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

Hi all:
I followed Illuzi suggested steps one-by-one, rebooting after each one step, but still getting issues
Printer seams to be properly installed but not printing.
Printer is available for printing as soon as you select any printable document (i.e.: from Safari, or TextEdit)
I can click print button, ...
Then, document is sent to printer ...
I open the Printer.app icon at the lock bar ...
Progress messages are appearing
.- Ready for pinting ...
.- Printing - Sending Data to printer
And it keeps at this state forever. Nothing happens.
I'm using Yosemite in Spanish for more information.
May someone suggest me how to move forward?
What else can I double check in order to be success?
Regards.

Same problem as molinatrix.
I followed all the instructions in this post, as well as this one: http://www.applephoon.com/Cant-print-with-canon-LBP3250-1082-and-C-thread-79207- 1-1.html
However, my problem persists. Every time I print, the printing action goes on for a couple minutes, before telling me "can't connect to CCPD, operation time out".
I am on OS X 10.10.2 now, and using Canon LBP3000. Phone calls to Canon service people have not produced any helpful clues.
Any idea what I shall do at this point? Are Canon printers incompatible with Mac computers? Should I buy a new computer? Any suggestions which brand is more Mac-friendly?
Thanks!!!
