Suddenly (after 2 years) having driver problems with Kyocera CS2550. Mac OS 10.6.3, printer is on an airport network which is functioning normally. Print error every time is "The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the printer?s software or contact the manufacturer for assistance." Have gone to Kyocera website and downloaded latest driver, re-installed multiple times, deleted and re-added printer etc. etc.

It is obvious to me that the problem u have is the printer is not communicating with the computer and i also think the printer is defective and is the source of this loss of communication, as to what is causing this will take a skilled tech to figure out though testing. in the end you may find it cheaper to replace than repair based on current labor rates for this type of diagnosis and repair..

    Thanks but I have it figured out. I found a different driver on a third-party site (not Kyocera) and all is well.

Kyocera Printer Drivers and Mac OS® X 10.5 Leopard FAQ:
Is the installation for Mac OS X 10.5 the same as for Mac OS X 10.4 and earlier? Mac OS X 10.5 introduced a new printing architecture that requires changes to the installer and installation process. For this reason, Mac OS X 10.5 requires a new printer driver installer.

I cannot see my Kyocera AppleTalk® printer. How can I make it visible to OS X 10.5? AppleTalk is disabled by default in Mac OS X 10.5. Enable AppleTalk to discover your Kyocera printer.If you use the Kyocera installer, a message will appear, asking you to enable AppleTalk. Click Yes to continue the installation.

I cannot find Printer Setup Utility on Mac OS X 10.5. Is it still supported? Apple has removed Printer Setup Utility from Mac OS X 10.5. To install a printer, open System Preferences and click Print & Fax.

When I manually install a printer, multiple PPD files are listed for the same Kyocera model. Which should I choose? When manually installing a printer or changing a PPD for a installed printer, both Linux and Mac OS X PPDs are listed for some older Kyocera models due to a change in PPD handling in Mac OS X 10.5. Linux PPDs can be identified by the word Gutenprint in the PPD filenames.

Supported Multifunction Printers: KM-1650, KM-1815, KM-1820, KM-2050 ,KM-2530 ,KM-2550, KM-3035, KM-3050, KM-3530, KM-4030, KM-4035, KM-4050, KM-4530, KM-5035, KM-5050, KM-5530, KM-6030, KM-6330, KM-7530, KM-8030, KM-C830, KM-C830D, KM-C850, KM-C850D, KM-C2520, KMC2525E, KM-C2630, KM-C3225, KM-C3225E, KM-C3232, KM-C3232E, KM-C4008, KM-C4035E, CS-1650, CS-1815, CS-1820, CS-2050,CS-C2525E, CS-2550, CS-6030, or newer.

Canon MX310 - I'm trying to connect this printer to my network. Currently, I have the printer connected to an Airport Express but when I try to print from my iMac, I get a message that the printer is...

Adkinsdave, keep in mind that often having someone remotely connect to your computer with you and perform this task is easier than trying to walk you through steps and potentially missing a step. With that being said, the Airport Express was meant to make setting up a WiFi network in your own home a breeze.
We need to first determine if your Canon PIXMA MX310 has a Mac driver. According to the Downloads page at Canon.com, there are several Mac drivers available for OS X, 10.5 and 10.6: usa.canon.com - simply choose your OS on the pulldown from that website. Once your computer has the driver it needs to communicate with the printer, you can use your Airport Express to connect to the printer.
Obviously, make sure the printer is turned on and once you go through the Airport Express connect guide you should be printing in no time.
Let us know if there are still issues.

I'm using Mac OS 10.5.6 and the Kyocera KM-3035 prints my documents with missing letters, words, sometimes whole paragraphs. I've uninstalled and re-installed the driver to no avail. What else can I do?

use the generic print driver in mac and tune it with this tutorial also set the press printer on the copier and set emulation to kpdl auto... also see if you can make the driver spool...

if that doesn't work... then try moving a zipped 10 mb file from one pc to another on your network... make sure one pc or laptop is connected where your copier is... if you open the zipped file and its corrupted... then the problem isn't your copier... its your network...

Kyocera 3820n doesn't work right on my macbook OS X 10.5

if you have a mac os x operating system... you already have drivers built into your mac printer menu... try installing the generic print driver and see if that helps... sometimes it works better than the manufacturer's driver...

MAC problem with km-3050

What MAC OS are you using? I don't remember for OS 9 and earlier but if you are using OS X I can help you out. First make sure you are using the latest version of the print driver. When you open a document to print and select the Kyocera printer you will see the print dialog box. You need to look under the printer specific options to find the job accounting. I believe it is under set 2.

Hope this helps.
