Q: Canon MX870 HELP PLEASE
Just recently my wifi printer (canon PIXMA MX870) wouldn't work when it goes to sleep. I mean that when the display goes black it will not print and on the Mac it just pauses itself when i unpause it it repauses itself and won't print. Then i have to turn it off and on again (printer) and it will print fine. Please help. I haven't change ANY settings, i just replaced the PGI-Black INK and the cyan and yellow ink is "low". Any help will be VERY much appreciated.
iMac Late 2009, Mac OS X (10.6.4), iMac, iPod Touch 2nd Generation w/ OS 3.1.3, iPod Nano 3rd Generation

I don't think that the iPad would be causing your issue, as you can open the internal web page and the restart does let you print to the Canon for a period of time. I'm not sure what to suggest next. The symptom does sound like it is a machine issue rather than it being something with the Mac. If you know how to change your wireless router settings then you could try changing the channel being used by the router as that can sometimes help. This may assist with whatever trouble you are having with the iPad also.
