I HAVE AN 8 YR OLD CANON IP90 PRINTER WHICH I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED ON MAC BOOK PRO OSX YOSEMITE 10.10.2.
I'VE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO ADD THIS PRINTER BUT IT IS NEVER RECOGNIZED AND SO I'M UNABLE TO PRINT ANYTHING. CAN ANYONE GUIDE ME TO GET THIS SET UP AND PRINT?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), WON'T RECOGNIZE MY CANON IP90 PTR
Have you added the printer to the system using System Preferences > Printers & Scanners or merely connected the device to your computer? Don't install any software that may have shipped with the device.
According to the Canon website, the Yosemite driver for your printer is included with the OS.
Reset the printing system: OS X Yosemite: Reset the printing system
Add your printer: OS X Yosemite: Add or remove a printer
How are you connecting the printer to your computer? If Wireless, have you tried physically connecting it to your computer? Try a different port on the computer or a different USB cable?

According to Apple's documentation, Canon stopped providing support for this printer (and many others) and for any drivers users should get in touch with manufacturer:

More info:OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support
HELPTODD, call Canon tech support and asked them where you can download from a driver for your printer.
I can only state what their website says.. granted it said... "may" be available.
Try using the Lion driver... watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKacJamHVVw
I had the same with Yosemite and finale solved it with the driver for OSX Lion v10.7 which you can download from the canon website

Anche se la Canon non ha rilasciato i driver per questo sistema operativo, montando quelli per Lion si stampa benissimo.
