2.When installing from the installer, some of the functions of the driver may not operate correctly when the driver module is run. If this happens, first quit all applications or restart the operating system, then start the product.
3.When uninstalling from the installer, you may not be able to uninstall correctly when the driver module is run. If this happens, first quit all applications, then begin uninstalling.
4.To install the fax driver under a multi-user environment, log on to the computer as Administrator.
5.Depending on the application software used, dialog boxes opened from the Print dialog box may be hidden behind the Print dialog box.
6.An error may occur if the following operations are performed during sending a fax:
- Searching for a USB connected printer in the [Printer Setup Utility]/[System Preferences]
- Connecting another USB printer to the computer
- Sending a second job to a different USB printer while a job is being completed at a USB printer
7.If you cannot get the fax information correctly when you select [Print] - [Get Printer Information] in the fax monitor, then the fax driver is not operating correctly. If this happens, check the connection between the fax and the computer and click [Print] - [Get Printer Information] again.
8.When you connect two faxes of the same model to your computer through the USB connection, you can only send from one of the faxes.
9.If you change the setting for [Presets] in the Print dialog box, an error may occur. In this case, display the preview once before sending.
10.If you have registered the fax with bidirectional printing, and have changed the department ID management settings at the device, select [Print] - [Get Printer Information] in the fax monitor to update the information.
11.If you have registered the fax with unidirectional printing, you cannot use optional functions that are not supported by the printer, regardless of whether they can be set.
12.If you are using Macromedia FreeHand 10.00/FreeHand MX11.00, the application software will close and you cannot send documents correctly. This problem does not occur if you are using FreeHand MX11.02.
13.The settings for [Copies] and [Collated] are ignored because only one copy is allowed per output in this product.
14.If the Help is not displayed when you click the [?] button in the [Print] dialog box, perform the following procedure.
Select the [Help] menu that is in [Finder] and most Mac applications. Move the pointer over the [Home] button and select [Canon Fax Driver Help] from the pop-up menu that is displayed when you press the mouse button for several seconds.
15.If your fax machine also have PostScript printing function, follow the steps below to add a printer via a USB connection.
1. Open the [Printer Setup Utility] or [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan] from [System Preferences].
2. Turn on your printer then connect it to the computer with a USB cable.
3. Confirm that the printer name is displayed in the [Printer List] or [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan] with "Generic PostScript Printer" displayed in the Kind column. Make sure to leave it in the [Printer List] or [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan].
4. Add the printer using the [Printer Setup Utility] or [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan] from [System Preferences] as instructed in the Canon Fax Driver Installation Guide.
5. Pull out the USB cable from the printer, then plug it in again.
6. When you print, select the printer added in step 4.
NOTE:
If you have deleted the Generic PostScript Printer that was added automatically in step 3, delete the printer that you added in step 4, then follow the procedure from steps 1 to 6 again. If the printer starts to print during the above procedure, cancel the print job on the panel of the printer.
16.This fax driver works under CUPS (Common Unix Printing System). Up to 32 printers that use CUPS drivers can be added in the [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan] pane in [System Preferences].

If the fax data that generated the error message is still in the print queue, delete the fax data. To send the fax data to the correct destination, instead of clicking the [Print] button in the [Print] dialog box of the application, open the [Print] dialog box of the fax driver and confirm the address, then click the [Print] button.
20.When you install this printer driver using the installer, the amount of disk space displayed in [Approximate disk space needed] is less than the actual amount that is needed when installing. Before installing, confirm that your computer has enough free disk space.
21.Depending on the printer model you are using, performance of your Macintosh and the data you are sending, sending may not start or may stop due to a time out error. In this case, specify a longer time out period or select Off in the Error Time Out setting under Printer Settings on the control panel of the printer.
22.If you have discovered that the printer cable is disconnected while a fax document is being sent to the fax, and have reconnected the cable and continued sending the fax document, there is still a possibility that the document is not transmitted correctly. If the document has not been transmitted correctly, fax the document again. If you still cannot transmit the fax document, restart the fax and transmit the fax document again.
23.If you are using Adobe Photoshop CS5, be sure to register the printer you are using in [System Preferences] first.

Also, if you cannot open the [Print Settings] dialog box, change [Printer] to an output destination whose [Print Settings] dialog box you can open, open the [Print Settings] dialog box and save the print settings, and select the fax you want to use from the [Print] dialog box.
24.When importing an extended LDIF format (*.abk) address book file that has been exported from another fax model, importing may fail or some characters may not be displayed correctly. If this happens, you can correctly import the address book file into the device using the fax driver, by following the procedure below.
1. Execute the procedure described in "Importing Address Book Entries" in the online help.
2. Recreate the extended LDIF format (*.abk) address book file according to the procedure described in "Exporting Address Book Entries" in the online help.
3. Import the extended LDIF format (*.abk) address book file that was recreated in step 2.
25.Fax jobs may not be executed when restarted if you perform stop and restart or hold and restart in the print queue dialog box. If this happens, send them again from the [Print] dialog box.

Also, when you open the [General Settings] preferences pane from the [Print] dialog box, an alert may be displayed saying that you cannot use the address book.
If this happens, restart the application. Also, save the data before opening the [Print] dialog box.
30.If you are using OS X Lion or later, you may not be able to use the address book and cover sheet functions in some applications. If this happens, use another application or convert the application data to PDF format and apply the relevant function(s) in an application other than Preview that supports PDF files.
31.If you are using OS X Lion or later, and when you import an address book file on a server and disconnect from the server with the [Print] dialog box open, the application may not close correctly. Close the [Print] dialog box, then disconnect from the server.
