    Canon IR 3235 network printing issues

    Hello everybody

    I want to setup an IR3235 in my office
    I'm n00b in copiers ...

    I was able to install scanning over network without problems :
    iR got an IP on the network, I can Ping it, and I can "push" scans to my PC with Color Network ScanGear

    BUT I'm freeze on printing !!!

    PC win XP SP3
    I have tried PLC, UDF and PS drivers... no way !!!
    My printing datas stay blocked on the PC

    Anyone can help ?

    Best Regards
    Miki

    Does it have a print boot rom? Is it a 3025 or 3025i? Only the i models have a print rom as standard.

      Also if it does have a print boot rom, can you try printing using a laptop hooked up via crossover cable to the copier?

        Hi Masters, thanks for reply !

        even direct printing with crossover cable does not work

        It's an 3235 not a 3235i

        As i understand printing capacity is an option ...

        On 3235, how do you check if the print boot rom option is installed ?

          Go into service mode and check the version of the Boot-Rom. Should also check to see that firmware for printing e.g. PS/PCL is installed as well.

          You'll need a tech to bring a print boot rom, install it and update the firmware using SST if you want to get printing to work if you don't have the boot-rom and/or the necessary firmware installed on the copier. So you'll need to decide whether this is worth the cost.

            I have a tramp in service mode

            copier _ display _ version _ BOOTROM = 01.20
            copier _ display _ version _ SYSTEM = 01.55 02.35 10.09 00.25
            copier _ display _ version _ ROOT = 01.28

            copier _ display _ ACC-STS _ PS/PCL = 0

              If you press the "123" key for the counters, then hit device configuration. You should see UFR and PCL in the options, if not you need a print kit - this is a MEAP application.

                You should be using a UFR driver rather PS, PCL. Ufr is the standard driver, unless you require post script or PCl printing you need extra accessories to do so.

                There's is no bootrom require because the program is activated with LMS.

                    No UFR option
                    No PCL option


                    You should be using a UFR driver .....There's is no bootrom require because the program is activated with LMS
                    I'm using UFR II drivers - > ok

                    So I need to activate a software option using MEAP & LMS ?

                    If I'm right, can you tell me more about the procedure ?

                    I'm totaly new with this machine... I'm the final user

                    With Best Regards and Many Thanks

                      If printing is the only thing that your concern about, forget about meap in this situation. All you need to do is get the printer kit, its a certificate, go to a canon website and get the license and activated. You must purchase the kit from a canon authorized dealer or from canon. Get yourself a quote price.

                        ===

                        This device is not bootrom based.

                        Print options are license based.

                        Verify the device configuration in Counter Check

                        Otherwise this device only prints using the UFRII driver.
