Wi-Fi problems with the Pixma Pro-100

The wi-fi connection for this printer only works for about a week, then i get a message saying the printer can't be found.  But what's odd is I can ping it's address and I can connect to it's web interface with the static IP that the printer has.  If I re-run the install with the CD it will work again.  It isn't a router or network problem.  If it was I wouldn't be able to ping it and connect to it's web page.  Seems like a port problem.   Are there known problems with wi-fi for this printer?
Why can't a standard TCP/IP port be used?

Hi Michael - I believe I know what the problem was.  My printer had a static IP address.  I believe it was 192.168.1.7
I have my router configured to start at 192.168.1.100 for DHCP address leases.
When I couldn't print I checked the printer, I discoverd the IP address for the printer was 192.168.1.126.  I used that address to bring up the admin web page for the printer.  It was still set to static.  How it ended up with 192.168.1.126 I don't know.
But anyway, I ran the setup CD again. Set the static IP address to 192.168.1.5, wrote it down, so I'm sure next time if it changes.  But I've tried it every day since and it's kept that address.  Normally I only use the printer a couple times a month.  So I keep it turned off.  
Thanks.

  • Does anybody have problems with the Macbook Pro Retina 15' fans being really loud even when playing flash games like candy crush or tetris?

    Hey guys,
    So after a few months of using the MBP 15' Retina, I've discovered that the fans are incredibly loud even when playing flash games like candy crush or tetris.. are any of you guys having the same problem? Like all of a sudden from be quiet to unbelievably loud just as the games load. So yeah, hopefully someone has the same problem as I am having.
    What I was thinking was that the MBP Retina 15' is such a beefed up laptop, it shouldn't require that much CPU to run flash games that are not even THAT graphically intensive to which making the fans that loud..
    Thanks!

    Believe it or not, Flash REALLY isn't the issue.
    It's hardware makers making devices with less processor performance and requiring software makers to fit into a certain requirements of such. Namely iPhone, iPods and iPads.
    Flash is designed to give a lot of features and work across many operating systems, browsers and platforms as a write once solution.
    Flash has a certain level of processor performance requirement, which hardware makers like Apple want to build less powerful machines using less expensive processors.
    Apple has removed Coverflow 3D effects from iTunes and discontinued the 17" MacBook Pro, leaving only the 15" as having a more powerful 3D capable graphics capability.
    So Apple is obviously on a anti-heat/performance quest as they further thin up their hardware, trying to kill Flash by punishing Mac users who want to run it.
    Flash runs without a fan sound on my older Mac with dedicated GPU and older OS X verison, no sweat.
    Head to your System Preferences > Energy Saver and if you have it, uncheck Automatic Graphics switching, this will use the dedicated GPU and shorted battery life, but if your on power should reduce the heat and fan noise.
    Another option is to use SMC fan control and set the fan default speed slightly faster, this will keep the machine slightly cooler and not trigger the higher fan speed as often.
    If your running 10.8, you will need to System Preferences > Security > downloads to "Anywhere"
    SMC FanControl is over at MacUpdate.com.

  • So, CAN I turn off the printer's color management? Pixma Pro-100.

    So, I am trying to turn off the color management function for the Pro-100...
    On my Windows desktop, I use Photoshop to print with Canson Rag 210, color profile installed, allow photoshop to manage colors and print a beautiful, perfect print with the Mark 9000. Now, I have the Pixma Pro-100 and using the exact same settings, I print wirelessly with my laptop, and I get these dark, red/orange hued prints that are atrocious.
    I should mention the same exact photograph printed between setups ALWAYS prints better with the Mark 9000 and my desktop. However, when using my laptop and the Mark 9000... Crap. Laptop and Pixma Pro-100... Crap. What is my MAC doing that my desktop is not?! How can identical settings print such drastic results? Photoshop does warn me (newer version on my MAC vs. Windows) to turn off the printer's color management in the printer's settings, but I do not see that option. Maybe I'm missing it? How do I do that? I'm thinking it may help!

    Have you tried printing from the MacBook using Canon Print Studio Pro or letting printer manage colors? I know this doesn't specifically answer your question, but PSP is designed to handle the PS/printer interface.
    Download PSP 1.3.5 from the Canon support site.

  • PIxma Pro 100 - Lightroom Incorrect image sizing for select paper sizes

    I am trying to print from Lightroom to the Pixma Pro 100 using the A3+ Paper size (13"x19")  In Lightroom, the page and printer setups are all correct (verified by Adobe's Tech support) and in the Print Preview area, everything looks great and ready to print.
    Yet when I actually print the image to A3+ paper (and the image nearly fills the entire paper area) the resulting image is serverly cropped on the paper.  In fact is looks like it is cropping the image to 8.5x11, which obviously, only uses a portion of the 13x19 paper size.  It seems that Lighroom or the Canon Printer drivers are not respecting the selected paper size and defaulting to 8.5x11.
    Here is a link to an image of what the print out looks like:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/mylwpsns0uvr4io/2013-05-20%2009.00.15.jpg
    This does not happen when printing from Print Studio Pro, nor from Photoshop itself.
    I've dealt with Adobe Tech support and Canon - both are point fingers at each other.  Meanwhile I am unable to print anything on larger paper sizes.
    The Pixma Pro is the only printer connected and I've re-installed drivers and checked for updates.  Still the same.  At this point, any comments on the situation would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    I am experiencing something like this as well.
    I do almost all my printing in A3+ and I do it all directly from LIghtroom. No problem til sometime this summer (post firmware update). Now whenever I set it up for 13 x 19 (and LR shows that it is 13 X 19) the finished print is actually 7.5 x 11 on the 13 x 19 in paper.
    Incredibly frustrating as I go through time, paper, ink, and tech support (at Canon and Adobe) trying to resolve this.
    Last week a Canon technician walked me through a complete reinstall of the printer and then it worked again. This week it's back to the same mess, and neither  a reinstallation of the printer today nor an update of my LR solfware resolved the problem.
    I learned today that I am able to print the correct size using Print Studio Pro, but I have never used it in the past and I'm reluctant to switch from the functional LR to Canon workflow I had going (where I knew how my printing specs would come out) 

  • How to print from Lightroom 5 to Canon Pixma pro-100?

    Using Lightrooms printmodule with this printer is a big problem for me. Using Cannon Print studio Works, but then you
    loose a lot of great functionallity in LR print module.
    It seems that when I make a preset or set up printer with correct ICC profile the canon printer driver automatically resets to its own default.
    It looks like a print driver in the background resets everything i do. Very confusing and Canon support points to adobe.
    My setup:
    Macpro with  OSX 10.9.2  (latest version)
    Lightroom 5.3 (creative cloud member, always latest version)
    Canon Pixma pro-100 (bought new april 2014)
    I have looked several places on internett and it looks that there are a lot people having similar problems.
    I would appriciate any help to find an easy setup/soltion !
    Thanks in advance

    I have the Pixma Pro-100. But I'm using Windows 7, so I'm afraid I can't be a lot of help to you. I tried to help someone in another forum the other day and showed some screenshots, but he said he didn't have anything like that on the Mac.
    If you're going to use ICC profiles, you have to turn off color management either in the printer or in the printer driver. It doesn't matter which one, just make sure that it gets turned off. Then what I do is I use soft proofing with the appropriate paper profile to prepare a soft proof copy for printing. After I have set my printer settings the way I want them and have everything just right in Lightroom, I save the preset for printing. And it seems to keep what I have set. If you can show me some screenshots of your printer driver, perhaps I can be of assistance.
    Regardless of whether I allow Lightroom to manage the color or allow the printer to manage it, I am getting really nice prints. So I'm sure there's something that you are probably just overlooking.

  • PIXMA Pro-100 and Windows 8.1 Help Please....

    Hello,
    I will try to be concise
    Spent all day on the phone for this without the same answer twice *sigh*.
    I have been told and I have read over and over that YES, the Pro-100 WILL absolutely work with Windows 8.1.
    Then...I find out that it's possible that it will NOT work unless I have 8.1 Pro Pack.
    Is this true?
    IOW...Is there anyone using the PIXMA Pro-100 with Windows 8.1 *without *Pro Pack just fine?
    I ordered the printer yesterday before being told about this, and need to know if I have to cancel my order before it ships.
    Thank you very much for any and all help.

    Sherri,
    I have been using the Pro-100 along with three of the printers it has replaced, the 9000, 9500 and 9500 II since Win 8.1 came out.  They all work and work well with WIndoze 8 or 8.1.  I use Photoshop and Lightroom so the OS really doesn't matter.  If you do not have either of these, I will suggest you check into Photoshop Elements as an option.
    With one of these mentioned programs you do not need any thing additional.  Including the Canon software that comes with the Pro-100.  But a couple of Canon's software is pretty good like the printing on a DVD.  But PS, or PSE, is where it at for photos that are possibile by the Pro-100.

  • Questions before I purchase a Pixma Pro-100

    Haven't spent any time over here on the printer side of the forum and I didn't see my questions posted so I will post them here hoping they aren't repeat questions.
    Been researching photo printers and found the Pixma Pro-100 to suit my needs.  This will be my first "photo' printer.  I will be printing high res images from Lightroom (hopefully the plug-in works great).
    1.  Since I will be a light user (maybe printing once a month or even every other month), I'm concerned about plugged print nozzles or dried up ink.  Does anyone have any experience on plugged nozzles or dried up ink?  I do have a Canon iP100 for work which gets light use (also about once every other month) and I have not had any plugged nozzles so I'm optimistic that I will not have issues with the Pro-100 but I sure would appreciate some experienced feedback.
    2.  I see the printer comes with "Setup" ink tanks.  Any idea  how much printing I can get from these or should I just buy a set of ink tanks right up front?
    3.  Which refill set of tanks?  If I'm only doing color printing, should I just buy the 5 color set plus black?  I'm assuming the 8 color set (which includes the two shades of gray) are for gray scale printing.  Once I get rolling, I'll obviously buy whatever is most economical but right now I don't know.
    4.  Paper -  I see Canon has listed their paper plus all tested compatible paper on their web page.   I do have some HP photo paper (not listed as compatible) that I would like to use up.  I used this in the past on standard inkjet printers including the Canon ip100.   Any idea how this paper will hold up on the Pro-100?  Paper is HP Premium photo soft gloss and HP Premium photo high gloss.  Of course I can try it but rather not waste ink if someone out there knows better.
    5.  I'm sure this is a dumb question for most, but is it best to print from RAW or convert and print JPG?
    Thanks in advance, appreciate any feedback.

    If I were going to use LR 4 to print, I would let it do it's thing with the proprietary file LR uses. I would not try it from a RAW or convert to tiff. Not to say you can't get good results but to lessen any more issues into it until you get comfortable with the new printer.
    One thing about LR, remember to set your page size in the "page set-up" tab first.

  • Pixma Pro 100 : Unable to print 13x19" from Apple Macbook Pro

    I've got the latest drivers and firmware.
    Primarily attempting to print from Apple Aperture; A3 and A3 borderless work fine, but neither use the available space on my 13x19" paper.
    Any custom settings for 13x19" result in either A) 3x5 print on 13x19 paper, or B) out of paper alert (1006?).
    I also tried printing from adobe photoshop elements 6; there was a "super B" paper size here, but again the prints either printed borderless 13x19" but with poor random cropping, or I got the no paper error, depending on settings. Same results when printing from Apple Preview.
    So far the largest print size I've gotten successfully is 11.6x16.6" using A3 borderless.
    How can I get a 13x19" print or largest size? Thanks

    The fix for mine was to go into system preferences, printers & scanners, then remove all references to the Canon printer. This also removed the apple drivers.
    Then, download all drivers from Canon's site to your desktop.
    Then in the printers & faxes pane, click plus, and select the printer from there- you may need to select the drivers on your desktop. Somehow this forced install of the canon drivers over the apple drivers, which seem to get priority otherwise.
    After doing this, the A3+ paper size appeared in my apps as an option for the Pixma pro 100, and I had the utilities tab appear for this printer in the control panel.
    I called Canon tech support to figure this out, they were quite helpful.

  • Pixma Pro 100 low ink warning

    Does the Pixma Pro 100 auto stop when insufficient ink is available to print properly or is the 'low ink' warning all you get until the it doesn't print correctly?

    Hi mrjcall,
    The PIXMA PRO-100 will warn you when the ink is "low" and stop printing when the ink is "out".  Keep in mind that when the low warning appears, you have about 25% of the ink left in your ink tank.
