CNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize.kext was installed improperly

After installing Snow Leopard and the HP printer drivers software update, the following warning message appeared:

The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/CNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.

According to this thread on the Apple discussion boards, CNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize is an old kernel extension for Canon printers that is no longer compatible with—or needed for—Mac OS X. Since deleting the file, I haven’t seen the warning message again.

  1. I installed the scannerdriver for the Canon lide 60. (lide60osx11131en.dmg). I got an error about theCNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize.kext file.

    After deleting the CNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize.kext file my system SL 10.6 OSX recognized the Canon Lide 60. Now my Vuscan 8.5.0.7 software works nice withe the Canon Lide 60 scanner.

    System OSX 10.6.2
    Delete: “/System/Library/Extensions/CNQL1212_ClassicNotSeize.kext”
