Unable to Print anything to Canon imagePROGRAF iPF8000S from 10.6.7

Do I need to downgrade to 10.6.6?
Anyone else having this issue - seemed to work just fine with my old MAC with 10.5.4, but since the company upgraded to a new MAC with 10.6.7, I am unable to get communication working to the Prograf wide format printer.
I can ping the printer from the new MAC, and print from PC's in the office just fine, but every job just hangs up in the queue from the new MAC....ERGGH!
I am using the 10.4-10.6 driver from canon (version 2.30).
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Please help - I am backlogged with poster print orders and only have design software on the MAC.

Some Canon iPF users on this forum have reported that disabling 'Fast Graphic Process' has helped them with printing from 10.6.7.
This is located in the Main menu, under the Advanced Settings tab.

  • Using an HP officejet pro 8500 wireless printer and unable to print anything web based/inte​rnet

    checked wireless connection and it is fine but unable to print anything that is web based like an airline itinerary. McAfee says it is not the firewall. Any ideas?

    Are you able to print other things than web based ? Like word documents, etc.
    What behaviour you may see while printing from the web?
    As well, did you tried the HP Smart Print toolbr Application?

    i am unable to print anything while using firefox as my browser !

    Hi Philip,
    This could be an issue with some corrupt print preferences. In your toolbar go to about:config and reset all of your print.preferences. This could hopefully help!

  • I am unable to print anything from any website.

    As of a week or so ago, I cannot print anything from Firefox. I'm using FF 3.6.13, and Max OS X 10.6.6 on a 3+ year-old (Intel Core 2 Duo) iMac. I'm connected via ethernet to a Brother laser printer. I am unaware of any change in any element of the computer's hardware or software since before the problem appeared, except the recent OS X update. (See below for why I don't think that's the problem.)
    In all other respects Firefox appears to be working correctly: I can open pages, navigate the sites as usual, etc.
    I don't get a blank sheet of paper from the printer--I get no response from the printer at all, print preview gives no response, and pdf's created from the print dialog box are blank.
    I reset all of the print settings in about:config. No help. I deleted Firefox and all my preferences, reinstalled FF from the Mozilla site; no help.
    The only extension I've added is a dictionary, which has not been updated or altered since long before the problem appeared.
    The error console has warnings: "Warning: Unknown property '(blah, blah, blah)'. Declaration dropped. Source file: https//addons.mozilla.org/media//css/zamboni/z-min.css?build=cd68cc7" where '(blah, blah, blah)' is "text-overflow", "border-radius", "box-shadow", "-moz-transition", et al.
    Error console has a message: "api-secure.recaptcha.net : server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555". Following up on that didn't do me any good either. The description of that issue seemed to focus on sites not opening, which is not my problem.
    My wife's MacBook is running the same version of Firefox and OS X (including last week's update to Snow Leopard), and prints to the same printer over the same LAN. (Later model processor and different firmware, though.) No problems printing, just like my iMac was behaving last week.

  • Unable to print with my Canon PIXMA IP 4700 and JetDirect network appliance

    After many tries I decided to post my question.
    I have a Canon PIXMA IP 4700 connected to the network with a Jetdirect 175X box. So I tried to add a new printer with a "HP Jetdirect Socket" port. I have previously installed the driver from the official website. The test page is staying on the spooler.
    I also tried with LPD port (supported by the Jetdirect box) and IPP but nothing is working.
    When the printer is directly connected with USB, it's working fine. Printing from my others Windows computers is working fine too since many months.
    Thank your for your help.

    Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Your problem is being caused by the Canon driver. It cannot be used when the printer is connected to the USB port of a 3rd party print server, or if shared by Windows.
    The solution is to use a driver like Gutenprint or PrintFab. Gutenprint is preferred because it is free (it ships with OS X) however the iP4700 is not listed as a supported model. The iP4600 is listed so you could try selecting this model in the Print Using menu (shown as Canon PIXMA iP4600 - Gutenprint v5.2.3). If the iP4600 Gutenprint driver does not work that well then you could look at using [PrintFab|http://www.printfab.net] which does support the iP4700. It costs €49 but there is a 30 day trial so at least you can try it before committing to buying.
    Another option would be to use a Airport device, like the Express, instead of the Jetdirect print server. With the printer connected to its USB port you can then use the Canon iP4700 driver on the Mac.

  • I am unable to print to a canon cir2880 copier using 10.7.4

    I have a macbook pro computer running Os X ver 10.7.4 and I can't find a driver to work with a canon cir2880 printer. Is there a solution?

    Hi There,
    I have a MacBook Pro OS X Lion 10.7.5 I have recently installed the ir C2880 drivers for my Mac and everything "Seems" ok but when i go to print it just prints gibberish. Any clues on how i can fix this.
    When I installed the printer i put in the network location and it automatically detected it as a "Generic Postscript Printer" however if i change the driver it no longer prints.
    HELP!!!

  • I am unable to print anything since installing the latest driver for my epson stylus rx640. I have followed epson's advice by doing repair permissions, but I still can't print anything. Can anybody suggest anything?

    Can't print with my Epson stylus RX 640 since the latest apple software update for epson. Since then I completely reinstalled the printer following epson's advice. It worked. But today, I am trying to print some photos and nothing happens. Epson suggest resetting and then doing some repair permissions. Done that and still no joy. Can anyone help please.

    contact Epson again and ask them about using a generic Gutenprint driver; I read in one of the threads here - but can't find it right now - about a problem with your model printer. Since Epson has not updated its driver to work with SL on this older model, it appears using a generic driver does work. You might also try searching for those threads by typing your model number into the search box.

  • I've unchecked the pop up blocker but still can't print an email. The print box pops up and immediately disappears and I am unable to print anything. How do I fix this?

    I am new to firefox having installed it at the recommendation of a friend. So far -- very frustrated. I need to be able to print email and can't. Also, I use roboform and it appears that the autosave popup doesn't work in firefox. Now what?

    If there are problems with updating then do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Unable to print anything under the Firefox browser. I get "An unknown error occurred while printing" each time I try. What Can I do?

    I can, however, print when using Internet Explorer. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it to see if that would clear up the problem.....it didn't. Not sure what to do now.

    With the latest updates FF 19 BETA and Acrobat X. The new one with the black PDF screen), I'm having difficulty too printing to Adobe PDF. System Win 7 x 64.
    Printing to physical printers not an issue.
    No errors, but (Not Responding either in FF or Acrobat.) Printing to the PDF printer directly sometimes works. Using the work-around fast enough, it seems to always work.
    I found a work-around:
    Goto Print Preview
    Select Print
    Type in your file name
    IMMEDIATELY press OK and Minimize Firefox.
    All of the progress boxes/windows are getting confused otherwise. With FF opened as a normal page, there are too many different progress boxes.
    Acrobat has one, the windows print driver has one, FF seems to have one and they all can't be on top.
    They will if FF is minimized.
    Incidentally if FF is killed, the "Creating Adobe PDF" shows its face from being hidden.
    I did reset Firefox.
    This is seriously messed up now. It used to work fine until the last round of updates from M$, Adobe and FF.

  • Unable to print anything off internet w/file-print/nothing happens/but internet explorer does work/but I use firefox more/please help?

    when I find something on internet/e-mail/and I go to push on file/scoll down to print/all that happens is nothing.but when I;m on internet explorer it works ok<I use firefox all the time though/is there some kind of setting that I need to set to be able to use my printer on firefox?

    Try configuring the printer. You can usually access the printer setup menu by clicking Print on a web page, then click "Properties" when your printer options appear.
    Set the page size to A4 in there and maybe choose other settings such as those I've ringed in red in the screenshot. This is my own printer.
    Unfortunately, I'm off on vacation from today and my flight departs in about 6 hrs time, so I won't be able to respond again until mid-July. But I'm sure one of the other guys will be able to takeover if your problem persists.

  • Can I print to a canon ir c3220 from an iPad? If so, how?

    I'm a newbie to the iPad and a bit of a Luddite when it comes to tech... I have a canon ir c3220 at home and want to print to it. The printer does not have wireless, it connects to a wireless router/modem via cable. all other computers print ok.

    iOS devices can only print directly to AirPrint printers. All AirPrint printers are wireless but not all wireless printers are capable of using AirPrint.
    To print directly from an iPad / iPhone you will need an AirPrint - enabled printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac running handyPrint (donation - supported). The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
    You can also buy this standalone print server:
    http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
    These options enable you to use any printer available to your network, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades.
    Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device.

  • Print wirelessly on canon pixma MP780 from Macbook Pro

    Hi
    I have a Canon Pixma MP780 and want to know if I can set it up to print wirelessly from my Macbook Pro.  I would appreciate any advice if you know how to do this.  Thanks very much.

    I believe you should be able to print wirelessly using your MBP and printer. However, you will want to visit the Canon home site and download the current drivers and firmware for your printer. Once you've done this, I hope you'll post back with your results.

    You're going to need both drivers and firmware.

  • Unable to print to Win Server2008 R2 queue from Lion10.7.2, printer status gets paused or asks username and password for printer

    Hi Everyone,
    I have set up a print queue for HP CP5225dn on Win Server2008 R2 on a shared domain . When I install a print driver on Mac 10.7.2 Lion it sometimes ask for a 'user name & password' for the printer which has not been set by us on the printer.
    Second issue I don't know how it reached to the point that I was able to send the job through but as soon as it starts to connect to the printer 'it turns the status to printer paused' or can't connect to the printer.
    Printer works well on 'Bonjour' printing so I don't have any doubts on the printer driver. But HP doesn't have the drivers for CP5225dn for Lion 10.7.2.
    I have to configure the printer via the queue. Please advise any workarounds.
    Thanks
