Printing procedure

Printing from Mac OS X

Print from the application menu after registering the printer.

Important

We recommend exiting unnecessary applications before printing. Running several applications while printing may interrupt the transfer of print data and affect printing quality.

Registering the printer

Before printing, you must register the printer in Printer Setup Utility (or Print Center ).

For instructions on registering the printer, see “Conguring the Printer Driver Destination (Macintosh)”. (→P.588)

Important

During this setup process, the printer will not be listed among available printers if it is off or disconnected.

By factory default, the AppleTalk protocol is disabled on the printer. You must enable the AppleTalk protocol before using the printer in an AppleTalk network. For instructions on activating AppleTalk protocol, see “Conguring the Destination for AppleTalk Network (Macintosh)”. (→P.589)

Note

When registering the printer, choose USB if the printer is connected via USB, Canon FireWire(iPF) if connected via IEEE 1394, or AppleTalk, Canon IP(iPF), or Bonjour if connected via a network.

For Canon IP(iPF) connections, enter the printer’s IP address.
