    AirPrint on Canon Pixma Printer?

    Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to activate air print on a Canon PIXMA printer. I had a $150 Canon PIXMA printer before and as far as I remember I never had to activate anything on the printer. I simply clicked on print on my mac and searched for printers, found the device and that was...

    Inkjet all-in-one printer for Mac with double sided scanning and double-sided printing: recommendations?

    I looked at several printers with double sided scanning and double-sided printing features. No clear winner. The cost of ink isn't an issue. Overall reliability and print / scan quality is more important. Any recommendations with practical experience? Currently running MacOS Ventura and soon...

    Converting an old printer to Bluetooth

    I bought a Brother Bluetooth printer and returned it because it was awful (I mean it was really, Really, bad at wireless printing). But my old HP printer (over a decade old) still works wonderfully (I think it’s a 1006 —not wireless). I’m wondering if it’s possible to plug a USB Bluetooth...

    Attempting to use Canon iP4300 Pixma printer on iMac running Catalina

    Canon stopped updated their drivers for catalina and beyond. I have this nice photo printer and it is not recognizable on my iMac. The latest downloadable driver from Canon is the version before Catalina. Is there a hack or workaround I can use to use this printer? Thank you.

    Recommendation on a Good, Cheapest Continuous Ink All-in-One Printer

    Hi Apple friends, we're in a hurry to print a medical document (the printer's almost a goner and no more parts, especially the cartridge which is next to impossible and expensive to get- "thank you printer for the years of service"), what's the: ✅ cheapest but good ✅ continuous ink ✅ all-in-one...

    Install HP printer with driver, only (not HP Smart app)?

    I need to install an HP inkjet printer for a client. Is there a way to do so without the HP Smart app? I hate these utility apps that are really mostly adware. The computer is running macOS Sonoma.

    Disappearing Print Sizes

    Hi All, Going to try here before contacting HP. I am not sure if it is iPadOs/iOS at fault or Hewlett Packard. I have a Hewlett Packard M254dw printer which I have been using for almost three years with my iPads (iPad Pro 12.9 2020 and iPad Mini 5 and iPhones 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max. A few...

    Sonoma Printer Queue folder location?

    Prior to Sonoma, the Printer Queue folders were in ~/Library/Printers. I had some Printer Queues in my dock so I could easily control my printers. In Sonoma, I can't find the folders any more. Does anyone know where they were moved to and/or if they're user-accessible so I can add them back...

    Decent home inkjet printer/scanner

    My parents need a new one, because HP make dreadful rubbish, and theirs stopped working. Any advice would be helpful. Here's a few 'must have' features they want: 1, Not HP- and I second this. Hateful company. 2, Scanner has a feed so you don't need to scan one page at a time. 3, Cartridges...

    Recommend me a color laser printer

    Hello! There really is not a better place for it, so I guess it goes here :) I need a new printer.

    Hello Apple & Mac friends. What else or setting on both the Mac and PC (PCs, tested on more than one PC) could be preventing the Mac from communicating to the PC's printer.

    Is there someday the Apple printer will come?

    Do you think Apple will design its own printer? If the engineers from Cupertino develop something new, better, and more efficient in this area, they would completely revolutionize the printer market. That would be great... What do you think?
