Canon MP600 printer no longer working with Yosemite

I have an iMac, Mid 2011 with OS X Yosemite Version 1010.2 installed. It has 4gb of memory and a 2.7GHz Intel Core i5 processor. Of my 1TB of storage I have 934.81 GB free.
Since returning from a recent holiday my Canon Pixma MP600 printer has not been recognised by my iMac and I am no longer able to print from it. It did work with Yosemite before I left and I have been unable to restore the printer on the on the Printers and Scanners list. I have tried to uninstall the printer software and go back a step to install it with OS Mavericks but having gone through that process once it did not work.
Does anybody have any suggestions?

Hi trev1124
I have tried a number of ways to reinstall my printer but it does not appear in the drop down menu under Printers and Scanners and no matter what I seem to do will it come up. I am just about at my wits end with this. Short of binning my current printer (which was working perfectly well by the way) and buying a new one I do not know what else to do.
If anyone has any other suggestions I would be most grateful.

Printer won't work with Mavericks

Since downloading Mavericks, my HP printer won't work--at the office AND at home. Please help.
I've done everything I think was suggested from removing HP software, reseting printing, factory default of printer--everything!
Please help!

I guess from reading your message that Mavericks just hasn't got the drivers from HP to support this. You don't specify what model printer you are using but I would suggest that this issue here is that either your PH printer is an old model or that you need to go looking towards the HP website and see what their responses are to providing the appropriate drivers. You're not alone sadly and this is the problem when you move forward with the times and the ancilliary equipment you have come to rely on is no longer up to speed. Good luck!

HP Printer Won't Work With Snow Leopard

Hi, I hope you can help. I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and my HP printer won't print. It is a Laserjet 1015 and new drivers are meant to be on the list with SN. My iMac recognises the printer is there but cannot make a connection. I am networking it using an Airport which is working fine. I have even reset the printer system and deleted the printer and added it again but after starting to process a document to print it just stops.
The other thing is that Pages v 1.0.2 also won't work now. I can open the software, but it can't open any existing documents nor will it open a new blank template. This is my work software (I'm a journalist) so this is a real worry. Any suggestions??
Thanks so much
Jo

Hi JoJoh,
I can't be of much help with the printer but I just checked my "Pages" and my version number is 4.0.2. I'm using iWork 09. Perhaps you need to update? I just checked the "Snow Leopard Compatible" site and found "Apple Pages 4.0.2" is compatible. It didn't mention 1.0.2. I'm so sorry. That's pretty rough when it's how you make your living.
As for the printer, I have an HP Photosmart C4580 which wouldn't print. I finally just deleted all the printers on my MacBook and used my Snow Leopard install disk and selected the "Optional Install" which allowed me to just reinstall the printers. My HP is now working fine. I do feel like this is just a work-around until HP gets things sorted out. I say that because even though my HP now works, the only place it shows up is in my users folder. It's not in my Applications folder, but as long as it works for now, I don't care.
Hope I was of some help to you. Best of luck!

Peripherals won't work with Yosemite

I switched to Yosemite in autumn 2014 and it worked. Since I moved house and reassembled my Mac Pro and all its peripherals I've had problems. Both of my Apple USB keyboards now won't work. They each have the same problem - when plugged in they show the cap locks green light but nothing else. My Logitech wireless mouse no longer works, yet the Mighty Mouse does. Most frustratingly, my WD Passport external hard drive with my Time Machine on it, is no longer recognised. I have searched the Internet and there seem to be literally hundreds of people who are suffering a variety of frustrations from Yosemite. I've tried a few of the 'solutions' based on the 'turn it off and turn it back on again' theme, all to no avail. Having bought Macs since the early 1990s, I've always championed their simplicity and reliability. My patience is being sorely tested by Yosemite. A cheap PC with the new Windows operating system is beginning to look like an attractive alternative, especially now that Yosemite is looking like Apple's version of "Vista".
Any helpful ideas would be very welcome.

Canon MF4207 MultiFunction Laser Printer won't work with TCP/IP

Bought this printer. Very cool. Great quality. Fast...
But, we can't even get a "ping" via TCP/IP. We're about to take it back. Looking at other threads, do Canon's not work with Mac's on networks (even though their documentation says they do)?
Anyone with ideas?
Running both from a ether wired imac and a wireless powerbook. All on 10.4.?.
Thanks
Doug

First of all, Canon's designed for network printing do work. Most of the posts you have probably seen are for printers that haven't been designed for network printing, yet the users are still trying to configure them this way???
Looking at the manual, there a couple of things you need to do to print across a network.
As Kappy suggested, the first thing you need to do is configure the IP address of the MF4270. By default, the machine is set to DHCP, but if you don't have something on your network allocating addresses, then it will be set to all zero's.
Now you mention it won't ping, so we could make the assumption that you have set an appropriate IP address for your network and the machine is not responding. To be sure that you do have this set to the same subnet as your Mac network, print a User Data List.
Additional Functions > 11. Report Settings > OK > 2. List Print > 9. User Data List > OK
This will show you the IP address and subnet mask. It will also show you if LPD and RAW (Port 9100) print services have been enabled.
If you do not have an appropriate IP address set, then you need to press Additional Functions and scroll to 12. System Settings.
Press OK and scroll to 2. Network Settings then press OK.
This will show TCP/IP Settings. Press OK.
Scroll to 1. IP Address Auto and press OK. It will show ON. Scroll so it shows OFF and then press OK.
Now scroll to 2. IP Address and press OK. This will show the current address. Using the numeric keypad enter the desired IP address for the printer. Press OK to complete.
Now scroll to 3. Subnet Mask and input the appropriate subnet mask and press OK.
Now you can press the Stop/Reset key to exit and maybe print another User Data list to ensure the settings you entered are correct.
Now that you have the IP address set, you need to install the Canon UFR2 v1.60 driver for Mac OS X. If this version didn't come with the machine you can download it from the Canon web site.
Once you have run this driver installer you are ready to add the printer. Open the Printer Setup Utility and select Add. Select More Printers. Now select 'Canon IP (UFR II)'. This will show a pane allowing you to enter the IP address of the printer. It also wants a queue name. Enter LP for the queue name. Click Add and wait as the driver software will now query the printer and auto select the appropriate ppd. Once this is complete the MF4270 will appear in the Printer List.

My HP Photosmart 385 printer won't work with my operating system - Windows Vista Ultimate. Why not?

Is there a driver that I can dowload so my HP Photosmart 385 printer will work with my Windows Vista Ultimate operating system?

Hey Alyssa426,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
Since the installation disk does not support Windows 8.1, I would suggest trying to download, and install the drivers directly from the HP Support website. I have included a link to the 'HP Deskjet F4200/F4224 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver'. Once the software is downloaded, open the software, and follow through the on screen instructions for installation.
Please let me know the outcome of installing the software.
Thank you.

Printer won't work with Snow Leopard

Hello,
I have been using a Lexmark colour printer with my iMac. I upgraded to Snow Leopard and since then my printer does not work. Does anyone have a solution to this as I don't really want to buy another printer, especially as I have bought a new stock or print cartridges for the printer.
Many thanks to anyone who can help.
Kind regard, Maggi

Hello Maggi:
This is a list of OS X supported printer drivers:

Since you did not indicate your specific printer model, I cannot make further suggestions.
If your printer is not listed, some people have had success with generic Gutenberg drivers.

I recently installed an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in May 2013. It replaced an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in July 2007. My USB printer (Lexmark E350d) worked fine with the old Airport, but the printer won't work with the new one.

I recently installed an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in May 2013. It replaced an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in July 2007. My USB printer (Lexmark E350d) worked fine with the old Airport, but I'm having trouble with the new one. When I try to print, I get a USB Waiting message on the printer, and when I force a page to print by pressing Go on the printer, I get a page that says ERROR: syntaxerror OFFENDING COMMAND: true. . . .cvt . . . fpgm . . . x . . .lglyf . . . <..J head . . . STACK: / [ -mark- /sfnts I’ve tried shutting down the printer and disconnecting it and the Airport, but that doesn’t help. I reset the settings on the printer. I upgraded the Airport firmware and removed, reinstalled, and upgraded the Lexmark printer driver. After I upgraded the firmware and printer driver, a few pages printed correctly, but then I got the same syntax error page as before. Any suggestions for getting the printer to work correctly?

Use a powered USB hub between the AE and the printer.. the usb port does sometimes have issues.
Try deleting the printer in the Mac and reinstall it.. the change in AE can represent effectively a change of printer.. it is important to make sure that is all up to date.
Beyond that.. USB printers.. ughhh! Consider for two toners you can go and buy a proper network printer.

HP scanner won't work with Yosemite

I can't use my scanner (HP Deskjet F380 All-in-One) now that I have Yosemite. I looked for the HP driver, but it doesn't exist for OS X 10.10.1 I need help, please.

Have you tried using Image Capture that comes with Yosemite. I had a similar problem after the upgrade and my HP was no longer supported. I switched to Image Capture and it works fine, lacks some features that the HP software provided but overall it works for my needs.

My midi/audio interface Edirol PCR 1 won't work with Yosemite and Roland have no driver update. Is this the end of the line for this device.

My midi/audio interface ( Edirol PCR1) will not interface with Yosemite 10.10 and Roland have no driver update, is there any fix for the problem or is the end of the line for this device.

Same problem here, what a shame as this has been my favorite portable keyboard for ages. Whenever I see one in a store(very rarely) I'll grab it.

Printer does not work with Yosemite

After upgrading to Yosemite my Canon LBP 5050n won't print anymore.
i Installed the new driver but that did not solve the problem.
Any idea?

I've read countless threads and posts regarding the printer issues, because I have been trying to trouble shoot mine.
What I'm reading is that, no matter what you do, what driver you update correctly, what preferences you pick, etc., the one common denominator is the newest Yosemite update (10.10.3).
No matter what brand of printer, how new, how well they worked just before the update, suddenly everyone is having issues with their printers.
While appreciate your suggestions and, while some of them sometimes help a few people with a part of their problem, they don't work. And probably won't until there is yet another update to address these bugs.
Could the printer (and all-in-one printer/scanners) issues be somehow related to the new Photos app that replaced iPhoto? Partially?
I admit that I haven't even tried scanning or emailing anything yet because I'm still trying to figure out why in the heck my printer isn't printing in color.
Simple thing. Print a color picture, photo, file, etc, in color as it shows in print preview. But when it prints, it's in black and white.
So we all reinstall or update our drivers for our particular printers and we can't get them to function completely. Some people's printers won't even print, some are fuzzy, some are out of scale, some won't print in color.
We check all our settings like you tell us, we walk through every step like we're told, we do everything correctly. Yes, that includes checking our ink cartridges.
Consider for a moment that we are all adults, not stupid, have owned apple computers for years and aren't new to them; Remember how people say everything was working just fine BEFORE the update. Then go back to all your tech gurus at Apple and bring us a real solution. It's not us. It's not our printers. It's Apple.

My Printer won't work with windows vista

I just got a new computer that runs windows vista and I can not get my printer to work it is a photosmart 1115. How can I get this to work it is my favorite printer

If this is the Photosmart 1115 that uses the #45 and #78 cartrdiges then use the "Add Printer" command in the Printers folder to add the Deskjet 970 printer. The Deskjet 970 driver is compatible with the Photosmart 1115 for printing although the functionality of reading the card slots back to the computer will not be available.

Printer won't work with Ethernet cable connected to AEBS

I've been using my AEBS with built-in modem for a year with no problems. Today I got a DSL modem (finally available in my area) and when I connected the ethernet cable from the DSL modem to my AEBS, my printer stopped working. It now gives the following error message: "Printing Problem - the process "mdns" stopped unexpectedly with status 1". The printer is still available from the printer setup utility and I tried deleting and reinstalling the printer
I have tried several different variations of restarting the modem and AE in various orders, but no joy. However, when I disconnect the ethernet cable from the AE and restart it, I can print fine.
I have three computers on the network (G4 MDD PowerMac, G5 iMac, and C2D MPB) and I get the same error message from all three.
Any suggestions (perhaps an interpretive dance to the network gods?) on how to get both the DSL and printer to play nice at the same time??
Thanks, Eric

see if anything in the Printer Troubleshooting Guide helps.

Printer won't work with either computer on the wireless network

Yesterday I went to the HP website and downloaded the rcommended drivers associated with my Win 7 computer and Officejet 7310 printer. Ever since I can't print at all. My other laptop connected to the network (Win Vista) won't print either. My computer indicates that my printer is offline. How do I get these devices talking to one another again
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Download and run this diagnostic, it should tell us what is going on.
The IP address looks right for the printer. The DNS server and gateway (router IP address) are often the same at x.x.x.1
I suspect a firewall issue, but let's see what the diagnostic tells us.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
