Problem with Cannon i9900 Printer on Mavericks

Printer stops and returns the message, "Filter failed".
The printer was working fine under 10.8 AND under 10.9 ( (mavericks) until I tried to update the Cannon i9900 printer driver!
I've reset the printer system with hope of starting fresh. I've fixed disk permissions (which did find problems and corrected).    I've also tried restoring the Cannon i9900 driver I used in 10.8 from time machine.   I ensure the supplies where full.   I did mutliple restarts.
Nothing works, Cannon jobs stop and return the dreaded " Filter failed" message ....
What is odd, is that I can communicate with the printer and do test sheets, head cleaning, and printer utility functions.    This all runs fine and the printer ink level are good.   Leads me to beleive the printer is fine, but someting in my OS/cups is whacked for the Cannon. My other printer (lexmark 250dn) works fine on 10.9 and I can successfully reinstall it after a printer system reset.
I later dug into the printer update on the apple site (Yes I should have check this first), and subsequently discovered the i9900 wasn't in the supported list.   http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669#canon-inkjet This is why I'm wondering if its a maverick driver problem.   The driver I've currently got installed is version 10.67.1.0, it looks like all supported cannon drivers are now at 10.72.1.0.
Thanks in advance for any help that can restore my printer!
Bon

Problem solved. The Canon i9900 does indeed work again in Marvericks!
Had to remove the new apple drivers and use the older Cannon drivers.    Did the following:
1.) Downloaded the Snow Leopard 10.6 Canon drivers (newest on the Canon website).
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/i_series/i 9900#DriversAndSoftware
2.) Reset my printer system.   This removes most of the files in the /Library/Printers folder; however, there were still hidden files in the folder that had stuff that I think contributed to the driver "confusion". Likely why my earlier resets of the printer system were not successful.
3.) Set FInder so I could see hide files. Opened Terminal and entered:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
killall Finder
4.) Removed the (now unhidden) canon folder from /Library/Printers
5.) Installed new driver obtained in step 1.   In my case this installed the printer in the Printers & Scanner System Pereferences, and my printer was back up and running!
6.) Reset my finder to hide hidden files from Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
killall Finder

Printing problem with HP LaserJet Printer since Mavericks Installed

Hello,
I'm working on iMac and I have recently installed OSX Mavericks.
I have now printing troubles with my printer HP LaserJet P1102w.
Sometimes it prints, sometimes it doesn't.
When it doesn't print I often need to suppress the file in the printer task and then print again. And there it works.
I have tried to solve the problem by installing all the HP drivers, and also made a Reset printing system, but it does'nt change anything.
Any Idea ?
Thank you for any help.

Hi Vishnu,
Above you have the following commands:
set line spacing 6 LPI
\e\0x32
set page length 86 lines
\e\0x43\0x46
46 HEX = 70
So the above settings mean 70 lines at 6 LPI = 11.66 inches.
So is the paper length 11.66 inches? If not, you should adjust the settings accordingly.
Regards,
Aidan

Problem with Photoshop Elements Printing

I have been using Photoshop Elements for a couple of years now and know it pretty well. Today while attempting to print, a strange problem came up: After going through the protocol to make a print, just before the image prints PE does a very fast auto correction that basically ruins all the color correction I have made on the image. How do I disable this function?

Hi and thanks for your reply. I checked the settings under "Print", "More Options", then "Color Management" and it only has "Print Space", none of the three options that you said I should have. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Check your color management by clicking More Options in the print dialog There are basically three options:1) Printer Manages Color2) Elements Manages color3) No color Management Make sure everything is consistent e.g. if you choose Elements manages color make sure color management is switched off in the print driver.

Cannot print due to a problem with the current printer

Cannot print (anymore) due to a problem with the current printer is the message I get every time I try to print something out. I tried to reinstall the printer's software, I changed the cables, but nothing happened. It seems to be something related to the printer setup utility. Any big idea on how to solve this? I was printing without problems until this afternoon. I have a HP Laserjet 1022 and sometimes I use Adobe Acrobat Writer. None is currently working.
Thanks for any help.

Problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.

Hello,
I have a problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.
My FOIs are displayed correct on the screen but on the printed letter
the stroke(border) color and the labels of a circle are not displayed.
the fois have a custom style:
var xmlDef = '<svg width="1in" height="1in">'+
'<g class="marker" '+
'style="width:40;height:40;stroke:0xff0000;fill:0x00ff00;stroke-width:1.5">'+
'<circle r="20"/>'+
'</g>'+
'</svg>';
markerStyle = new MVXMLStyle("my_vector_icon_" + i + '_' + j, xmlDef)
and are created like this:
v_result = new MVFOI(p_geofeature.foiId, p_geofeature.foiGeomertyObject, markerStyle, null, 30, 30);
v_result.setHTMLElement('1',0,0);
Browser: I can see the map with a green circle, a red border and '1' as a label on
top of the Circle.
Printed Letter: I see the map with the green circle but no red border Color and no label.
The implmentation of the printing function uses the same techique like the "Oracle Maps Tutorial"
It is a javascript function called through a href link:
function mapPrint()
var a=document.getElementById("printmap");
global_gdi.mapviewer.mapview.print(a);
Version is Ver11_1_1_5_B110527
Does anbody know how to print the map properly including the contents of the
MVFOI class set trough setHTMLElement function?
Greetings
Andre

Thanks for your reply but it is not working and i can prove that.
I have a small example based on the mapviewer print tutorial. To run it you need a
mapviewer installation and copy the text into a html file. In the browser you can see
a green point with a red border and red label text on a map.
If you use the print button everything except the label text will be printed.
I think this is a mapviewer css-api bug.

If you have problems with Apple Apps after installing Mavericks

I had a problem with Apple Apps after installing Mavericks. They would bounce in the dock but never open. The problem apps I had trouble with were CALENDAR, MAIL, and even APP STORE. I am guessing it has to do with permissions when setting up via iCloud. Here's what I did to make my apps work again after the update:
Restart computer, then immediately hold down OPTION so you can start from the 10.9 RECOVERY DISK.
Run DISK UTILITY, then run REPAIR DISK, then run REPAIR DISK PERMISIONS.
After this, RESTART, then hold COMMAND OPTION P R at the same time until your computer restarts three times.
After it boots up, the apps began working like they should have.

That's where your questions about Lion should be posted.

Problem with NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on different machines

We have 5 machines here in our workgroup which have the same state regarding security patches and other system updates. We recently found out that there is a problem with the NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on the different machines.
If I would open the VI on MachineA the control could be loaded. If I would open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineB to MachineA and open the VI the control could not be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineA to MachineB and open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. MachineB could load the version from MachineA and MachineB but on MachineA only the own version will load. I have seen that both versions have the same GUID for the Microsoft Webbrowser but are different in some other aereas.
Since printing HTML Reports is part of the application which will be distributed as application I want to know if someone else have seen such a behaviour or has got problems distributing an application.
Also I want to know which additional information is stored in an Active-X container about the control beside the GUID.
We have Win XP Prof SP2 with MS IE 6.0.2900.2180 on all machines in the workgroup.

Hi Tom,
this is the VI <vi.lib>\Utillitiy\NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi copied from a machine that can load and run the VI and it will print. On this machine the control in the VI is white.
This VI will give the "Control could not be loaded" message on my machine.
The file shdocvw.dll is 2006-10-23 16:18 size 1.460 KB and I verifyed that both machines have the same version of this file.

Wifi problem with Mac after upgrade to Mavericks

I just upgraded to Mavericks but something wrong with my wifi.
i can get internet through LAN link from Airport but not through wifi even i can receive an IP address
i tried connect to hotspot with my iphone5s and it works.
Other devices can use wifi just fine through Airport, just not my Mac using Mavericks
In conclusion,
Airport should be fine because my other devices works.
Mac wifi should be fine too because i can connect using hotspot.
so why it's not working when i connect Mac to Airport?

I was having problems connecting to Wifi with my Macbook Pro (!2010), after upgrading to Mavericks. I was on the phone repeateadly with AT&T because I have Uverse. Testing everything (channels, signal strength) and had techs come out to check the line, ports, switches, etc. When I hardwired the Mac into the Uverse router, it worked fine. This rulled out any problems with the line in.
I considered getting a repeater but then I read that repeaters are not really good and it is better to reconfigure a router to act as an access point on the network. Plunked down about $80 for a Belkin AC750 router at Best Buy. In the setup it has an option to set it up as an access point only. Clicked that, connected it to my Motorola NVG510 Uverse modem and then connected to the Belkin router from my Mac. Voila! It's been a solid 11+ Mbs ever since (my plan maxes at 12Mbs). Connection is still solid and life if good even though it ***** to plunk down another $80 for a second router. But it was worth it just to get rid of the headaches.
I think the wifi capabilities of the Motorola NVG510 modem are the cause of a lot of problems with AT&T Uverse issues, particularly for Mac owners. I think it was also causing my Airport Expresses to drop occasionally.... Few minutes of music then drop... music drop.... All gone now.
I don't know if you are on Uverse but if so, I highly recommend configuring a second router as an acces point (it can be any old router you still might have - the setup is just a bit trickier because you have to do it manually).
Good luck.

Problems with mail after upgrading to Mavericks

Hello,
since I upgraded to Mavericks, I have problems with Mail.
The mail app doesn't retrieve any mail from my email servers. IMAP or POP or exchange mail no longer work.
I have these problems on my iMac and my MBP.
The strangest thing is that I have no more new emails in my icloud account since the upgrade. Not only does mail not retrieve the emails but I even can't see any new mail online.
On my iphone with iOs7 the mails are retrieved, except of course the mails from the icloud account.
Has anybody a solution at hand?
Thanks

this might help with the gmail problem: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/?viewall=true

Problems with stopped HP Print Jobs on Mac OS 10.5.

I have several Mac Stations with different Mac OS X versions (Mac OS X 10.5-10.7) and bought 2 HP Laser Printers:
- HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dw
- HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw
After installing the HP Driver SW on all Mac Stations I changed then on the Printers the dynamic IP address to static ones. The printing didnt work anymore from the Mac Stations. I re-installed all Driver SW on every Mac Station. Then Printing worked on every Mac, except only on the Mac OS X 10.5. Station the Print Jobs were always stopped after any Print attempt.
This appeared on the Mac OS X 10.5. Machine in the Printer Spooler Job Message Window and within the error_log File content:
- can't create PictWPSDoc from `/private/var/spool/cups/xxx'.ERROR during execution of pictwpstops. Error number -9783
As it seems like problems existed with file permissions I ran a complete Disk Utility File Permission Repair. Then another reinstall of the HP Driver Packages. - Still the same failures with stopping Print Jobs.
Then I read the README file of the Installation Package. And the quite simple solution was:
DE-INSTALL the HP Driver SW FIRST (with the HP Deinstallator), BEFORE RE-INSTALLING the HP Driver SW again.
So I did this, then no Print Jobs were stopped anymore and both Printer are happily printing.
The conclusion is, I guess, Mac 10.6..10.7 does not have problem with multiple re-installation of the HP driver SW. Only the Mac OS 10.5. did NOT work anymore after another reinstall of the Driver SW Package, and without de-installing it properly. The bottom line is to de-install the driver SW (and maybe disk repair) properly BEFORE another insallation wants to be done. This however solved my printing problems on the Mac OS X 10.5. machine.

HP Laserjet 1020 problem with double-side printing

Hi, everyone!
I have a problem with my printer HP laserjet 1020. From the community I know that there is no driver for 1020, but there is for 1022 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907). I installed it and everything was fine until I tried to print 2-sided page... It appears 2-sided option disappeared and I don't know how to fix this...
Can anyone help, please?
Thank you for looking.

AMW122,
The part in the photograph appears to be part of the fuser assembly. If it is part of the fuser assembly, I would recommend you replace the fuser. An internet search on "LaserJet 3300 fuser" found several links.
From what I can see, it appears that the fuser sleeve is damaged which will continue to worsen.
If it is not the fuser, can you post another photograph further away so that we can see the location on the printer where it is located, etc...
