Re: Trouble with peripherals (CanoScan LIDE 30 Scanner & HP LaserJet 1020)

The Canon CanoScan LIDE 30 scanner didn't have any autodetection, so I want to the Canon Web site to look for drivers. I grabbed the drivers, packaged in a .dmg file, from Canon. Running the setup file, I was a bit perplexed what it wanted me to do, so I installed the drivers in the Applications directory and rebooted the system when prompted.
That did nothing - I still couldn't access the scanner. I tried a couple other places - root of the hard drive, /Library/Image Capture... nothing.
I'm at a complete loss here, and couldn't figure out how to do it.
And the printer.
I hooked up the HP LaserJet 1020 to the Mac. Nothing happened, so I went into the Print & Fax System Utility to set it up. The printer browser was able to detect it, but there was no listing for the HP LaserJet 101 in the driver selections. Hewlett Packard doesn't offer Mac drivers for the printer.
Anything I can do to get these two peripherals working?

The Canon CanoScan LIDE 30 scanner usually installs a file "N124u-buttonmanager" in your Login items (actually the standard install used to put the "buttonmanager" for both the LiDE 20 and LiDE 30 scanners, see this User Tip: kmosx2: Looking for devices matching vendor..).
Their more recent software is better behaved: I have an all in one, and there are no Login items, everything is installed in a "Canon Utilities" folder inside "/Applications".
So, if the software you downloaded includes a "buttonmanager", make sure you choose the right one (see the User Tip) and put it in your login items (System Preferences > Accounts).

  • I"m not able to scan a single negative with my CanoScan 5600F scanner that I just bought.

    I'm trying to scan an old black and white negative. Unfortunately, it is not in a strip of six as seems to be indicated in the manual, although it doesn't say specifically it HAS to be a strip of six.
    I opened MP Navigator Ex. Following are the settings I used:
    Film
    Film type: Black and white negative film
    Resolution 4800 dpi. I also used 1200 dpi
    I put the negative on the far end of the film holder.
    I clicked on scan and got the following message at both resolutions:
    Cannot scan for these reasons:
    -The original may not be set correctly
    -The Protective Sheet may be put in place
    -The lamp may not be warming up
     (it needs a few minutes for adjusting lamp on low temperature)
    Scanner driver will be closed
    Code: 2,178,0
    I've scanned negatives with another scanner some years ago and never had this trouble. Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    The same problem occurred on my iPad. Everything has current updates. Created new document the previous day and now unable to open. Hope there is a immediate solution. The reason I don't like software changes is the priority for reliable software nearly 99.99% of the time. Who knew? The reason I chose this software because hoping it also had the 99.99% reliability.

  • Trouble with printing wirelessly to HP color laserjet 3550

    I am unable to print wirelessly to my HP. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    That is a non-postscript, USB printer. HP's driver is for USB only, because it bypasses CUPS (called a monolithic driver).
    Easiest way to get a CUPS driver is install hpijs + foomatic + ghostscript:

  • Slooow scanning with CanoScan Lide 35

    I've recently noticed a considerable speed drop when scanning with my CanoScan Lide 35. It's supposed to be USB 2.0 and when using system profiler it gives the speed at 480 Mbs, but it seems more like USB 1.1. when I'm scanning. It used to be much faster and the problem really started a short while back. Could it be caused by the Mac OS X 10.4.7 upgrade? I'm using Photoshop (9.0.1.) and CanoScan Toolbox when scanning. The scanner behaves the same whatever port I use. I've updated to the latest drivers. Anyone got a clue?
    PowerMac G5 1.8 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I would prefer to see a backup routine, followed by erase and restore, then reapply the 10.4.7 update AND you may want to reinstall Canon drivers. You could just clone to another drive and boot from that. SuperDuper can be used in demo mode for a simple clone process.
    MacFixit had a lengthy, in-depth series of 4? articles on preferences and plists and checking for corrupt prefs (I tend to rely on Applejack along with Preferential Treatment - there are also some other tools mentioned in the tutorial).
    I have an MDD so I have added and tried a couple different USB2 controllers, and someone else mentioned that while the latest Sonnet Allegro USB2 is working fine for me (no issues, no problem with deep sleep etc) they were having a problem.
    My own first recommendation with troubleshooting hardware is to always start up in Open Firmware and use the reset-nvram[/ib] command.

  • I have a CanoScan Lide 700F scanner ,how do I scan Black and white neg.and turn them into positives?

    I am scaning all old pictures, docts,  slides ,but I have alot of b&w negs verious sizes, how can I turn  them into b&w positives??

    Hi Teddy.
    The MP Navigator EX software that was bundled with your CanoScan LiDE 700F can be used to scan your black and white negatives.  To use the MP Navigator, please follow these steps:
     1.  Start MP Navigator EX and open the Navigation Mode screen.
     2.  Point to Scan/Import and click Film.
     3.  Place the film on the Platen.
     4.  Click Specify... to set the document size and scanning resolution as required.
     5.  When setting is completed, click OK.
    Important
    Film may not be scanned correctly when Film Type in the Scan Settings dialog box is set to Auto. In that case, select the type of film in Film Type and scan again.
    Note
    To scan black and white film, it is recommended that you select Black and White Negative Film or Black and White Positive Film for Film Type in the Scan Settings dialog box.
     6.  Click Scan.  Preview scan starts.  When preview scan of the film is completed, the preview image appears.
    Important
    If a message for calibration appears, remove the film, then place the Film Adapter Unit over the first frame of the Film Guide and click OK.
     7.  When the calibration is completed, follow the on-screen instructions to load the film into the Film Guide, then click OK.
    Note
    Preview image does not appear when the Preview before scanning checkbox is not selected in the Scan Settings dialog box. The scanned images appear directly in the Thumbnail window.
     8.  Select the checkbox of the frame and click Scan.  When scanning is completed, the Scan Complete dialog box opens.
     9.  Select Scan or Exit. To scan another frame, place the Film Adapter Unit over the frame you want to scan, then select Scan. Select Exit to end.
    The scanned images appear in the Thumbnail window.
    10.  Edit the scanned images as required.  Use Edit Tools to rotate images, select a part of an image, etc.
    Note
    First select images to edit. (Selected images are outlined in orange.) Drag the mouse or use Shift + arrow keys to select multiple images.
    11.  Save the scanned images.

  • Problems with using Canon LiDE 210 and OSX 10.7.4

    I am getting nowhere with installing the Canon LiDE 210 scanner software on my 2010 MBP. All I get when I try to scan is "insufficient memory". I can scan using Image Capture and with the trial VueScan software so the problem looks as if it is something to do with the Canon software or the way that it installs on the MBP. Has anyone else had a similar problem or can anyone suggest a fix? Many thanks

    Hellooo, I realise this thread is a year old and yet I'm having some real difficulty, hopefully this will fall on someones ears...
    Firstly I have a mac mini bought recently and running on Mountain Lion 10.8.3 I tried downloading what is apparently the most up to date drvier and mp navigator for use with the CanoScan LiDE 210 meaning, that both the driver and mp navigator are compatible with Mountain Lion. Here is the following link I used that was forwarded to me by Canon:
    http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/contents/ASIA/EN/0100434402.html
    http://support-asia.canon-asia.com/contents/ASIA/EN/0200153502.html
    I install both of the downloads, plug in the scanner, and nothing... no noise, no beep nothing to say that it is on. I try and open the scanner through system preferences-printer/scanner-canoscan icon yet I am then presented with the message; "failed to open a session on this device"
    Strange, I call canon back and they do not know what else to suggest apart from all the usual trouble shooting, the type that is very patronising and annoying... did you click the icon and press scan, did you click the install button after downloading the software... the sort of thing that might otherwise result in the beating, of ones own face with the phone
    At the end of this call, and after forwarding me a couple more useless links to unworkable downloads they say that it must be the product, and that I should contact the seller for a replacement.
    So I do, I contact Amazon, I get my replacement and voila, exactly the same problem.
    I even try getting it going using my mbp which is on snow leopard, which means I can use the installation disc that it is packed with it, it makes a noise, it sounds like its turning on but then when I click "open scanner" ... nothing, no option to scan, no acknowledgement of the device other than the icon itself in system preferences.
    Does anyone have any experience of this issue, does anyone know how I might resolve it?
    Many thanks,
    Jeff

  • Canoscan LiDE 25 Only Scans at Low-Resolution

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, I can't get a high-res scan out of Image Capture with my Canoscan LiDE 25. I've downloaded the 11.031 drivers from Canon's site but didn't improve anything.
    I open image capture, choose the advanced options, let it run the overview scan, turn off the "Detect Separate Items" checkbox, resize the border to the part I want to scan, choose a scan location and filename, then turn up the resolution to 150 DPI. The scan runs really fast and then create a ~125 x 90 pixel image from the ~3" x 2" graphic I'm scanning. The same thing happens when I try to do a "Import from scanner" in Preview.
    The Canon tools don't work with the latest driver version; anyone have an idea about how to get high-res scans again? (Besides buying VueScan…)

    I know it's a great program — back when I worked in academic technology I convinced management to switch our computer labs to VueScan for both Mac and Windows.
    However, considering I scan maybe 3 times a year, it seems there should be a solution for basic scanning that doesn't require a $40 license.

  • Canoscan Lide 200 will not start

    After upgrading to Yosemite, when I plug in my USB-driven Canon scanner (into my Macbook Air from 2010) I get an error message advising that "a problem" occurred. Anyone else finding that a Canoscan Lide scanner will not start in Yosemite? Any suggestions as how to fix this situation? Thanks in advance.

    Many thanks as well from me.
    I was having a similar problem after upgrading to Yosemite with a USB CanoScan LiDE 700F. Don't think I had to install any drivers under Mavericks. Under Yosemite it just appears dead. Nothing ever happens. But, did see this error in Console whenever I plugged in the scanner. Then via a search found the above post.

  • HT3669 Using/installing scanner Canoscan LIDE 50 with Mac OS 10.8.2

    How can I use my canoscan lide 50 with my macbook pro retina (2012), which is running Mac OS 10.8.2?

    It would appear that you cannot use this scanner on 10.8. Canon has not produced an ICA or TWAIN scanner driver. 10.8 does not list the LiDE 50 in its CanonIJScanner2 package. And VueScan states that to use it, you must first install the Canon TWAIN scanner driver. But the installer for this model was last written for 10.4 - meaning it requires support for PPC chipset which Apple ceased with 10.7.

  • Will a CanoScan LIDE 210 scanner work with OSX 10.11 beta?

  • Upgrade from Mac OSX 10.4 to 10.5 + Canoscan Lide 30 Scanner + X11

    I have just changed from PC to Mac (iBook G4). The iBook is already set up and workiing properly. Some questions for an inexperienced Mac user:
    1. Is it worthwhile changing to OSX 10.5? Will the personal setting be automatically updated or will it led to the inevitable Microsoft crashes?
    2. have downloaded drivers (*.dmg) for canoscan lide 30 and tried to install it. The scanner does not work. Which programmes do I need?
    3. How/where do I get the latest version of the X11 software for OpenOffice? The downloads from the internet cannot be installed because of the new versions of OSX 10.4.
    Thanks in advance for the help.
    Kindest reagrds

    1. Which iBook model do you have? You need a minimum of 867 mhz, 512MB of memory,
    DVD drive for installation and 9GB of available disk space. Doing an upgrade should preserve your user settings. Is it worthwhile? Only you can answer that. Frankly I would stay with Tiger 10.4.11 with your machine.
    2. You may need to take that up with Canon.
    3.Note 10.4 customers can install X11 by using the Tiger DVD installer disk. See here:

  • Upgraded to OS X 10.9 and now cannot connect to Canoscan LIDE 90 Scanner. Cant find a new driver anywhere. Any ideas??

    I have upgraded to OS X 10.9 and now I cannot connect to my Canoscan LIDE 90 Scanner. Cant find a new driver anywhere. Any ideas??

    Like Dan White, I have found that I can still run the Lide 90 under Mavericks. As Dan says, the buttons on the front of the scanner don't work but I rarely if ever used them.
    I have just tested the scanner using Acrobat Pro and it loads up the Scangear software to capture the scan, with no problems at all. I didn't have to reinstall anything as it was all there already and working in Mountain Lion. Photoshop CS 5.1 is different; it does not recognise the scanner, presumably because it can't find a TWAIN driver for it. Image Capture does not recognise the scanner either, but I don't have the latest (10.8) Canon MP Explorer and Explorer Opener software installed.
