Cannon Pro 100 - How do I get the "back" printer to operate.

TheRogue1000

Canon's calling the "top" printer the "rear" printer is utterly confusing.  In any case, I can' seem to get the printer to make use of the "back" printer, the part that prints up to 13x19.  Any help here?

In truth, I can't recall and haven't found a way to check that. As I don't think I've ever seen an IJ Network link that I can remember, if I had to make a choice, I probably would have chosen Bonjour. No promises, though. <g> Btw, I did write to Canon Support and asked if there were any way I might get your software. No reply as yet.

You said you've printed, so we can assume printer is installed correctly onto Mac.

 

I opened a document in Pages and selected print and get the same printer window as I posted earlier.

 

It happens automatically when I select print, with the same required to show detail as I discussed earlier.

 

The first thing you need to do is to get this window open in Pages. Then, if you can't get it in your graphics program its a program issue.

The print page for Pages is exactly the same as yours. The print page in Graphic Converter is a bit different, but I've just found a particular setting which will let me choose the manual printer. Yay! Thanks so much for your help. You're a *very* patient guy.

Glad to help.

Thanks. This did let me print the art piece, but I still can't seem to access the "manual" printer. I'm working with a Mac app called Graphic Converter and it doesn't seem to let me even see any choice between the two feed slots. As you can see from the instructions shown here, all it says is "Select the Manaul (sic) Feed Tray but there are no instructions as to where one would make a choice. We print and sell my wife's art, using both 100# card stock (beautiful results) and now trying hot press watercolour paper (mixed results).

Are you connected by USB or wifi. Do you have Pages software.
