Hi there,
Now that Yosemite has been installed and working well, I am left with a non-functional Canon LBP2900. On Mavericks, it worked well with the patch but seems it doesn't carry across to the new OS. I have reset my printer settings and re-patched the system as per Mavericks but no joy.
Any tips? or lots of printers going into the bin!!!
Regards

thanks, it works for me

Hi there,
whilst I've been away - it seems the answers have been found and tested. I tried this today on my iMac and it worked. Many thanks for all of you that responded with how to make things work. You are all genius!
Hey Guys,
I have followed illuzii steps and it work for me but I have a problem when I turn on or restart my computer. They show the message as below that need me to allow network connections in Firewall.
I do allow it in firewall but they still show message everytime after I turn on my com.
Have anyone know how to solve this problem? or Do I need to turn off the fire wall ?
Thanks

I finally solved the problem.
1. Delete your printer in Printers and scanners preferences.
2. Restart computer.
3. Download and install the following driver (version 3.67 has just been released for Yosemite): http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100420705.html
4. Restart computer.
5. Download and install the patch appearing at step 3 on this page: http://macdaily.me/howto/how-to-install-canon-lbp2900-on-mac-os-x-mavericks/
6. Restart computer.
7. Connect the printer with USB, add the driver in Printers and scanners preferences, select the appropriate driver.
8. Enjoy the rest of the day.
It works for me!!!
Thanks, It worked perfectly!
Brilliant, thanks for that. I'd never have figured that out. Works perfectly. Cheers
Argh, I have been trying this for the last two hours as I desperately need to get some printing done but can't find the driver for LBP2900 in the drop down menu (system preferences / printers)! Can anyone tell me where I might be going wrong?? I have followed the steps through twice (deleting all drivers after first attempt didn't work)
Hi jafartall,
I was having this very same problem with printing on my LBP 2900 ever since I updated to Yosemite. Essentially print commands were going to the printer, the print queue was opening up and eventually after about 2 to 3 minutes, the queue would reset to zero as if the document had finished printing with absolutely no movement or action taking place at the printer.
But thanks to your instructions and the driver and patch links, my printer's back to beautiful working order!
Thanks you very much!
This is not working for OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. I can't find my printer model i.e. Canon LBP 2900 in the list ? please give me the solution. It's quite disturbing for me.
This is what i get in the list.
This link contains the Printer Model i.e. Canon LBP 2900 and it's working. 🙂
