Why can't I print from my MacBook Pro to my Canon MP640?

Its a wireless connection, and each time I try to print after about 5 seconds of "Printing" message, I get "Paused" message.
Any help with trouble shooting greatly appreciated.

I suggest you delete the current print queue and add the print queue again. So, open Print & Fax, select the MP640 printer in the list and press the minus button underneath the Printer list. Then click the + next to the minus and select the Default view. The MP640 will appear immediately as a Bonjour Scanner. You need to wait several more seconds until you see a second MP640, this time showing 'canonijnetwork' in the Kind column.
If the MP640 printer or scanner is not visible in the Default view then please reply.

  • Why can't i airdrop from my macbook pro (OSX 10.9.5) to my ipad air (IOS 8.0.2)

    Wow, that's very disappointing.
    I see that you can transfer between two Macs but not, as you say, between older Macs and iOS.
    For others, the following is from Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed and your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model. To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need one of the Mac models listed below and OS X Lion or later.
    MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
    MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
    iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    *The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.

  • Cannot print from my macbook pro on wireless canon printer mixed enviorment

    Hi,
    I recently bought a macbook pro and added it to my home network.  I printed wirelessly to my canon mx870 fine when i first set up.  Now, it will not print.  It does thru the motions of printing but nothing comes out and there is no error.  If i plug the printer in it works.  I have a pc set up to the wireless printer as well.  Not sure if that makes a difference.  That still works.   Any assistance would be appreciated!

    What OS are you running?
    Try resetting the printing system.

  • How do you setup a canon mp620 to print from a Macbook Pro?

    How can i print from my MacBook Pro with a canon mp620 printer? I have the printer setup with a PC via USB and want to add the MacBook as a new computer and print wirelessly. I have tried the installation cd and updated drivers from canon website but it still wont work.

    I have managed to get my working. Firstly, I googled the CUPS drivers for the printer and then downloaded those from canons website. I then went to print and scan in system preferences and noticed that the printer had appeared there. I believe it was those drivers that made the difference but i was fiddling for hours before that so i cant be 100% sure how i got it to work.

  • How do I use AirPort Extreme to be able print from my MacBook Pro AND a PC. If I connect printer into AirPort, I can only print on laptop. If printer is connected to PC hard drive, I can only print on desk top. How do I configure this to make both print?

    If you have not already done so, your chances will really improve if you....
    1) Connect the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
    2) Download and install Bonjour Print Services for Windows on the PC

  • Why can't I print from my ipad?

    I've had my iPad for almost a year now and I like it a lot. It looks very good, it performs very well even though I'm far from reaching my goal of only taking my ipad to school, nothing else.
    One important reason why this won't be the case for quite a while still is that I can't print from the iPad.
    Let me explain. I make quite a number of worksheets. Being a teacher this is one of the things you do so that the students have something to write on and do exercises. Over the years there have been many of these and my initial thought was to put them all on the iPad and print them when needed. But imagine my surprise when I found out that printing from an iPad seems to be near impossible.
    Other colleagues of mine got themselves cheap EEPCs and they work fine. They can access the local printer easily printing whatever they wish. But I can't do that! Unless my school buys a new Air-thingy printer from HP I just won't print there! And that just *****.
    I've bought a sleek and expensive machine that is so sophisticated - that I can't use it the way I want to. And that isn't even ******** about the file system that seems to be equally messed up.
    My question is, why can't I print from the iPad? Printing had been announced many times before the launch of iOS 4 and then, all of a sudden, nothing more. How can this be? Why do I have to buy additional software - which is not really cheap and far from certain to work at all - just to be able to print a few pages?
    Please help me understand this, as I see it, major flaw of the iPad and iOS 5.

    Thanks guys,
    I seem to have understood by now.
    To sum it up:
    - I can print with the iPad directly if the printer is Airprint compatible.
    - I can print via a number of more or less working apps.
    I've downloaded some HP software for my iPad and even seem to be able to access it from some other apps, that is except Apples Pages app. Sigh! So whenever I have to make changes in my documents, I still can't print.
    GoodReader on the other hand lets me send my documents to the HP app, but the app/HP won't let me print microsoft docs unless I register and send my documents over to HP where the printing prep is being made, then they send it back to me/my printer. Anyway GoodReader blows my layout apart, so I must change it on the iPad, but when I do …
    It's a big catch.
    You must realize that printing really isn't that comfortable and that as a spoiled old Mac user I might be excused for wishing something more workable.
    The truth seems to be that I've got to carry all those docs on a USB-stick, move them over to the Windows-machine at our school and print from there - which is what I do on a daily basis already.
    All those workarounds that may or may not work (check out user comments on those printing apps!) are so annoying that my overall question remains pretty much the same.
    But I could also rephrase the question: Why can't I print from the so-called best tablet office app even if I am equipped with all the apps I apparently need?
    Please understand that this is not Apple-bashing in any way. This is a real problem for me in my everyday life. I won't be persuading my school to buy AirPrint printers just because of my little problem and I honestly don't want to spend more money on printing apps that seem never to even have gone through beta testing.
    Still, thanks for you efforts. I guess I'll just have to wait for Microsoft Office for iPad to get that big problem solved.

    YOu have not provided any system info, version info or details about your printer. This is not going anywhere beyond stating the obvious - your system is not color managed.

  • I can print from my macbook pro using airport express usb connected printer, however my iPad is looking for an airprint printer.  Can I direct the iPad to the usb connected printer.  Both macbook and iPad confirm a wifi connection through the airport exp.

    You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

  • Why can I not print from pages but can if I copy to text edit, I get "printer off line message " from pages ?

    Why can I not print from pages but can if I copy to text edit, I get "printer off line message " from pages ?  I use HP wireless printer .

    Are you sure you have the right printer?
    In UNIX/OSX printers are virtual links to devices and even with the same name can be trying to reach a printer via another network address, so it thinks it is another printer.

  • Hi I cant print from my macbook pro to my brother mfc j265w anymore. its saying its offline.Can anyone help?

    Hi can anyone help me? I am having trouble printing from my macbook pro to my brother printer. It worked fine yesterday but now its dissapeared from my options to print.

    I have tried plugging in an eternet (blue) cable from the printer to the wireless router, but i dont know how to make my macbook find the wireless printer!
    If your printer is like my Canon printer, you'll have to do as Bob suggests - use the Setup on the LCD panel of your printer to set up wifi. Pretty easy with my Canon PIXMA MG8220...

  • How can I print from my MacBook Pro to Canon MP560 using rear tray?  I can't find that "option" in the print selection possibilities.

    How can I print from my MacBook Pro to Canon MP560 using rear tray?  I can't find that "option" in the print selection possibilities.

    Sure can.
    With a document open in Pages, select to print so that you can see the print dialog as shown below.
    Note that to see this view, you may need to press the Show Details button in the bottom left corner. In the image above, since I have the expanded view displayed, this button changes to Hide Details
    So with the view shown, first change the Presets menu to Default Settings. Then click the Layout drop menu and select Quality & Media. Make the changes you want and then click on the Presets menu and select Save Current Settings as Preset...
    At the next window, give the Preset a name and select the Only this Printer radio button and then click OK to save it. That's it.
    As for the Preset that you already have, if you no longer want this preset then you can delete it via the Show Presets menu pane that you've used already.

    Why can't I print from my iPad 2 to a Bluetooth enabled HP Mobile Printer? My Bluetooth is on and the HP printer shows it's connected?
    Thank you Bruce

    Printing via Bluetooth isn't supported, the supported bluetooth profiles are on the page that you posted from. If your printer supports AirPrint then you can print to it via your wifi network.

    why can't I print from my ipad 2 on my epson workforce 840 printer  ??? it show that there isn't a printer on my Ipad and my printer is wireless.

    The 840 isn't supported by Airprint.  See the list here:

    You may be able to use a universal printing app (check the app store), or Epson may make an app.  Or you could get a more up-to-date printer.
