TA25225 Problems printing on Canon Printer

I recently purchased a Canon Pixma mg2120 printer to use with my iMac. The printer works fine in copy mode, but when i try to print, I get a message "printer not connected" when it is connected. Also, I have not been able to scan anything. When I try to scan it's like the computer does not even see the scanner. I am using a usb cable. Should I be using another type of cable?

Go to > Canon U.S.A / PIXMA MG2120, select the OS X that you are running and try that driver.

Printing to Canon Printer IR c2880 - Problem

Printer appears to be online and functioning (IP address works fine and html access shows the printer operational)
attempted to connect via printer setup (sees the printer, added the printer using the IPP, selected the Canon driver v4.0 for the printer
looks like I can see all the functionality for the printer, but it never prints. Just goes into "PAUSE" mode every time.
It's 2013 and I really don't want to delve into the bowels of print driver diagnostics. What options / solutions can folks offer ?
thanks

Yep...tried several settings. I don't see any error messages. I still get the same response when trying to send to the printer. All print jobs go into pause mode on the computer. Never seems to make it into the print queue on the printer. Worked with dozens of printers in other organizations. Not seen this one before.
where can I find diagnostics to figure this out (all the config tools from Canon are built for Windows...nc)
thanks

Can't print on Canon printer since 10.8.2

We have a Canon i-SENSYS LBP 5050n printer. When I upgraded my MB Pro to Mountain Lion, I could not print anymore, until we found a printer driver at Canon Australia's web site, version 3.55. Updating to 10.8.2 again leaves me without the chance to print: the document stays in the printer queue forever: for a while it looks like it migh porint, then it goes into pause mode. Resuming does not help either.
Where can I find a printer driver that allows me to print again, or what else can I do?
Thanks for your help,
Wladimir

Thanks a lot, Pahu, for your help. I just read the other postings, which seem to cover exactl the same problem as I have. I did check for similar threads before posting my question, but obviously I have missed that oen; sorry.
The CAPT backgrounder is running, then entry in System Information > Printers > Canon LBP 5050n > URI is cnbma://localhost:59687 and still it is not working.
Here are the contents of my ccpd.conf file:
# Canon Printer Daemon for CUPS Configuration Data
<Path>
# CUPS configuration files Path
# Default /
CUPS_ConfigPath /
# LOG Directory Path
#LogDirectoryPath /var/log/CCPD/
</Path>
# Printer entries
# Mapping each "Printer-Name" to "Printer Device Port".
# The "Printer-Name" has to be identical to the CUPS printer queue name.
# For example, if you prepare a printer named "XXXX" as a CUPS printer
# queue name, and the printer is connected to the USB port "/dev/usb/lp0",
# you can use the following three lines example just by removing the
# comment symbol "#" of each line.
#<Printer XXXX>
#DevicePath /dev/usb/lp0
#</Printer>
<Ports>
# socket port
UI_Port 59787
# backend data port
PDATA_Port 59687
</Ports>
Some additiona information: the poster of the question in the other thread you informed me about, 6andalf, write that ever since updating to Mountain Lion he cannot print. The same happened to me, until I found CAPT 355 on Canon Australia's web site, as mentioned. When I updated to 10.8.1 I could still print, until I installed 10.8.2.

Margin problem when printing with canon printer

When I try to print a pages document on my canon pixma ip4500 printer (which they sold me at the apple store when i bought the laptop), the bottom margin does not appear. There is a space only about half an inch under the last line of text. Everything looks fine on the screen, but i cant get to print it with a bottom margin. and i don't even know how to set it manually...
ps, the printer isnt set for a 8 1/2 by 14 sheet, it really is for a 8 1/2 by 11
Help me please!

That’s going to depend on what the document consists of. If it’s a single element such as a graphic or PDF, reduce the size. If it’s text, you can use a smaller point size, slightly reduce paragraph spacing, make a headline smaller, etc. If it’s text and graphic, reduce the size of the graphic(s) a little. But first, set your document margins to agree with your printer margins.

Can no longer print to Canon printer connected to Airport Extreme

My Canon MP830 is connected to my Airport Extreme. Bonjour on my Windows 7 Acer laptop sees and installs the printer. I have been printing to the MP830 successfully from wired and wireless computers on my network this way for around a year. Today, I can no longer print to the MP830 unless I connect it directly to a USB port on my Acer. Bonjour can still see and install the MP830 when it's connected to the Airport Extreme, but I can't print to the MP830.
Any ideas?

Sounds a bit like a problem being discussed in this thread:

I suspect some kind of update is at fault. Like you, my printer/base station setup had been working fine until recently.

Printing with Canon printer, colors do not match at all... Help

Hello there, I have a Canon pixma 4300, every time I print somthing with a logo or a picture on it, the colors do not match.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Is there a new driver or a solution to this problem, this, seems to me, is really abnormal.

This is a common problem, and it is very hard to get a complete colour match, between any printer and the screen, due to the differing nature of the way both create their colours.
First off, you should check that your printer is properly calibrated with the correct ICC profile, and make sure your screen is also calibrated. Fur more info on this there is a PDF which explains it in more detail (Written for Tiger, but the principles are the same with Leopard.
http://images.apple.com/pro/pdf/ColorMgmtinTiger.pdf
sRGB would be a good starting point, as most printers can handle this profile. Also, you did not mention how different the colours were? If for example yellow is printing an off yellow/brown or yellow/green, then it is definately the colour profile, if it is printing yellow as red, well then that is something else entirely.
Hope this helps, as chances are, the printer is not faulty, it just isnt set up right. Also, your images stand a better chance of printing correctly if they are created in the CMYK colourspace, not RGB. Especially true of logos.

Problems printing with Canon Pixma ip 2600

I'm having a strange printing issue with my newly installed Canon printer. If I print from Mail or Print Explosion, the document comes out very pale (black is light gray, red is pale pink, etc.) It almost looks like I was printing in grayscale, altho colors do print out. When I print from Word or Excel, the documents look fine. Has anyone got a solution for this? The tech support at Canon has no idea what may be the problem.
I had a similar problem with another Canon printer; one Excel workbook would always print pale. All the others were fine.
Thanks!

When I print a photo to my epson printer, it comes out larger than the original photo - so the photo prints beyond the borders. Tried readjusting all sorts of things but nothing helps. I had this same problem with my Canon. any ideas?

Printing Problem on Canon Printer

Hi Gurus,
Greetings and Thanks in advance!
I have problem in Invoice printing on new Canon LBP 2900 B printer. Whenever I print on this printer the one character from right side does not print. Whereas if the same printing we are doing on HP Laserjet printer it comes perfectly.
I tried to create a new output device through SPAD in which I have used following:
Device Type: SWIN Windows printing via SAPlpd (since i didnt find Canon printer in the list so i used windows standard)
Device Class: Standard Printer
Host Spool Access Method: G:Front End Printing with control Tech.
Host Printer: _Default
But it was giving the same problem. Please suggest the solution.
Regards
Rajesh

Adobe Photoshop CS6 and Canon printer problem!!

Use Photoshop CS6 to edit and print (try to print) to a new Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer. Photoshop is up to date and the Mac runs OS 10.8.5 - Canon printer driver is current at ver. 11.7.1.
When I print from Photoshop to the Pro-100 (let's say a 4X6 landscape snapshot to 4X6 borderless paper) the printer starts up and moves the paper out about 4 inches and then prints the
first two inches of the image, stops and ejects the paper!. I've tried different versions of printer the printer driver and made sure every things is up to date. However, I can print from MS Word,
Nikon Capture NX2, or Canon's own Print Studio Pro and it works fine. Canon is no help because if it works OK with their Print Studio Pro then it's not their issue - I tend to agree with them.
The same thing happens print from Photoshop to 5X7 or 8X10 paper - it gets ejected so far and then only prints part of the image. I've searched the Internet and posted in Forums but can't find
where any one would have the same problem. What I'm hoping for here is someone at from Adobe who's knows Photoshop tech stuff will post here with suggestion because there is no more
phone support for Photoshop CS6. I'd like to really keep this printer and get Photoshop to work with it but if I can't I'm going to offer it up free to a good home! JM Davis

Thanks for your answer, indeed this fixed the problem. Quite stupid I did not see this myself

Duplex Printing on Canon IX6560 Problem

i've got problem with duplex printing on canon ix6560, i've installed the latest driver from canon website (11.7.1.0) for OSX Maverick (10.9.5). what is the solution ?

First, check the printer specification to make sure it's capable of duplex printing. If it is, there should be a setting in the Finishing tab of the print dialog. Reportedly, Canon tech support sometimes advises customers to uninstall the existing software before installing an update.

10.6.7 update and now Canon printer problems

I had the automatic 10.6.7 update two days ago and everything is fine except now I have printer issues with Canon MF8350. I can still scan, I can print from Safari, I can print from some .pdf but not others, I am unable to print anything from Word - they all come out as blank pages. Updates from Microsoft and Canon didn't help.
If you don't know, anyone at least know how I can uninstall the update? I know how to find the updates list, but not how to get it out.

I just want to let you all know that I fixed my printing problem.
I could not add my printer under the System Preference>Print & Fax after I did the reset. But I can add the printer back to my Mac Pro by connecting the USB cable to the tower. When I connected my USB cable back to the Apple Extreme. The printer was offline. I did so many different thing still not working. Then I go the the discussion forum on Airport Express and ... I also followed a lot of advises there. Then someone give out a link on Apple support. I following the advise half way still printer was offline. Then I went to my Mac Book and to reset the printer, and add printer again, and click share this printer. I went back to my Mac Pro, and try print a page, I choose nearby printer (there was never has this option for me before). It has another printer icon with Canon MX310 series-1. Bingo, it printed from my Mac Pro also. I have two printer icons on my Mac Pro, one is the same name as the Mac book. I was very happy. It was 4 in the morning. Well, finally I could sleep good.
I am still not sure exactly what the step to make my printer work again (Trial and Error). But I learn a lot by reading advises on this forum.
