"Error D210 your ColorSync or Canon profiles...."
I've just installed Mac OS 8.5 and my printer will no longer work.
Firstly make sure you are using v2.04 or higher printer drivers. It may also be caused by the coloursync profiles have been installed by the installer in the incorrect location. Previous versions of the MAC OS install into system\preferences\colorsync profiles. MacOS 8 and above now has the default location in system\colorsync profiles. The fix is to move all the profiles into system\colorsync profiles.
Problems with Cartridge Detection
- Power off the printer
- Unplug the printer's power cord, wait 5 seconds then replug the power cord in.
- Hold the Power button for 6 Beeps
- Release the Power Button
This will reset the printer and should resolve incorrect cartridge detection problems.
