The airprint system is not yet compatible with all printers. Were you told that you could print to this printer from your iPad?
There is a piece of software for Macs that allows any printer to print from an iPad or iPhone 4 called Printopia 2. I've been using it to print to an Epson A3 printer and a Canon A4.

When trying to print iPad says that printer is paused

Clean the print heads at least four times in a row, without doing anything else in between... don't make a test, don't restart it; just clean the heads.

What difference did that make, please?

How can I print to canon pixma8120 from iPad?

Apple have their own proprietary printing protocol called 'AirPrint'. Only a few printers support it at present - HP is one of those that do and you can see if your model is on the list at the Apple web site

Apple - iPad - Print right from your iPad with AirPrint.

Canon also has an iPad app that works.
Search for Canon iEPP Easy Photo Print in the App store.


Otherwise you can use a program called FingerPrint - free trial available & $10 only to register.

Thanks Mark

I WANT TO PRINT FROM MY MX 870 AND IT WANTS TO SEND A FAX INSTEAD

I had this problem too. I discovered that my printer, with it's regular picture, had somehow been renamed as a Canon PIXMA Wireless Fax even though I already had it listed. Not only that, my Canon wireless printer was no longer listed. I deleted the new fax that was also listed as my default printer, and searched for my printer. I made it my default printer again and all worked as it should. I have a feeling this is happening with the latest driver updates.

How do I do mirror (or reverse) printing for a t-shirt transfer? Thanks.

If you are printing text only, you can create it using wordart in word and then use rotate or flip command to reverse the text.
If you are printing a JPG with text, the easiest way will be to use photoshop to edit the image and add text if desired, then use the mirror utility, The picture and text get reversed and the transfer is printed in reverse to become "positive" when you iron it on the Tshirt.

hope this helps.

hi what is the full name of your Canon printer?if anybody needs to see a list of airprint enabled printers which are ideal, they are here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356

no panic if not, you can still print from your ipad/iphone etc to a printer using a third party app. the one that seems particularly popular is print n share which i use. good luck

Can you set the Canon PIXMA MX 870 to print a confirmation page after every fax sent?

Yes. Press Setup and navigate (right/left arrows) to Device Settings. Then press OK. Next navigate to Fax Settings (up/down arrows) followed by OK. Select TX Report (again the up/down arrows followed by OK). Select the Print for each TX option (up/down arrows) and press OK again. Then press Fax to return to the standby mode.

I hope this helps.
