Q: Printing cannot be executed because a printer supported by this software is not installed
It looks like a Canon issue and I have already sent them an email about it... I just wondered if anyone else as recently seen this issue?
* MacBook Pro (Early 2008)
* Mac OS 10.8.3
* Canon Easy-PhotoPrint Ex 4.1.6
* PIXMA MG6220 Printer
When launching Easy-PhotoPrint Ex, the software: "Printing cannot be executed because a printer supported by this software is not installed."
Easy-PhotoPrint Ex 4.1.6 has never been able to recognize my printer under 10.8.3. .. wifi or USB. ONLY
Easy-PhotoPrint Ex 4.1.6 works normally on an older MacBook under 10.7.6 using wifi.
The printer is recognized by the system and will print normally both using wifi and USB, using virtually every software except for Easy-PhotoPrint Ex.
I looks like an Easy-PhotoPrint Ex / 10.8.3 issue -- oh and I just did an erase and restore of the OS this morning - the only 3rd party re-insrtalled is: Easy-PhotoPrint Ex 4.1.6.
Has anyone else seen this issue recently ?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), Canon Easy-PhotoPrint Ex 4.1.6

Okay. Managed to recreate the fault. With no printer installed this message does appear. AND, if you add the printer but select the AirPrint driver, then you will get the same message. So the solution is to open Print & Scan and remove the current printer for the MG. Then add the printer again, but ensure you do not select the MG6200 showing under Nearby Printers, as shown below.
Instead, you need to select "Add Printer or Scanner" and then from the new window, after you select the MG6200 Series, you must select "Canon MG6200 series", as shown.
