New Pro 4600 seems to only have Bonjour drivers
« on: October 17, 2024, 02:15:28 pm »

Have hit a wall on my new Pro4600 setup. On the driver download page it only has one driver, the Bonjour. Like my Epsons when Bonjour is selected there are no print settings.
Does Canon have the IP full driver set like my Epson and where would I find it. Thought I would try here before spending an hour on the phone with Canon.

Thank you Richard. When I could not get past AirPrint I elected to update my os  and I could have added more problems as it looks like 15 may not be supported yet. I have a laptop that has not been updated yet and I will try it tomorrow. I found a driver that is IJ. See if I can get it loaded and running. The Mac os upgrade has also messed with printer selection in page setup. It says any printer and will not allow printer selection.

update my os 


Hi Dan, I know this is not directly related to your question, but, I have the 4100 and have found that, every time you update the IOS, you have to re-install the driver. What happens then, is that the new driver cannot see the Custom Media Settings(!).
You then have to go into the Media Configuration Tool and, in "CUSTOM" select a media and then just change the order or something and save that change....then suddenly the media settings appear in the driver.

The only problem with that then, is, you lose all your print presets in the driver! (Hopefully someone can show me a way around that??

Thank you William. I found the standard Driver, it is 27.10 but still seems to be missing many of the things I am used to with my Epsons.
 Under quality it has basically a good better best choice, what is with that?
Lastly under paper choices many of the ones I use seem to not have a match close to what they actually are. For example Canson Etching Rag has no match or anything close.
Anyone have one of these that could pm me to answer several questions?

Quality levels increase the amount of print head passes, and amount of Chroma Optimizer applied to the print. You can download AM1X files from Canson site and load them to the printer and printer driver using Media Configuration Tool. Feel free to PM me if you'll have any questions.
