadow detail suffers amongst other things. Red River paper however didn't report problems using a range of their papers and profiles.
Are you suggesting using a B&W image generated in camera by the camera's software from the RGB colour output of the sensor as the image source for a B&W print or are you suggesting using a colour image and letting the printer software convert it. Whilst such methods might produce a more tone free result (if say a Canon camera was used to generate the image as a jpeg) this is definitely not the choice a serious amature or professional photographer would normally make as the options for enhancement of the image during the conversion process with Photoshop are the main artistic reasons for choosing a B&W image over a colour one in the first instance.
As I explained in my previous post one of the B&W images I trialed extensively had been Gray Scale converted using Photoshop CS5 prior to output as an RGB file for printing selecting the printer to mamge the colours as well as printing it as a Gray Scale dot gain 25% file (using Photoshop to manage the colours). To my understanding In both cases the image should have no colour information present in it at all only shades of gray, however the prints were still noticably sepia toned.
Also in my earlier post I raised the issue of a noticable warm cast to the normally white areas of a colour image when printing on Canon Paper Plus Glossy II using the correct media settings and profile for that paper.To remove it required a colour management setting of -5 Magenta and -10 yellow. I would have thought that the printer should be accurate for whites provided my monitor is calibrated as well which it is.
I seems strange to me that you would recommend the purchase of the Pro-10 printer to get colour cast free B&W images as Canon designers seem to have gone to the trouble of using additional grey inks in the place of primary colours in this their latest model of their range of dye based printers. In fact I recall during their release to the market that a Canon representative made the comment that he could see very little advantage now to choosing pigment over dye ink printers now that the Canon Chromalife 100 ink system had been perfected.
Please can you advise whether you have actually tested the Pro-100 printer and noticed this problem with B&W images as I'm really keen to get to baottom of this problem.

Acrobat Pro 8 Print queue error, but pdf is created fine...

I'm running xp pro, and acrobat pro 8, every time I try to print a pdf, I get an error with the print queue although it still makes a pdf every time! I've tried the repair tool in acrobat and also uninstall/reinstall but I get the same deal every time.
Its more an annoyance than anything as I still get the pdf files but I'm thinking something must be wrong to throw up an error every single time!
Any help would be good :)

Alternatively, look at using digital signatures and the security
policies. This method ensures that only the person with the matching
certificate can open the file and have specific options ...
It would involve swapping digital ID files but once set-up, it's very
powerful ... just uses Acrobat 8 and even Reader ..
