Yosemite Driver for Canon LBP 2900

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

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!!!
