Ihave call customer support directly and tried to get them to get me in contact with canon software dev and engineering. It seems to me a corporation like this should have a driver on day one, seeing how Ventura has been in beta for over a year, and the DevKit is just $100.

ALSO PLEASE can we have a radio button under Print for Secure Print, that just loops the secure print menu? If the driver is in development can you please add this feature on the new Version mac/windows?


One last feature request is to add 1-sided printing option to the Mac(apple) driver for default printing. As of now windows has an option to check 2-sided on or off for windows default profile. In mac I have to set up multiple print templates in the system print menu. I understand how this will reduce waste but in the end the user prefers 1-sided.


My vendor/dealer can not solve this issue that is why I am here. This is a Canon USA DRIVER issue, that's made possible by the lazy Software developer Canon has hired. I'm well aware how to use the driver and the printer, and the driver is BROKEN and not COMPATIBLE with the LATEST OPERATING SYSTEM FROM APPLE. I AM LOOKING FOR AN ESTIMATED TIME OF ARRIVAL FOR THE NEW DRIVER. This has hindered clientele to operate their business.


I am having the same issue. After updating my Mac to 13.0.1, my Canon scanner (imagreFormula R40) is no longer usable. When I try to run CaptureOnTouch the operating system shows a dialog with the text "CaptureOnTouch is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the trash."


I own an architectural firm, and for whatever reason when using Mac OS 13 the only page size that will print is letter size. (Normally there are many options.) There are also no options for scaling, double-sided, color, etc.--basically it only prints whatever image I have to letter size. It works fine on my other Macs that are not on OS 13, so clearly the driver is the problem and should be updated. Please resolve as soon as possible so that I can actually print the documents I need. thanks


Hi,

I have canon LBP3000 laser printer. I have downloaded both versions of driver from canon, version 1.6 and 1.8, and followed step by step instructions. I also checked all over the net for the solution, but found none.

My printer is identified, and status is fine, just it wont print. This is in detail what happens, and the steps I followed.

First I made sure that I have removed printer's spooler:


I click on properties and I noticed that for driver it says 1.5 version. That was odd, but I tried nonetheless. I did print page, it said completed, but no printing occurred. I then tried to changeMake and Model by clicking on the button to the right and chosing the right ppt file, since from select from database was only that 1.5 version driver that probably came with Ubuntu. I am using 9.04, so its a bit odd that it has driver so old.


In previous steps you noticed that in fifo0 I registered my ppt, and fifo0 is chosen, but still that 1.5 version, and printer wont print anything although status says everything is fine and printing jobs compleated.


If the printer is connected via the network, it has usually also a web interface which appears if you enter the printer's IP in the URL field of a web browser. Look through the configuration settings there if your printer has no front panel display/menus.


Printer has only two buttons - power button and paper button. It does not have a display nor is connected via network. I will try to find something in the manual.

I have dual boot, and in Windows XP, printer works just fine.


Can you try the following: Replace the file /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops by the attached file and make the new file executable ("sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops"). Then try to print again. Does it work now?


Following the steps in wiki, I noticed that there was no file cupsys. I then went to synaptic and installed it (cups was there, just not cupsys), but it did not appear in the location mentioned in wiki page. Thus instead of cupsys restart I had to do cups restart.


So your print job is called with PageSize=Letter and your time zone is Europe/Belgrade. Are you actually using Letter-sized paper? I would assume that A4-sized paper is loaded into your printer. Perhaps the printer refuses printing due to the paper size mismatch. So check your /etc/papersize file (it should contain "a4" and nothing more), your printer's default settings (System -> Administration -> Printing, right-click printer icon, Properties, Printer Options, Page Size or Media Size), the settings in the application (the page size setting can be also under "File"/"Page Setup", "File"/"Print Setup", or "Format"/"Page").


Job does not disappear from the print queue. It is processing all the time, all until I cancel it. In printer properties I have "Processing - printer is now on-line"

I canceled printing of test page, and /var/log/syslog is attached right after.


Ok, that is strange, I tried to chmod the /dev/usb/lp0, but there is no usb directory in /dev folder. There are just usbdev* files.

I searched through whole filesystem for lp0 file, but there is none.


The problem seems to be Canon's ccp backend. The pipes with which the backend takes in the data have 777 permissions, so jobs get accepted independent with which user rights the backend is executed. The error_log shows that all filters close successfully, only the backend keeps running without issuing any messages until you cancel the job. For me it looks like the backend is broken, so from the Ubuntu side we cannot do anything.


I too have this problem since upgrading to 9.10. I have a Canon ip2600 inket at home and an HP M2727 laserjet at work. Both dont print when trying to print PDF files. I can print OO files fine and anything else just fine.


I have almost the same problem printing to an Epson T11. It worked fine in 9.10 but then after upgrading to 10.04 nothing comes out. The printer configures fine, and when printing a test page, the light blinks as if it's getting the print data, but then nothing happens. I can't find any errors in any logs, and none of the other suggestions above have any effect.


I've tried from my laptop and my desktop, both run LUbuntu 10.10. Before when I ran normal Ubuntu the printer worked as is was supposed to on both laptop and desktop. Now when I changed to LUbuntu it doesn't work.


Interesting note: When I press "print" sometimes the printer spins up. But it never actually prints anything.

I was thinking that it might be a problem with the hardware since the software says 'OK' but the printer shows a green light which it does when everything is working.


I had the exact same problem until I realized doing the following fixed my problem:

- Go to 'Image Quality' tab, or click on 'Properties' then go to 'Image Quality' tab

- Try different resolutions then click 'Print'

In my case, changing 'HQ1200' to '600dpi' fixed the problem. Of course I had to print the document using lower quality, but 600dpi was good enough.
