Print on canon pixma iP4600

Hello.
I have the new OX X Yosemite system and Canon Pixma iP 4600 printer. Since I got the Yosemite system I can't print anymore.
What could be the problem?
Jóhann

Apple has the latest driver for the iP4600, so removing the printer and adding it again should trigger an update to obtain the latest driver. If not, then as John has suggested removing the printer folder will help. However as you have a Canon rather than an Epson then the folder for your printer is located in /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinters. If you trash the contents of this folder (make sure you remove the iP4600 from Printers & Scanners first) and then restart your Mac, when you log back in and try to add the iP4600 via Printers & Scanners, you should get a prompt stating that the driver is available from Apple and do you want to download and install. Agree to this and before long you should be printing again.

The printer and Adobe elements were brand new. The printer works with
other programs. It never worked.

Have you ruled out an issue with the driver for the printer? It is possible that the material on the installation disk was developed prior to PSEv.12. I understand that everything is new, but who knows what the date of production is. You can check on Canon's web site for driver update.

Frustrated trying to print from Canon Pixma 9500

Does anyone have any tips for printing from Canon Pixma 9500?
I profiled the screen, printer and paper using colormunki.
Trying to print from photoshop. Frustrated that the printer interface isn't as described in many online forums (for example, it seems impossible to turn off colour management).
Getting strange blue borders around everything when using the paper profiles via colormunki.
Does anyone have any good tips?
.......help.....!

I used colormunki to calibrate my screen, printer and to make a paper profile.
Read one site that suggested the strange blue borders are related to V4 vs V2 paper profiles...whatever that means. Apparently it is an issue printing from photoshop.

Can iPad 2 3G wifi print to canon pixma ip 100

Can iPad 2 3G wifi print to canon pixma ip 100

Khaled-
The iPad only prints by WiFi, so your 3G is not involved. There must be a WiFi path between the iPad and the printer.
I do not believe your Canon printer is compatible with AirPrint, so you will need an alternative way to print. Look in the iTunes store for Canon Apps that can print to your printer. There are other Apps such as Print n Share that should work for you.
Another way is to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi. Printopia is a Macintosh program that can do this. For a free alternative, search the web for AirPrint Activator. Versions are available for both Mac and Windows.

New Canon Pixma ip4600 won't show on my Airport Express printer list

Hi,
I've just had to replace my old Pixma ip4000 printer with a new ip4600 printer. The printer has set-up on my iMac and Macbook but it does not show in Airport Utility in the printers section. I've tried unplugging the printer from the USB and unplugging the AE but whichever combination I try it does no good. All ok on the usb direct to the computer.
I've followed many of the support articles to no avail. Can somebody help please? Until the printer shows on the AE I'm unable to print wirelessly.
Regards,
Colin Ashworth

Hi Colin,
As you have said in your post, until you can get the Express to recognise the iP4600 as being connected via USB, you will not be able to add the printer. And note that you cannot use the More Printers > Canon IJ Network facility - this is for Canon's that are connected via Ethernet or wireless to the network.
Are you using the same USB cable to connect the iP4600 to the Express as you are for connecting directly to the Mac's USB? If not, then try another USB cable.
If you are using the same cable, then has the Express got a reset button? I know the Extreme's do and I'm thinking that possibly the Express is still expecting the iP4000 on the USB. If there is no button then you could a factory reset via the Airport utility. You could also check if there are any updates for the Express.

How to print from Canon pixma mg5320 work with OS X 10.7.5

I got a PIXMA MG5320 (because my PIXMA MG6120 would not print from my phone or iPad). But now I am reading the fine print and am concerned by the warnings that it will not work with my MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.5
I have read that Canon has 'solutions' that can be downloaded, but I still have concerns that the printer's wireless functions will not work properly.
I do NOT want a printer that does not work properly with my laptop. Is there a different Canon (photo) printer that DOES work with a OS X 10.7.5 or higher operating system?
Thanks

Hello Lori.
The MG5320 is compatible with OS 10.7.5. You will have the same printing and scanning options on this OS that you would on any other OS that the printer is compatible with.
If you happened to experience any errors or difficulties, please let us know and we will be happy to assist you.

Printing to Canon Pixma MP170 on Airport Express from Windows XP

I got a Canon MP170 basically for free with the rebates.
Connected to my Airport Express, installed the drivers on my PowerMac and I can print just fine (I am aware that the scanner will only work when connected directly - which also works fine).
Now I installed the drivers on Windows XP, then added a new printer, selected the Standard TCP/IP port where I had my other printer on the Aiport Express before and changed the printer driver to the Canon MP170. Could not print.
Deleted the port (only managed after deleting the printer(s) defined with it and restarting Windows ...) and created the port from scratch - Standard TCP/IP port, IP address of my Airport Express, device type Generic Network Card, raw port 9100. Won't print.
Anybody managed to get this going?
Thanks in advance and Best Regards,
alex

Printing with canon pixma 9500 II

I have just installed a Pixma Pro 9500II printer to work with Aperture 3 - particularly in monochrome.
I can print, but I am not sure if I am using the menus correctly. I am printing on Ilford papers - and think I have installed, and am using the profile OK - but the printer only seems tp be consuming the grey ink, lraving the two blacks untouched.
My question is whether anyone knows on any good online user groups - or even bertter, good books on this subject.
Grateful for any help from the community.

It may be that your inks are old or gummed up. Open the top so you have access to the ink carraige. Unclip the reluctant inks and look at the window on one side. Full tanks will look full, partial ones will look as though the silver, horizontal bar (with a circle showing ink) has receded. You might replace that cartrige.
If gummed up, you need to remove all the ink cartiriges. Then on the right hand side of the carriage is a lever, pull it up from the front (gently). Jiggle it several times to clear any stuff. Replace the lever. Replace the inks. Print an ink test on scrap paper by pushing the second button two times. Or through the computer run a test page. Each ink prints out a rectangle of its color ... easy to tell if any are gummed up. Actually, you might want to do this first to see if gumming is the problem....
Now, for you a question: any idea why I cannot set the margins I want in Aperture 3 and not have the 9500 over ride them.

Problems printing with Canon Pixma ip 2600

I'm having a strange printing issue with my newly installed Canon printer. If I print from Mail or Print Explosion, the document comes out very pale (black is light gray, red is pale pink, etc.) It almost looks like I was printing in grayscale, altho colors do print out. When I print from Word or Excel, the documents look fine. Has anyone got a solution for this? The tech support at Canon has no idea what may be the problem.
I had a similar problem with another Canon printer; one Excel workbook would always print pale. All the others were fine.
Thanks!

Wifi network printing using Canon Pixma MP600R

Hi, we've just bought the MP600R printer to use as a wifi network printer for three macs. An emac, an ibook and a macbook. All the computers are running different versions of the Mac OS from 10.3 through to Leopard (housekeeping!)
Anyway we've read all the troubles with Leopard so are prepared for the problems but the other probem we've encountered is that the first computer connected perfectly well (it has a 10 x 4 operating system) but since then none of the others will communicate with the printer.
Is this something to do with registering mac address with the printer? Has anyone set up more than one mac attached to the MP600R before? Any suggestions gratefully received. Life is too short to be this puzzled. best Livia

Hello Livia,
I have an MP600R that is being connected to wirelessly via 10.4, 10.5 and XP.
The first step with the configuration is choosing the wireless network the MP600R will connect to. The second step is setting the ip address; either static - which means you enter the numbers, or dynamic -which means the wireless router sets the address. Both of these functions have to be done when the printer is connected to the computers USB port.
Once the printer is connected to the wireless network, then on the Mac's you use the More Printers > Canon IJ Network setting to find the printer and print to it. When you browse the printer will be displayed with its MAC address in brackets.
For those that are not able to connect to the printer, you may find that they are using different ip address to the Tiger Mac and MP600R. Check your network settings on all machines to ensure they are using the same address subnet (typically the first three sets of numbers in the address).
If the addresses are on the same subnet, then there may be something wrong with the driver software. When you go to add the printer, do you see the MP600R after selecting More Printers > Canon IJ Network?

Red Color Cast when printing with Canon Pixma Pro 9000

My printer is giving me a horrible red color cast after the latest software update. The color cast can also be seen in Preview and in the print window. No changes to drivers have been made. Printer worked fine before the update.
Has anyone else found this problem and offered a solution?

You may find it helpful.
Thanks, but if you look in the archives of the Apple ColorSync Users List, you'll find thousands of posts from his Mac dating back to the beginning of the List.
The principle is that you configure your device colour spaces to the largest gamut of which they are capable, calibrate them to a stable condition, characterise that condition in a measured test chart, and build ICC device profiles for those characterisations in your ICC profiling package of choice.
You then capture and correct colour with correct colour previews, resulting in normalised exposures in an ideal CIE colour space. With you normalised exposures, you convert into output condition 1, output condition 2, output condition n which is what repurposing is about.
But you do no apply a gamma change on top of the colour managed rendering. That is incorrect by definition. You apply your gamma change as part of the colour correction in order to get your normalised exposure.
If you imagine this in a prepress process, then you can forget the concept of determinate rendering which is the bedrock of the ICC architecture. If you as photographer do a gamma correction on top of your presentation print or proof print, then you can claim that you have a presentation print, but you cannot contractually claim that you have a proof print as your proof print is a colour correction on top of the colour management system. If Apple Aperture allows the user access to colour correction on top of colour management, then that is a bug in the application. Sorry ...

How can I get two-sided print on Canon Pixma IP3000 with Snow Leopard?

I've just upgraded to Snow Leopard and find that duplex printing is no longer available. How do I get it back?

You should have a menu item called Duplex Printing and Margin. This is part of the v10.26 driver that is provided via Software Update.
This was the same menu item that was available with the v4.8.3 driver that was included with OS X 10.5. If you were not using this menu previously with 10.5 then maybe you were using the iP3000 Gutenprint driver?

Unable to print with my Canon PIXMA IP 4700 and JetDirect network appliance

After many tries I decided to post my question.
I have a Canon PIXMA IP 4700 connected to the network with a Jetdirect 175X box. So I tried to add a new printer with a "HP Jetdirect Socket" port. I have previously installed the driver from the official website. The test page is staying on the spooler.
I also tried with LPD port (supported by the Jetdirect box) and IPP but nothing is working.
When the printer is directly connected with USB, it's working fine. Printing from my others Windows computers is working fine too since many months.
Thank your for your help.

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Your problem is being caused by the Canon driver. It cannot be used when the printer is connected to the USB port of a 3rd party print server, or if shared by Windows.
The solution is to use a driver like Gutenprint or PrintFab. Gutenprint is preferred because it is free (it ships with OS X) however the iP4700 is not listed as a supported model. The iP4600 is listed so you could try selecting this model in the Print Using menu (shown as Canon PIXMA iP4600 - Gutenprint v5.2.3). If the iP4600 Gutenprint driver does not work that well then you could look at using [PrintFab|http://www.printfab.net] which does support the iP4700. It costs €49 but there is a 30 day trial so at least you can try it before committing to buying.
Another option would be to use a Airport device, like the Express, instead of the Jetdirect print server. With the printer connected to its USB port you can then use the Canon iP4700 driver on the Mac.
