We recently got a Canon Pixma MX700 4in1 (copier/printer/scanner/fax) to go w/ with the Macbook (OS X v 10.5). Today I finally got brave enough to try installing the printer. The copier part worked ok previously. Followed the instructions on the card and everything seemed be happen as expected during installation.
For the restart after successful installation there was a note
on the instruction card about "when using Mac OS X v. 10.2.8 to v.10.3.3" which I ignored thinking v.10.5 was outside that window. (the note said leaving the printer connected to Macbook during restart might cause the printer not to be detected , so recommended disconnecting USB cable).
When I was done, I tried to print. No response at all.
Also the printer name is showing as Canon iP1700 @crf65832169.... why is it showing that when it is MX700?
I don't recall entering the name during the installation....only during registration afterwards. Also there is an icon on the desktop labeled MX700 so that seems like the Mac knew what printer it was installing for.
Any ideas what went wrong? Thanks.
