Hello Leebo.

 

In order to help, we'll need more information.

 

Which version of Mac OS is running on the computer?

 

Is the Mac computer a Macbook or other laptop? 

 

When the printer isn't responding by USB, check the USB device list (Apple menu > About this Mac > More Info > System Report > Hardware > USB).  Does the "Canon MF230 series" show up in the USB list when it doesn't respond?

 

If you need immediate assistance with this issue, please contact us using the numbers and information at http://Canon.us/ContactLI

It is a Macbook Pro running High Sierra. It works perfectly with Brother HL-L2380W, HP LaserJet P1102W, HP Office JetPro 9010 and did also with my Canon MX700. That just died and I was very sad. It was my work horse and I had managed to keep it going despite updates on Apple software.

It shows that my computer is hooked up to the printer, but it doesn't print unless I shut the printer down and restart it. The screen will shoiw the information to copy, but not print.
