[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 696090, member: 24098"] Unfortunately, this is a weakness of Mac OS X. It doesn't handle port redirection like Windows does, and most of the Canon drivers are geared specifically toward the printer being hooked up via USB. In fact, the driver won't make itself available unless the printer is hooked up locally. Take a look at [URL="http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68780"]this FAQ[/URL], which will explain the problem in greater detail. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
