Support Communities / Mac OS & System Software / OS X. My Canon MP980 will not print. I can print a test page sent from the Utility setting of the driver, but. This is a handy application that was created especially to help you print your scans in the highest quality if you use a Canon PIXMA MP980 Wireless Photo All-In-One Printer device. Why does Canon MP980 Drivers matter? Well, Canon MP980 software and Software play an important role in regards to functioning the device. With Drivers for Canon MP980 set up on the windows or mac computer system, customers have full accessibility and the choice for using Canon MP980 functions.

The last driver that Canon released for the MP980 was for OS X 10.9. I know this driver can be installed and work on 10.11 so here is a link to that driver. Given that you cannot get the Gutenprint driver to work as well then something may be amiss with the transport to the printer, whether that be via USB port, Ethernet or WiFi. Note the print you mention from the Canon utility is just a command sent to the printer - not an actual test print.

So before installing the driver I have linked to above, open Printers & Scanners and remove the MP980 printer. Then open Finder and from the Go menu, select Go to Folder. Then copy the following line below and paste that into the Go field and then press the Go button.

/Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter

Here you will see all the contents of the Canon BJPrinter folder. Select all the folders and trash them. Then restart the Mac. After you log back in, run the MP980 printer driver installer and when that has completed, add the printer. Now see if this works.
