The 2.05 driver will not allow printer sharing either between the Mac it is connected to and other Macs or Windows machines. This worked perfectly under Leopard. I had the printer shared and was printing from my XP machine and Vista machine. I've contacted Canon and they are so far uncooperative/unresponsive. I have no idea if a fix is coming. Here is a link to a thread I started on the Apple Support Forum detailing the issue: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2276282 Unfortunately, once I upgraded to Snow Leopard I found another HUGE limitation (at least for me).

Haven't tested extensively yet, but it no longer garbles the second and subsequent pages, and duplex printing works just fine. Grateful that it works now, yet wondering why it took Canon nearly three months after Snow Leopard was released to get it right?

I contacted Canon yesterday complaining about the current SL driver for the MF4150 and received no response. However, when I went out there today they had released the v2.05 driver! http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=DownloadDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=335&modelid=14444 I still have not upgraded to Snow Leopard due to this issue. Can someone upgrade their driver and see if it fixed the problem of not being able to print multiple pages and/or duplex printing? david@davidtaylorfamily.com HEY!

Only the first page could be printed properly by UFR II 2.0.0. Exactly the same issue with my MF4120. Only the first page could be printed properly by UFR II 2.0.0.

Even I don't use Duplex print at all, but I did send them email regarding this issue, but their response is really "official", saying that the problem is too complex and I need to call them. OK then I called them, the technician guide me through everything, like all the setting stuffs, but eventually, the problem is not solved. @DaveW

Despite their promise to acknowledge the request within 30 minutes and get back within 24 hours, I haven't had any response from them (even checked my spam folder, nothing). This really is a great little printer, but Canon's support for it is sadly lacking, at least for Mac users.
