Q: Installing Canon LBP 2900 on Mac OS 10.9 fails.
Installing Canon LBP 2900 on Mac OS 10.9 fails.
I have updated my OSX 10.8.5 and my printer has stopped to work. Then I deleted the printer and tried to install it as found in a older thread here in the forum.
After adding the printer, a window opens which tells me I have installed too many printers and my printer is deleted automatically. But I have installed only one printer.
Any idea?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

This is what worked for me...
The printer works with Mavericks using the new CAPT v3.65 driver available here: http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100420705.html and the old Mountain Lion patch which is available here:

Go to System Settings / Printers and Scanners and delete your printer, then restart your computer. Install the new CAPT driver and restart your computer. Install the patch and restart your computer.
Go to System Settings / Printers and Scanners and reinstall your printer selecting Cannon LBP2900 (CAPTuk) driver from the drivers list
You should now have a working printer.
Good Luck
