Unable to print to Canon iR-Adv C5045 from MacBook Pro that is connected to Windows computer and shared on the network
I am unable to print to a Canon iR-Adv C5045 from a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.4) that is connected to Windows NT computer and shared on the company network. I am connected to the network by ethernet.
I was able to add the printer manually by going to Advanced, Windows printer via spoolss, smb://computer name/printer name and used the Canon iR-ADV C5045/5051 driver.
When I print it appears to be printing but nothing comes out. I checked the completed jobs from the Print Queue and the job is listed. Checked the print log on the printer and it isn't listed. Is there a different driver I should be using for this configuration?
You may not have a choice as to what driver you can use. If the ADV C5045 only has the default UFR2 printer kit, then you will have to use the UFR2 driver - which is what you are using now. If you can access the copier, press the Counter Check button on the control panel. Then on the display you will see an entry labelled Check Device Configuration. Select this and scroll down through the pages. You are looking for an entry called PS. If you see it then the Canon does have the optional Postscript printer kit enabled and this will let you use an alternate driver. One suggestion would be to create the printer again using the same setting that you have done already but this time select the Generic Postscript driver included with the OS rather than use the Canon driver. This will help to determine if the driver is the cause.
If there is no PS option you will have to use the UFR2 driver and this could be the problem, as the Canon drivers don't always work well on a Mac via a Windows share. As a test, are you able to create a print queue directly to the Canon rather than via the Windows share? If you can, then this will let you check if the driver currently installed will work, as there can be settings on the copier that can block/stop you from printing. Assuming that you can print to the Canon with a direct connection from the Mac, then we can work on getting the printing via the shared queue. But if it doesn't print directly from the Mac, then it confirms that it may not be the server and more to do with the copier.

I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Please??? :-)
Hi Kelly,
As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
Start with the section titled Check the network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Printer stopped responding to wireless transmission from MacBook Pro.
Product: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium
Running MAC OS X 10.7.4
My printer displayed a message that there was a software update for eprint available that I said to go ahead and install by using the touch pad on the control panel..
Since that time my printer will no longer print files I send via my wireless network from my MacBook pro. However, it does print from another computer which is windows based.
Printer test says it is connected to the wireless network with the same IP address as it has always had and the correct SSID fopr the network
If I click on the HP printer icon in the Dock, it says the printer is ready and tells me I am low on one ink cartridge.
When I try to send a file to the printer to print, I get the drop down menu to select the preset formats and manner of printing. Then I get the indication that the job is in process with the number 1 in a red circle on the printer Icon on in the dock, When I click on the icon the Printer Job menu box opens and the following sequence occurs:
1. Menu says "looking for computer"
2. Menu says printing job 1% complete, barber pole scrolls
3. Menu says printer not responding
If I click on the "Open printer Utility" button, almost everything is indicated to be unknown including IP address, model serial number. Two items have info identified. Driver version is shown as Inkjet 3 Driver 3.3.0 and IK number is shown as 371.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Canon iR-ADV C5045 - "An error has occurred.: -50"
At work, I just got an iMAC i5 quadcore 27" to work with. (It's the only mac in the office). I am trying to connect it with the printer network. I downloaded the necessary drivers from the Canon site "Canon iR-ADV C5045/5051 UFR II".
However, when I try to print, I get the follow message:
*Canon UFR II Printer Driver*
*An error occurred.: -50*
Is there something I am doing wrong?1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
2. Select the Canon in the printers list and click the minus button
3. Click the plus button to add a new printer
4. Select the IP icon in the toolbar
5. Change the drop menu to Line Printer Daemon - LPD.
6. Enter the IP address of the Canon
7. Leave the Queue name blank
8. Change the Name to something helpful, such as Canon Color Printer
9. Leave the Location blank or enter something that will help you
10. In the Print Using menu, change to 'Select printer software' and then type C5045 to short list the installed printers
11. With the correct model selected click Add
12. Don't worry about the installable options window when it appears. Just click OK to complete the queue creation.
You are now ready to print to the C5045 using the LPD protocol. -

It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.
Please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue. Contacted Canon's tech support for instance? -

Since my last update for Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 I have been unable to print to either my HP or Lexmark printers! Everything is connected but I get an "idle" message in the queue. I have "Reset printer system" and re-added these printers. No luck. Help?
Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

my ipod touch has a usb cable picture with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. the ipod will not connect to a computer and is unable to be turned off as there is no red power slider when the power button is pressed. what can i do to fix this?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I want to connect my Canon EOS 7D to my MacBook Pro and use it as a Monitor
Hello,
Anyone know how I can turn my MacBook Pro into a Monitor for my Canon EOS 7D HDSLR camera?
Thanks for any advice,
fsg
NYCI don't think you can without some sort of capture card (very expensive, and because most MacBook Pros don't have a card, you need to use the FW800). MBP's Thunderbolt port only sends video signals out, you can't attach an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort cable from your camera to the MBP and expect to show video.
You could try a utility like Sofortbild. -
my ipad2 is unable to find wireless network(s). while at home I am able to connect my MacBook and iPhone to network but am unable to connect iPad. I have restarted the device multiple times and even reset the network and all settings but still no luck
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
