Canon iP4000 wireless printing via Airport?
Has anyone successfully set up the Canon iP4000 for printing on an
Airport or Airport Extreme wireless network using a USB connection to the base station? I'm currently using Mac OS 10.2.8, have an Airport Extreme wireless network, and need a new printer. The Canon iP4000 replaces the Canon i860 which is reported to be compatible with printing via Airport's wireless print server (Rendezvous technology). I've asked Canon support this question and they will not say whether it will work or not. -- To email me use: sjusenet AT comcast DOT net |

First I hope you mean the iP400R and not the ip4000 as the 'R' is the one that is supported for network connection including Apples Airport. |

No I am refering to connecting the iP4000 to the USB connection of the Airport Extreme Base Station or the USB connection of the newer Airport Express. To work on a wireless network with this connection, the printer does not need to have built-in not the recently announced iP4000R which has WiFi (IEEE802.11g) print server technology built in. The R version of the printer is much more expensive. -- To email me use: sjusenet AT comcast DOT net |

Canon totally unhelpful. Any suggestions appreciated! -- Des ONeill |
