Printer in System Profiler, Not in Printer List?

I ran into an issue after rearranging my office earlier in the week and I was hoping that you guys would be able to help me out.
I disconnected my Canon ip4300 (connected via USB) from my iMac in order to move it and once it was reconnected I could no longer print to it. I initially attempted to connect it to a hub along with my scanner however once it was connected I attempted to print a test page and it kept popping an error saying that the printer was not ready. I thought the issue was with the hub however I experienced the same issue when I tried to attach the printer directly to the iMac.
My next step was to delete the printer and reinstall the driver however everytime I try to add the printer via the setup utility it is not in the list. It is recognized via system profiler but not in the printer list. I also connected it to my MacBook and it worked without any problems.
Any ideas as to what the issue could be? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Paul and Vince -
I am still unable to print even after trying all of your suggestions (with the exception of purchasing the Fixamac product).
I was actually in the process of purchasing the product when I thought I would try my Epson Scanner as well to make sure that it works. Well, when I tried to scan it ended up giving me the same type of error (Scanner shows in System Profiler but when I try to scan it says it is unavailable) as my printer issue. I pulled some of my console logs at it looks like the issues might be related. Here is the log after trying to scan:
2007-02-25 21:21:23.216 EPSON Scanner Monitor[287] CFLog (21): GetDiskFragment returns -2806 for <IOUSBLib> when trying to load /System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle/Co ntents/MacOS/IOUSBLib

Here is the log after trying to setup the printer:

I really have no clue as to what the errors mean but I found it odd. Any ideas as to what the issue could be? I am about ready to pull my last few hairs out!

  • External Hard Drive in System Profiler not on desktop

    The system profiler recognizes my firewire drive (though it has a corrupted looking title: "m(õc‰ìÎÜÒ”≥’:". I can't access the drive itself. I've tried disk warrior, disk utility and Data Rescue II in an effort to get in (so I can put the info on another drive) and none of them find the drive at all.
    Any ideas (beyond cycling power or changing to different cables/ports) how I can get to the drive so I can salvage anything off of it?
    Thanks,
    Robert

    Basics of File Recovery
    If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location. OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
    If you empty the Trash the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When you delete files you erase only the directory entries, not the files themselves. However, the space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.

  • Logical System is not in the list of CentralSystem(CUA)

    Hi,
          I am trying to create Central User Administration (CUA) in my   landscape.
    CentralSystem:-
    I was created  one client 007 with user name CUA_ADM as Administrator and i have been defined a logicalsystem and assigned to it and created  RFC connecitons to clients in childsystem.
    ChildSystems:-
    In this way in child systems also created users, RFC connections and define logicalsystem and assigned to clients.
    1) My problem is i am trying to use transaction SCUA in that these       logical system of child system is not available.
    2) The logical system that is assigned for local clients is available after choosing those logicalsystems it giving error message like  cannot reach system PRDCLNT000 by RFC
    Any one please give me the suggestions regarding  how to solve it.
    Thanks,
    Vivek . Nellore

    Hi Vivek,
    Please ensure that  RFC destinations named same as the logical systems of child clients are created in master client.These RFC destination will be of type 3 and will point out to thee respective child clients. Similarily you may also create an RFC destination corresponding to master client in the child clients.
    While it is not necessary to have 1:1 relationship in naming of RFC destination  and logical systems it makes the job very easy. Other wise you need to check for ports involved in respective partner profiles(WE20) and then make sure that the ports are pointing to correct RFC destinations(which will be checked using WE21).
    Regards.

  • Order types entered in a Ztable, system will not perform material listing.

    Hi Guys,
    I have a requirement where user will enter the list of order types to be excluded from material listing  through a custom table.
    For all those order types entered in the custom table the  system will not perform any material listing check, regardless if the material is existing in the material listing.
    Can you please tell me how to do this through coding???Any particular exit or where can i code this.???
    Many Thanks in Advance,

    Swagat,
          Thank you for your response, what I am still not getting is - even in manual transfers via LT10 shouldn't the system restrict the movements to certain storage types? If you think from the shopfloor perspective the WM material movements are done at WM level only - meaning moving materials from one storage type to another and LT10 is widely used as it is one step tcode.
    I know we can restrict movements when storage class is assigned in search strategy, but this applies only to hazardous materials. The material in question is not hazardous so I am still thinking if there is any way to restrict material movements.
    Do you have any documentation link which mentions search strategies are not taken into consideration during manual transfer? If yes please send that would be helpful.
    Once again thanks for your time.

  • System Profile not recognising known good 80GB ADM

    I currently have 2 Xserve slot loading, running Mac OS Server 10.3.9. Drive bay 1 and 2 contain 2 mirrored drives. When I place the spare drive module in bay 3 it is not recognised in system profiler and will not mount. It has been working before for backups is this a known issue that may have been caused by an update ? I am currently running frimware version 5.1.7f1.
    Xserve G5 slot loading   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    First of all, unless you have 10.4 running and have your mirror set to auto-rebuild, your raid should now be degraded.
    It is easy to repair anyway, but you should check the status with disk utility or diskutil command line.
    I am assuming that unrecognized means that the drive doesn't even show up in disk utility? or does it say that the drive isn't recognized in the finder (with a message to format)?
    The latter may be fixed with the usual tools like disk warrior or even the repair funtion in Disk Utility. If the drive is completely invisible, it may be something as simple as a loose connector inside the drive module (power or sata). Have not seen that though.
    If you have Applecare, just try to get it exchanged...

  • IP Printing: HP OfficeJet Pro K850 not in driver list

    Hi
    After hours of work, I reckon I cannot solve the following problem on a iMac running Tiger 10.4.11 by myself. I installed a HP OfficeJet Pro K850 on my Mac directly trough USB, and everything worked fine. Then I decided to upgrade the whole system by connecting the printer trough a D-Link DP-G321 Print Server, in order to share the printer for the entire network. Despite everything works fine with Windows PCs, I can't get it to work with the Mac. By adding the K850 to the printer list, after typing the IP Address of the print server and the queue name, I have to choose the printer manufacturer and the model. Sadly, there is no entry in the HP list saying OfficeJet Pro K850, nor any similar printer models. I then simply tried to add the printer as a Generic PostScript Printer and print a document. I am sure there is a connection between my Mac and the printer, for the printer began to print strange texts until I pressed the cancel button on the printer. So it seems to be a driver problem, in fact the printer does not appear in the driver list, although the driver is (or should be) installed on my Mac (from the HP OfficeJet Pro K850 driver CD). How can I get the driver in that list? Appearantly, there is no "standalone" driver provided by HP, since the driver should be integrated in Mac OS X Tiger (at least that's what HP told me).
    Any help would be very appreciated!

    You can find this issue addressed here many times - but I guess you would need to know some background first...
    There are two kinds of drivers on OS X - Carbon and CUPS. Not like on Windows, where a driver is a driver. Manufacturers of non-postscript printers mostly provide Carbon drivers, where they can specify which comm protocol it uses. Your HP driver is written for USB only. You need a CUPS driver to use the network protocols, which are all part of CUPS.

  • Bonjour printer not showing up in Printer List

    I am having trouble adding a bonjour printer (HP PSC 1610). The printer is not showing up in the list of printers under System Preferences > Print & Fax. I was able to add the printer by clicking on the "+" sign. It found the bonjour printer and I clicked "Add." Everything seemed fine, but the printer is not showing up in the list of available printers.
    When I'm in Printer Setup Utility, the Printer shows up when I click View > Show Printer List. I just can't select it when I'm in an application and trying to print.
    I can print to the printer from my G5 which still has OS 10.3.9.
    MacBook Pro 1.83   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I think the reason you haven't got responses is that no one has experience with that. Here are some generic troubleshooting steps to try, one at a time:
    Repair permissions (Disk Utility).
    Delete Print Prefs - search for (File>Find) files that start with com.apple.print and delete them all and reboot.
    Reset Printing System (new in Tiger) - In Printer Setup, click this menu item found just above Quit Printer Setup.
    If there is a downloadable Combination Updater from Apple, use it to re-Update OS X.
    Try Printer Setup Repair from www.fixamac.net.
    Use a Disk Utility like Disk Warrior to repair the HD.

  • HP C3180 will not show up on printer list or set up assistant??

    When I try to add my new HP C3180 all in one printer, it will not show up on the printer list, or in HP set up assistant, and searches for new drivers fails to bring up any printers. My G4 does not seem to recognize the C3180 printer. Looked for updates to software and there are none. HP says I have the latest software. Uninstalled, and reinstalled HP software several times, still will not show up on the add printer list so I am not able to configure it. Previous Deskjet 970CXI printer is also missing which is OK if C3180 would show up. Anyone with any ideas? Thanks.

    If you are unable to print wirelessly, the comments below enabled me to print via my Airport Extreme. Just go to the "Print & Fax" system preferences, and 'add' a printer, then follow these instructions:
    -You can print using bonjour in a roundabout way. Wireless printing will work if you select "hp photosmart p1000 g-print beta" in the printer browser under the "print using" option in the print and fax control panel. If you choose this option, the computer will think it's hooked up to a p1000. So it will work with airport express!
    This advice was in the customer reviews section of the Apple Store for this printer, where a lot of people were complaining that they couldn't print wirelessly.

  • Shared printer not showing in list

    My husband and I both have mac g4's, connected over usb network. We both recently updated to 10.48. The printer is connected to usb hub on with his printer. Everything was fine til we updated operating systems. Now the printer stopped showing in my printer listing. It prints when connected directly to either computer. Did everything manual and books said about printer sharing. Both downloaded latest drivers. It's an HP Photosmart 3200.
    Thanks!

    g4 mirror   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hi Kathy,
    Generally the updates affect the permissions on files, so that is why the Repair Disk Permissions can resolve printing problems.
    Given that you are using TCP/IP to connect to each other, then you would be using the same protocol to view and connect to the shared printer. What you can do next is open the CUPS printer page of your computer to see if the shared printer is visible. Do the following;
    1. Open your Internet browser, such as Safari.
    2. For the address, type
    http://127.0.0.1:631/printers
    and hit Enter.
    This should show the printers installed on your computer and the printers shared on his Mac (Tamo). If it doesn't show his shared printer, type the following;
    http://ipaddress:631/printers/sharename
    Note that you need to replace ip_address with the IP address of your husbands Mac (Tamo) and 'shared_printer' with the shared name of the printer. So the address should look something like this;
    http://192.168.44.47:631/printers/HP3200
    If you are not sure of the shared name you can check this by clicking on Network Preferences > Print & Fax > Sharing.
    Doing the above in the browser should make the CUPS page for the shared HP appear. If it does then we are a step closer in working this out.
    Let me know how you go...
    Regards,
    Paul

  • Printer profile not there and brings into preview

    When I go to print, the printer profile for my Epson is not in the list. I know it's not on the computer, why is it not on the CS5 list?
    Then I click print and it print the image into Preview instead of printing on the epson. Why is that? thanks!

    Before installation of Network Magic, when printing you could choose Microsoft Office One Note in the printer list to print directly to One Note.  After installation of Network Magic it disappeared.  I need Cisco to tell me how to get it back as I print directly to One Note frequently for saving documentation.

    Hi, just attempted to reproduce your issue and was not able to.  I suggest doing a repair reinstall of OneNote to fix the issue.

    Hi,
    I am currently replying to this as it shows in the iChat Community.
    I have asked the Hosts to move it to Snow Leopard  (you should not lose contact with it through any email links you get)

  • Printing Notes/To-do lists aside calendars

    Is there any way to print either notes or a to-do list aside a monthly calendar on iCal?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    I think you can go to your preferences in ical - select advanced - then you can check HIDE completed items after "X" # of days or you can check DELETE completed items after "X" # of days. This has fixed the issue for me but i find it takes a few days for the check items to come off the printed list.
    HAS ANYONE FIGURED OUT how to set the print order of your TASKS. I can sort them on the desktop on the computer but when I print them they are all over the place and I cannot find anywhere that allows it to print in the same order as it is displayed - if they allow you to sort it into an order why can't it print in this order?
    Any help would be appreciated.
