The patch doesn't work on mojave mainly because the latest Canon drivers use a different installation folder. The patch consist of replacing in a couple of binary files the LBP3000 text with LBP2900. Here the instructions and two patched files:
Please help me to resolve my issue.. I have update my macOS to Big Sur, now my Canon LBP2900B is not working, I tried reinstalling the printer driver file for LBP3000 as it worked with macOS Catalina.. But in vain.
Just updated from OS Mojave to Big Sur. With previous updates I have been able to get the printer working with patches, but now Im not able to get it working with Big Sur 11.3. Is the patch only working for 11.2?
After going through all the answers in this thread, I realized that I had not REPLACED those two patchfiles. But now I have, and at least I do not get any errormessage! Now it is only a window where it says "printing". But its not printing. But Im feeling that I am close
How I have connected my LBP2900B over home network is, I have connected my printer to my Mac and shared it.. so all my other laptops, desktop & mobile can access it over same WiFi network. While sharing I choose the TCP/IP address to connect from my windows PC/Laptops on Mac Big Sur.
At video, He have macos driver for printer. In my case, I add printer, but it "sending to print" over 5 minutes, than I stop it. I think problem in LBP3000 driver. Via USB work normal, but in case network printer on Win10, there are LBP2900 on Win10 and LBP3000 on mac, and they can't work correct
I seen many times how people describe how to's about LBP-2900, and 10-12 steps from start to end of how to download, unpack, build driver, fix driver, make it work... Could be there some .deb package with ready-to-go driver for Ubuntu? This printer is very popular...
I installed a Canon-LBP- printer on my sisters Ubuntu machine. It was a hard riddle, involving several downloads, unplugging and replugging the USB, and finally it printed, but refused to print after reboot.
I had an issue getting Canon LBP6020 working with cups on pi. Found the *nix driver but no version of armhf so I did not manage to get it to work. Sharing this in case if you are lucky with your model:
Canon LBP2900B is a fantastic system and adding wireless capabilities makes life easy. Canon team can work on releasing official drivers for Raspberry Pi to make the printer a Wireless capable device, hence making life of the user easy.
For me, this technique works most of the time but I also get errors which are difficult to address. Others are welcome to work on this technique and suggest me anything I should try out to improve the reliability of the system. I have not made a video explanation for this but will surely do if required.
I used Asus PN 40 as it comes cheap and gets my task done flawlessly. Next I used Windows 10 because of its driver support. The prime reason for choosing them was low maintenance in long term and better software support.
All the previous issues I had on Pi were resolved and the performance is much better and reliable, as none of my print jobs failed. Whereas in case of Pi, I had to manually intervene and resolve print server issues. I would definitely recommend this new solution as its easy and reliable. Although the machine costs little more than a Pi, but its worth it, considering the reliability and performance.
The Old Pi now has a better job as Retro Pi and believe me it works perfectly as a Retro Pi. And anyone doing such tinkering, please ensure you have good amount of Time. I think I cannot do much improvements further but will suggest others to explore and find out new problems. If someone is willing to do some improvements here are some areas :
Usually it shows in CUPS List. If not, I remove and re-install, worked for me every time. But believe me, this machine was difficult to maintain in the long run, hence had to switch to other platform !!
Thanks for reply.
I have no reason not to believe you. But I consider replacing it with some same old and cheap HP LJ (not limited to, just an example) more simple and generally reasonble way to deal with that all in all after getting all those weird experience.
It doesnt require from you pretty much anything though does its job just fine pretty much out-of-the-box. The matter of only $40-45 at most in where I am.
Actually the printer works just fine ! No comments on its engineering but the team must work on releasing printer drivers for Linux also! And I believe, this should become the norm as not everyone uses a Windows or Mac nowadays ?!!
