Question about windows printer canon bj5200 can't print or see in Leopard

Hello;
this has been a problem for me in Tiger as well, I have a windows workgroup network and have a canon bj5200 share on a windows xp machine, I've done some research and can't seem to find the solution on how print from Leopard (previous Tiger) to the shared printer. I choose + to add the printer and then windows it shows my network name but nothing after that. Solutions anyone?

You will either need to enable the Guest account on the Windows computer or create an SMB queue using the account details for the XP PC. In Tiger this was done using the Advanced setting which was available after holding the Option key while pressing More Printers. Not sure if the same process exists for Leopard - will have to check on the MacPro at work or someone with Leopard at home can confirm.
Also, you probably won't be able to use the Canon provided driver as they are usually written to work only with a direct USB connection from the Mac. So you have to find a compatible GIMP-Print (know Gutenprint) driver for the 5200. However the Canon BJ5200 is not listed as a supported device under Gutenprint v5.1.3 nor PrintFab. Are you sure of the model? There is a iP5200...

    installed new 5520 last weekend.  windows keeps shutting down IE.  went through windows suggestions.  says it is due to smartprint.  I do not need smartprint or e-print, just want to print from my laptop.  Can I uninstall smartprint and e-print and just use regular printing?  Also, I can't print from e-mail.  I can print everything else except from e-mail.  Anyone know how to correct this? 

    I am linking you to a video on removing Smart Web Printing.

  • MacBook - Canon MFC8380CDW Can't print wifi

    Purchased Canon Printer MFC 8380 CDW. Can't print wifi using my Macbook Air. The wifi light is lit on the printer. Not sure why I can't print wirelessly!

    The Canon site as all the details and user manual for this printer including software if required, you will be able to accessthe relevant information there.

  • HT4356 What about the iPad notes. Can we print them with Airprint?

    They say we can use Airprint with Safari, Pages, Mail, etc. But no mention of Notes. Not mentionning we can't either. Can we? My dad had a Canon printer compatible with Airprint. Both the updates has been made on the iPad and Canon software. When trying to print it says they can't find the Airprint. "Aucune imprimante Airprint détectée", to use the exact same word.
    Thanks!

    If he has a Canon printer that is compatible with Airprint, and he has upgraded the printer Firmware, you should be able to print.  In fact, you should be able to print emails, web pages, notes, AND photos through Airprint.  The Canon app should add more capability when printing photos (e.g., choice of paper types, paper sizes, image sizes, etc) that Airprint does not offer, so the Canon app is good to have for photos.
    Make sure his iPad is connected to the same wifi network as the printer.
    Try turning the printer off then on again.  This will reset it.
    What kind of a router is he using?  Airprint needs Bonjour to talk to the router.  There may be a firmware upgrade for that too.

  • Questions about Windows services on a OS X 10.3 server

    Hi! I'm wanting to configure an OS X 10.3 server to participate in a Windows workgroup so I can share a directory on the server that the Windows machine can use as a backup drive, of sorts. I've got only ONE Windows box in an all-Mac network. The ultimate goal is to provide an automated backup solution for the Windows machine. I would like the Windows user to copy their files to the server so the scheduled Backup running on the server will backup their files, along with the rest of the files that are backed up to iDisk.
    So, I'm thinking I can use the Windows service on the OS X server to provide the backup directory/folder the Windows machine will map to a local windows drive, making it easy to copy files to the target backup area.
    I've got AFP, OpenDirectory (I think), and Windows service as the only services running on the OS X server. I've got the Windows service setup as a standalone server with the correct workgroup name and the Windows machine is setup with the same workgroup as the server. The Windows machine is running Windows XP.
    I've got the Windows service setup to act as the workgroup browse master and I do NOT have WINS enabled.
    Now for my questions:
    When I view the workgroup on the server in the "Network" area of Finder, I see nothing. When I view the workgroup on the Windows machine, I only see the Windows machine. On the server, I turned on the Windows service log and noticed only SMBD was starting, not NMBD. I presume this is why the server can't "see" the Windows machine and vice-versa, correct?
    I've read the following threads:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2358362&#2358362
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4132419&#4132419
    and it looks like I need to create an account for the Windows user on the OS X server and I'm thinking I need to use the "Workgroup Manager" for that, right?
    There are no passwords for the Windows accounts that would be connecting to the same backup area on the server. Will I be able to create accounts without passwords on the server for these users or will I be required to specify a password for when the Windows machine connects to the server?
    This is my first time configuring an OS X server like this so please excuse my elementary questions.
    Thanks!
    Peace...

    You need to make sure the shortname in workgroup manager is the same as the logon name when you create the drive on the PC.
    Personally i'd do it all over IP. On the PC goto Run, and type \\ip address of server\sharename. It should then ask for a UN/PW, this is what you've entered into workgroup manager, and should be the shortname.
    That should then give you the drive.
    To map it so its always there when they log-in, goto my computer and map network drive, making sure you click the link that says 'use a different account to connect'

  • Network printer issue - User can't print once logged back in. Windows 7

    Hello
    I have a bit of a mystery. We have a networked printer which everyone can printer to a part from one user.  When you try printing from any application the "print" gets sent then nothing, not even in the print queue.
    However in the same office everyone else can print.
    I have tried the following.  
    Made sure the printer is set to default.
    Sign in as Admin - I can print
    Other users - Can print
    Removed the device in the users profile re-added the device user can print.
    But when the user logs out and logs back in they can't print.
    Restarted print spooler. - No luck.
    No errors and printer always showing online.
    Any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
    Windows 7 machine 
    Thank you
    Adam

    1. Have you used the printui.exe tool to remove the print drivers? 2. If you sign the user to other machine can he print there? 3. Have you tried to recreate the user profile on that machine?

  • Can't print: "Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document,

    Hello,
    I have searched these forums but have not found a solution to my problem.
    I recently purchased an IOGear USB Print Server (print server only, not USB device server). I was having issues installing and followed a Microsoft support document to try and resolve the issue. It had me remove some entries from the registry.
    Hours later, I was able to get the printer installed and working, but I do not know if it was a result of the registry tweak. But now that it has been installed, I cannot get anything to print from Acrobat Reader (I have tried 7.0 and 8.1.1). I get the following error message:
    "Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."
    Is there something I should check in the registry to make sure that it will work? I do know for sure that it was working when it was just the printer and drivers installed, it only happened after running the print server setup. I have already tried removing the printers and drivers from the system.
    Thanks,
    Braden

    I have a problem similar to those posted here, with one difference. With my printers newly installed, regardless of which one is selected as the default, when I try to print from Adobe Reader I receive the error message we're talking about : "Before you can perform a print related task...."
    Here's the fun part.
    If I click OK on the message, ALL MY PRINTERS GET DELETED and, I get the windows message that "Spooler subsystem app has encountered a problem and needs to close"! If instead of clicking OK I switch to Task Manager and end Adobe, I'm fine and can print from other programs.
    I can "reset" the problem by deleting the files in C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers and C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86, restarting the machine, and deleting then reinstalling the printers (which show up again after the restart).
    BUT, if I try to print from Adobe Reader again, I get the same cycle of problems.
    I am running Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 8.1

  • Just got a macbook, and I cannot print on my printer. I used to be able to print on my printer with my old Dell laptop, but I can't print with my macbook. I can see the printer network on on my macbook, it says it is my default printer, but I can't print.

    I just got a macbook air and I cannot print on my home printer which is networked through my wife's window based computer. I can see the wifi network, I can see the printer, it is set as my default, but I can't print.
    Any ideas?

    You may have to visit the printer manufacturer's web site and look into their support pages to get a print driver for your Mac, and install it. Or see if you can see if a driver may already be in your Mac by checking settings, since there are many drivers already installed in Mac OS X.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • New printer purchase and can't print from classic 9 partitioned side of HD

    I recently purchased an Epson RX595 printer. After installation I found that I can only print from the OS X - 10.3.9 (Panther) partitioned side. (This is the original HD so it is not all that big.) I cannot print anything on the Classic 9 partition. My question is can I transfer my Microsoft Office 98 from Classic 9 to the OS X, if so, how do I do that? I tried simply click and drag and it opens from the OS X but the menu bar tells me it is really opening from Classic 9 and therefore will not print. My G4 is the first one Apple made (purchased in 1999). The processor is 450 MHz and I have 640 MB SDRAM. I was told by the support person at Epson that OS X is the "dominant" side of the HD which is fine. I just need to know how to get my applications on Classic 9 to the OS X. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    That printer is only compatible with OS X (Jaguar or later) and the oldest version of Word compatible with OS X is Office 2000.
    NeoOffice (freeware/opensource) is a Mac suite of applications compatible with Microsoft Office apps. Download and install it and you should be able to open and print Word .docs on the OS X side of your hard drive.
