Pixma 3300 - Error E59 - Mac Monterey 12.4 OS?

Billie — Sun, 05 Jun 2022 14:17:35 GMT

My printer is relatively new - Sept 2021 - and has worked well until now, The alarm light goes on when trying to print anything (from Mac w Monterey OS), error E59 (paper incompatibility). I've unplugged repeatedly, changed paper, etc. Nothing works. No useful help on Canon site. ***Interestingly, I can print from my iPhone.*** Has anyone else had trouble since upgrading to Monterey 12.4?

I downloaded a new driver on my Mac but problem persists.

Hi, Billie!

So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know more information.

How do you connect to your printer (USB or WiFi)?

I talked to Apple Support - both a chat guy and live expert help - and after completely removing the printer and reinstalling it, it is still not working. It's printer problem and I dread having to deal with Canon support, based on their website 'help'.

Thank you. It is a 3322; using wifi.

I finally resolved the question with the help of a Canon online chat. Press the button with a paper icon. Press and hold until it cycles through paper sizes, until I hit LTR. Voila. THANK YOU! (I do wish the website had provided that tip; I searched in as many ways as I could think of, to no avail). Again, thanks.
