Try to download the driver software that could be found in the Canon download center/support website. Here's the link:

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_series/pixma_mp450#DriversAndSoftware

Also, make sure to download the compatible driver software. Remember that Mac OS has different versions.
