This wikiHow teaches you how to connect and set up a Canon wireless printer with your Windows or Mac computer. You can do this by connecting over the Internet, connecting the printer to your computer via a USB cable, or allowing the printer to install and connect itself.
Steps
Preparing to install
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/49/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-01.jpg/v4-728px-Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer- Step-01.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/49/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-01.jpg/v4-728px-Install- Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-01.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
You need to make sure the printer is connected and turned on. If the printer uses an Ethernet connection to access the Internet, you will need an Ethernet cable to plug the printer into the router.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/90/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-02.jpg/v4-728px-Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer- Step-02.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/90/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-02.jpg/v4-728px-Install- Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-02.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Check the printer’s software settings. If the printer comes with a CD, you’ll need to put the CD in your computer and allow the pre-installation program to run to set up the printer.
- Printers these days rarely install using a disc, but some older printers will need an installation CD to connect.
- To install using a CD, simply insert the disc into your computer’s CD tray, then follow the on-screen instructions. With Mac computers, you will need an external CD player.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4e/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-03.jpg/v4-728px-Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer- Step-03.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4e/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-03.jpg/v4-728px-Install- Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-03.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Connect the printer to the network. Often we will use the LCD screen of the printer to select the Wi-Fi network and enter the password.
- Check your printer’s manual to see how the specific printer model connects to the Internet.
- You can find the version of the manual on the Canon website by clicking SUPPORT , selecting MANUALS in the drop-down menu, clicking Printers , and looking for the machine’s model number.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/75/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-04.jpg/v4-728px-Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer- Step-04.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/75/Install-Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-04.jpg/v4-728px-Install- Canon-Wireless-Printer-Step-04.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Make sure the computer is on the same network as the printer. In order for the wireless printer to receive commands from the computer, both devices must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- If the printer accesses a different Wi-Fi network than the computer’s network, change the Wi-Fi network on the computer before continuing.
