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
Jafar
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10), Canon LBP2900
Thanks a million! You really helped me out 🙂
Hi
I did that and it worked but after I upgraded to 10.10.3 (14D136) on may 20th - it stopped working on my 2011 Imac. WIth the same drivers and the same patch but no upgrading Canon lpb2900 works on my boyfriend's mcbook air. WHat can I do (he dosen't let go of his machine)? I have erased all the former capt files and reinstalled the drivers and the patch. It pretends it is printing but never does and after a while it says that it took too long.
Please help me, you patient experts!

With the newest update of Yosemite to 10.10.4 the LBP Canon Printer again doesn't work ... I'm not sure, but this is getting annoying ... and canon as well doesn't have any link supporting Yosemite ...
Anyone has an idea ?
Hi peter,web,
I have the same problem. I was wondering if you found a solution for your problem.
Do let me know. Thank you!!!!!
Hey Vaiidya,
Yup, I've solved the problem.
1. Delete your printer in Printers and scanners preferences anduninstall all the drivers what you have for LBP2900.
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. That's all...
I was confused when I saw my printer it's working perfectly ... but that's it ...
Good Luck 🙂
Sadly doesn't work for me 😟
still shows version 3.36 not 3.67.
Let me know if you can help me out! 🙂
Well, doesn't shows me 3.67 ... here is the image:
And works fine with 3.36 🙂 ... do restart the computer, even you removing even you adding any kind of driver for the Printer.
I am not terribly tech savvy and my IT assistants here are all unfamiliar with Macs. I have a MacBook Pro OSX 10.10.5 and a Canon LBP 2900. I have followed the above links and downloaded and installed as instructed, but the driver software can't be found. All I can see is a .dmg file of some 42MB. Perhaps I didn't uninstall something? How to do that? Or is there another patch required? I did delete the printer and restart each time as directed. Am running out of ideas and would welcome help. Many thanks!
Replying to myself here: I found a patch that converts the LBP 3000 to a LBP 2900; downloaded and it works fine. Sorry that I'm not sure of the URL as I tried almost all I could find.... (told you I wasn't tech savvy). But thanks, and it's great to know that this community exists.
Yosemite 10.10.5
Cannon 2900B is not working
Cannot find any help anywhere. Any leads?
Well, the LPB is working well on 10.10.5
I'm Using the 3.80 Driver from Canon and the Patcher.
You can download both here at my MEGA
But what about El Capitan? Any solution for that upcoming OS?
Hi Guys !
We should get ready the drivers for El Capitan !
Any update please post here !
Any advice?
HI guys
how do we install it on El Capiton
Help! El Capitan downs the LBP 2900 yet again - why couldn't Canon support this printer on the Mac OS platform (and why did I buy it - because it was cheap and cheerful).. Other cheap and cheerful options now exist so I may explore those. This rigmarole gets tedious after a while.
That's what holding me from upgrading
