My IPF 5100 printer has worked beautifully with CS4 and CS5 with the Canon printer plug-in.
Since installing CS6 I haven't been able to install the printer plug-in and I haven't been able to find an updated plug-in.
Has anyone else experienced this, or found a work-around to get CS6 to see the older printer plug-in?

Richard, you SHOULD just be able to drag the 5100 folder into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins and it should work. I'm assuming you are running the 64-bit version of PS CS6. Also make sure you run PS "As Administrator" if you're running Vista or 7 or 8, Adobe is notorious for leveraging the Windows Registry which needs Admin access, and even those in the Admin group on a Vista/7/8 PC run as User unless you specify Run As Administrator. Not sure if any of this gibberish is helpful, but hopefully!

If you're running the CS4 version, try downloading and running the CS5 version in CS6. There are some forum entries I've found that indicate others have had that work for them.
