Installing Canon SELPHY CP780/790 driver in Mountain Lion

Vex you're a fu**ing hero, I just printed thanks to your shortcut!

"It also works with this driver (CP780-790) and the CP750 / Thanks!"

Hi, how did you do it exactly? I do not get the easy way. Many thanks in advance

I have the selphy cp760 and I have followed your instructions and I think the problem I am having is with the last part - the function installation check which comes after the volume check if I'm reading it correctly. I have entered it the same way as I see on your post:

funtion installation Check () {

return true;

}

Is this correct or am I misreading your instructions, When I save the file and double click the icon on my desktop, I get the message There was an error reading the package - Java script error.

Can you help please as I really don't want to invest in an other printer as this one was working perfectly. I am a new Mac user and I am still learning me way around, so maybe I am missing something.

Tks. Maggie

Hi macrednow, I have the CP760 and I am still having trouble opening the printer.The printer is installed on my mac and I have two jobs waiting to be printed, but when I hit print a message appears saying the printer is not supported. Any suggestions.

can you guys please upload the final file i am not good in computer or please send me on my email at gsandhu4u@yahoo.com thanks a lot

I followed your instruction to the letter and I have my printer installed on my mac...now, can you tell me how to get it to print. Your intructions are for installing the printer, can you send me something on how to print. I keep getting a message saying that the printer in not supported

You're a genius! Thank you!!!!!

You may have to go into your System Preferences > Print & Scan, and then actually add the printer (click the little + at the bottom of the printer list). If you successfully installed the driver, then you should be able to add this printer.

Hope this helps 🙂

The printer is installed, it's on pause waiting to print. Every time I hit print I get a message saying Canon Selphy CP Generic - The printer is not supported, or the printer information is not acquired correctly. If the printer is supported, delete the printer from the printer list then add it again. 10322

I have deleted the printer then added it again with the same results. Looking for help in getting it to print.

No I remain as frustrated as ever! I keep my CP800 to print from an sd card but in relation to printing from my macbook pro it's utterly useless! Everyso often I go through the same procedure , downloading the drivers , cutting out the offending lines as instructed etc etc. The effect is the same ; it all loads up, the printer is recognised , I expectantly deliver a photo to print from IPhoto and it does what it always does-the paper makes one pass and then it hangs indefinitely! I don't know enough about troubleshooting software to pinpoint what might be (not ) happening and so I end up ranting about Apple/Canon etc on the one hand for their lack of support to dedicated users like myself and , on the other hand, being angry at my own over reliance on this technology.....

Ok with 780!!! Thanks!!!

Unfortunately it´s not the way for my other Shelpy CP510 printer... :-(

I installed the Gutenprint drivers but the quality its not so good...

Same photo printed from a PC have much better colors and contrast...

Some idea for the 510, Master of knowledge!!! ;-)

Excuse my poor english

Vex, another Thank You! I was ready to throw my Selphy CP760 into the trashcan, until AppleCare pointed me to your post.

Coastal Cool, I have the Selphy CP760 and I have followed the instructions to the tee, and I can get the printer installed, but it won't print. I keep getting the message " Canon Selphy CP Generic - The printer is not supported, or the printer information is not acquired correctly. If the printer is supported, delete the printer from the printer list then add it again. 10322"

So...can you tell me how you got your's to print. I'm about to throw my mac in the traash, my Selphy was working beautifully before I switched computers.

Thank you! The Canon CP790 driver works with my Selphy CP740 on Mac OS X Version 10.9.1. Danke!

murfmagic,

I'm a new mac user too, so I can't be of much help...but Canon doesn't have a driver for this printer on Windows 8 or 8.1 either. So shame on Canon. I could only speculate to try cancelling all the failed print jobs, deleting the printer, then re-downloading the printer drivers, trying a couple different versions. I used cp530-760-770os-x-06.dmg which is a different version that mentioned by mviciousvex and macrednow. Good luck.
