Hoping a madjacker can help me.


I am having problems printing here is the situation:

When I try to print it says this:

Canan Fax Driver: No Recipients are Set

It is like the printer isn't even there, if wire disconnected get same message.

Weird:shrug:


The printer is a Canon MF4100 (driver version 2.0).


Would love to know what the fu** is going on?

Any help would be appreciated:cool:

Sounds like

Sounds like

The drivers are corrupt. I would go to canon.com download the latest drivers for your printer. Then unlpug it from your computer un-install it. Then reboot and install the new drivers and then reconnect your printer should work perfect.

Thanks.....I'll do that.....only problem is that I have looked everywhere but can't find where to download it?


I have a MAC, found plenty of locations like this:


http://canon.driversdown.com/Canon-...-Driver-Ver.2.00-for-Windows-Vista_1154.shtml



But that is not for a MAC, anyone know where I can find the driver for a MAC:shrug:


Canon MF4100 Series Printer Driver Ver.2.00 for a MAC has to be somewhere:shrug:

The problem seems to be with the 10.5.7 update. I couldn't get my MF4150 to work without that error msg. When I looked at the info on my driver (system preferences/print&fax/options&supplies/driver) it appeared I was using the fax driver all of a sudden, but with the option to switch drivers greyed out.

I then reset the printer system (right click the printer) then reinstalled the drivers, still no luck. So finally, I removed both drivers (select "-" underneath the printer list) and then added a driver manually (select "+") and selected canon mf4100 series (as opposed to canon mf4100 series (fax)) and waited a minute or so for the computer to find the driver. When it found it, the option "print using" defaulted to "fax," so I instead picked "UFR II printer," clicked add, made it my default, and it worked fine. (I later also added the fax driver, not sure why i need it but what the heck). Hope this helps.
