Printing to a networked Canon S9000 mkii from a Macbook Pro
I am using a Macbook Pro connected to a primarily PC network in my office. All of our printers are connected to a dedicated Windows machine on the network that hosts the printer drivers. I am able to print to three other printers just fine on this network except for our 11x17 Canon S9000 pro. I've downloaded the latest driver for Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and basically, once I hit PRINT, nothing happens.
If I go to the dedicated PC, it does acknowledge a print job coming in, but shows it as unknown user and just hangs until I have to manually delete it.
Can anyone determine what might be happening?
Thanks,
Steve
Not knowing how your office network is set up I would speak to your IT person.

How do you setup a canon mp620 to print from a Macbook Pro?
How can i print from my MacBook Pro with a canon mp620 printer? I have the printer setup with a PC via USB and want to add the MacBook as a new computer and print wirelessly. I have tried the installation cd and updated drivers from canon website but it still wont work.
I have managed to get my working. Firstly, I googled the CUPS drivers for the printer and then downloaded those from canons website. I then went to print and scan in system preferences and noticed that the printer had appeared there. I believe it was those drivers that made the difference but i was fiddling for hours before that so i cant be 100% sure how i got it to work.

How can I print from my MacBook Pro to Canon MP560 using rear tray? I can't find that "option" in the print selection possibilities.
Sure can.
With a document open in Pages, select to print so that you can see the print dialog as shown below.
Note that to see this view, you may need to press the Show Details button in the bottom left corner. In the image above, since I have the expanded view displayed, this button changes to Hide Details
So with the view shown, first change the Presets menu to Default Settings. Then click the Layout drop menu and select Quality & Media. Make the changes you want and then click on the Presets menu and select Save Current Settings as Preset...
At the next window, give the Preset a name and select the Only this Printer radio button and then click OK to save it. That's it.
As for the Preset that you already have, if you no longer want this preset then you can delete it via the Show Presets menu pane that you've used already. -
My iPad is on the same network as the Airport Extreme. The HP printer is on the list of Airprint printers but I'm not using it as a wireless printer, per se, as it's hooked up to the USB port on the Airport Extreme.
I installed the HP ePrint app on my iPad. Unfortunately, the app could not find the printer either.
As mentioned earlier, I'm able to print wirelessly to the HP printer via my MacBook Pro.ApplePearApple wrote:
Since I'm able to print to the HP printer from my MacBook Pro using this configuration, shouldn't I be able to print to the printer from my iPad, especially when all of the devices are on/using the same network?
Not necessarily. AirPrint uses a protocol separate from the communication protocol used for the Extreme's USB port. The HP printer may disable AirPrint when its USB port connected to a valid device, which is my reason for recommending you use it wirelessly.
From AirPrint Basics:
AirPrint printers connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported.
AirPrint printers connected by Ethernet are supported in OS X.
You may get more competent assistance from HP. See this HP support forum topic: iPhone & iPad can't Airprint to p1102w LaserJet
HP's Mac support has always been miserable though. I have been much happier since I abandoned HP and started buying Brother printers. They just work. -
Deskjet 5440 stopped printing wirelessly from my MacBook Pro after upgrading to OS 10.8
My home printer is connected by cable to a desktop Mac (Power Mac G5). I have always printed wirelessly to it from my MacBook Pro laptop through our home wireless network. However, just recently I upgraded the operating system on my laptop to 10.8.2. At the same time, I upgraded the HP driver software (from HP) that is supposed to allow the 5440 to work with the new OS. Since then, I can print from my laptop if it is connected by cable to the printer, but not wirelessly. When I attempt to print wirelessly, get a message that says the printer is not connected.
So you are using Printer Sharing on the PowerMac? If so, on the PowerMac, go to System Preferences > Print & Fax and delete the printer with the '-' sign at the bottom of the printer list. Re-add it with the '+' sign.
Make sure that Printer Sharing is checked and that in System Preferences > Sharing that Printer Sharing is also checked there.
Now, on the MacBook Pro, go to System Preferences > Print & Scan and click the '+' sign to add the printer.

hi FalconMom,
EWS stands for Embedded Web Server. You will be able to access the printer EWS if it is connected to the same network as your PC or notebook. Here are the instructions to connect to EWS.
Open the embedded Web server
You can access the embedded Web server via either the network or Wi-Fi Direct.
To open the embedded Web server via network
NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP address for the
printer can be found by pressing the Wireless icon or by printing a network configuration page.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web browser:
http://192.168.0.12.
To open the embedded Web server using Wi-Fi Direct
From the Home screen, touch (Wireless) and then touch (Settings).
If the display shows that Wi-Fi Direct is Off, touch Wi-Fi Direct and then switch it on.
From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wi-Fi Direct name,
for example: DIRECT-**- HP Officejet-5740 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your
printer). Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.

Printing from a macbook pro to an HP psc 2355 printer
I need helping printing from a macbook pro to an hp psc 2355 printer. The printer is connected to a pc which runs Windows Vista. The pc is connected to a wireless router (so the PC has to be on to print). Hope this is simple!
You could start by resetting your printing system and then see if the computer sees the printer. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/14001.html
Is your wireless network protected by a password? Does it have a name?
I have a wireless HP AIO that I connect thru my wireless router. In other words the wireless router is the hub for the printer so the three notebooks and iTouch can print to it from anywhere in the area. -
Help! My Canon MG5520 printer is apparently not connected to my late 2013 MacBook Pro!
Help! My Canon MG5520 printer is apparently not connected to my late 2013 MacBook Pro! I have had this printer a few months and everything has been working fine until today. I did I have to turn my wifi router on and off this morning, so I think that might be it. I'm not extremely tech savy, so if anyone could lend a hand, I would appreciate it!! I've tried unplugging it, turning it on and off again, quitting it my from laptop, nothing works. Do I need to reconnect it to the wifi? How do I do this? I turns on fine and doesn't give my any error messages, it'st just my laptop that says it isn't connected. Sorry if this is a stupid question.
Thanks for providing complete information. It seems like you've ruled out faulty docking cable, bad USB port, and software issue on the new Mac. And since the shuffle still works fine on the older Mac, it's not a problem on the shuffle.
Some things to try...
Connect the MacBook to its power adapter, so that it's not running the battery power. If any other USB devices are connected, try connecting the shuffle as the only device, to a direct USB port on the MacBook.
If you can keep it connected for long enough, go to the shuffle's Settings screen in iTunes and set it to Enable disk use (and Apply). This will keep the shuffle's disk mounted continuously, instead of iTunes unmounting the shuffle's disk when not syncing.
If you happen to have an old USB 2.0 hub that has its own power supply, connect the shuffle through the hub to see if that make any difference. The new Macs have USB 3.0, so if that's the cause, maybe a USB 2.0 hub in between can act as a "buffer" and make it work. -
Wireless Printing from the MacBook Pro
So I've read and scanned just about every post pertaining to this subject but still have not been able to print wirelessly from my shiney new MBP. I understand that appletalk is the issue and that printing using LPD is the answer, but still... nothing. Perhaps I am ******** when it comes to the technical details but I've got the mac address for my printer, I went into my D-link router and assigned a static IP addess to the printer, I saved, applied, and still can't seem to get it to work... what am I doing wrong here? Am I missing a step? I have an older HP LaserJet 4plus. It works fine when I plug into the network but just can't seem to make it work wirelessly. If anyone can help me out, it would be very much appreciated!!
I've just purchased a MacBook Pro to add to my existing PowerBook G4 and m wife's PowerBook 12". Both the older machines can see the two printers that we have attached to our Netgear router, itself wired to an Apple Extreme Airport. They can see the printers (an old HP LaserJet 2100TN and a spanking new Konica [QMS] MagicColour 2450) and can print to both without any problems. The new MacBook Pro, whilst it is accessing the network and the Internet just fine via the Airport Extreme but when I open the Print& Fax control panel in System Preferences, and ask the new machine to add the two printers it brings up the Printer Browser, the Searching for new drivers wheel does its thing and hey presto it shows up nothing. Help!
I did buy the MacBook Pro in the US rather than the UK but then the little Powerbook was purchased there too and has no problem printing wirelessly.
Any help from Apple folk reading this or other visitors to the board most gratefully received. Thanks, Piers -
Hi can anyone help me? I am having trouble printing from my macbook pro to my brother printer. It worked fine yesterday but now its dissapeared from my options to print.
I have tried plugging in an eternet (blue) cable from the printer to the wireless router, but i dont know how to make my macbook find the wireless printer!
If your printer is like my Canon printer, you'll have to do as Bob suggests - use the Setup on the LCD panel of your printer to set up wifi. Pretty easy with my Canon PIXMA MG8220...

I am trying to set up using my printer wirelessly through airport. I have a macbook and my husband can print wirelessly from his Macbook Pro but I can't. What do I have to do to set mine up? The printer is an Epson R2400
Is there a cd that came with the printer?
If so, put in the cd and that will help you set it up.
If not, I think macs come with a program that helps you set up printers.
Also make sure that the printer is connected to the same network.
Make sure the printer is on. -
How do I use AirPort Extreme to be able print from my MacBook Pro AND a PC. If I connect printer into AirPort, I can only print on laptop. If printer is connected to PC hard drive, I can only print on desk top. How do I configure this to make both print?
If you have not already done so, your chances will really improve if you....
1) Connect the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
2) Download and install Bonjour Print Services for Windows on the PC -
I can print from my macbook pro using airport express usb connected printer, however my iPad and iphone are looking for an airprint printer. Can I direct the iPad/iphone to the usb connected printer. Macbook iphone and iPad confirm a wifi connection through the airport express.
You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.
