CD not a print option

AVGuy

I've been using an MX922 and My Image Garden for a couple of years to print onto CD's and DVD's with no problem. I updated my iMac to Sierra and couldn't print to discs anymore. I saw that Canon had updated the drivers for Sierra and installed those plus updated My Image Garden. Now when I try to print to CD the print dialog looks different and all I can choose from are different paper sizes. Disc is not a choice.

 

I've deleted the printer several times and reinstalled the drivers but get the same result. I remember something popped up about AirPrint and wonder if that has something to do with it. But I haven't found anything to turn AirPrint off.

 

Any suggestions? I print on discs for my clients and really don't like using a Sharpie for my labels.

I was able to reinstall the Canon MX922 and this time did not select AirPrint. When I pull up my Disc label in My Image Garden everything looks as it always has.

When I click print, the print dialog looks different than it has in the past. I was able to dig down and create a preset with the paper size of 4.7" x 4.7", which is the size of the disc. I can then select the media type as printable disc and paper source as disc tray. I thought that would work. But when I print the text is sized too large and prints larger than the disc.

I've tried using the proper size several times but it seems to revert to a larger paper size.

could you assist me on the same problem ?

That was back awhile ago and I don't remember what I did to fix it. You can call Canon support and they should be able to help.

I have this problem with an iP7250. I used it successfully on my Mac from a couple of years ago. Then I updated the OS and this problem happened. So I used it on Windows which was OK. Then I updated my Mac again and it worked. Now I have updated my Mac again and it doesn't work. So my warning is if you have  a Mac and this software works, don't expect it to work when you update the OS. I don't know the solution.

Hello. I have been having similar problem as well. Was using disc printing just fine for a couple years. I updated Mac to High Sierra 10.13.6 with a clean install. Reinstalled all the latest drives and software from this link below. Designing the label looks the same. But when printing, instead of it showing a print preview of what the disc will look like, it takes you to the smaller print menu and I can only print to paper and not the disc on the disc tray.

I tried selecting a few different OS options but seems to still show the latest drivers and software. Any way to use a prior driver or software to allow printing to the disc?

 

Thank you,

J
