Hey Sted,
Is there a special way to install this driver? I installed the drve off of the link you sent but when I go to add the printer it still will not add. I've heard of people manually installing the driver but I don't know how to do that either.
Thanks!
Hey ERoot,
I'm still getting
"The software for this printer isn't available for Apple. Contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software."
message after I reset the printer list and attempt to install the Canon Pixma iP6220D driver in OS 10.7.5. I just bought ink for this printer too. 😟
I had the same problem, and unfortunately the Canon USA site seems to have removed that printer driver, but you can still download it from their UK site:
That link should show the list of drivers for ALL operating systems. If not, select OS X 10.5 or 10.6 from the list, and you should see the iP6220D CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.51.2.0 (Mac OS X 10.5/10.6) listed and be able to download it.
Once downloaded, you have to open the download to get the disk image, and on newer Macs, you have to hold down the option key when you open the installer from the disk image, since the software isn't digitally signed by Canon. Since you downloaded directly from their site, it should be safe to install.
Once installed, you need to go to System Preferences, open the Printers & Scanners panel, then click the + sign in the bottom left corner of the list to add the printer. It should automatically select the Canon iP6220d driver if the install worked correctly.
