Two main points are important in setting up Canon models and one is – Canon printer driver downloads, and the other is hardware setup. You can swap both first and last. We’ll install the software first, then hardware setup.
• Step 1 – Prepare Your Canon Printer
Ensure you already have set up your canon printer hardware with a power connection. Next, configure the hardware screen and prepare your printer.
• Step 2 – Go to Canon Official Webpage
Open a web browser on your PC or laptop, enter canon.com/ijsetup URL on the web search address tab, and click “Set Up (Start Here)” to jump next.
• Step 3 – Enter Your Canon Printer Model
See your printer’s front or top to find the model name, then enter it on the canon official site when the model name box appears. You also can scroll down the page and select your Canon printer.
• Step 4 – Click Download To Start Software Download
You are on the Download page, hence check or select the current OS from the right top. Then, click on the “Download” tab and select an option like Save, Save As prompts.
• Step 5 – Tap WiFi or Select “Wireless LAN” on Your Printer
This step is dependable on your Printer type. If the printer has a direct button, then Press “Direct,” otherwise, press the “WiFi” or WPS button or select “Wireless LAN” from the display.
• Step 6 – Press the WPS button on Your Wireless Router
Make sure your router is turned on, then push the WPS button. The lights will blink to connect the WiFi/wireless network with your inkjet printer.
• Step 7 – WiFi Is Connected To Your Printer
If you see stable WiFi lights on your printer or a “Connected” status, the canon model is connected to WiFi or a wireless network.
• Step 8 – Run The Installer File On Your PC, Laptop
Now, find the file location that you downloaded from canon.com/ijsetup and double-click to start the installation on your PC. Make sure you accept software license terms.
• Step 9 – Select Installation Connection Method
The installation screen shows a few connection methods, hence you have to select WPS or wireless connection method option and follow on-screen instructions.
• Step 10 – Finish the Canon Printer Wireless Setup
If the printer list appears, select your Printer model name and add it to your system. You can otherwise add the printer manually from the start menu. You are done with Canon Inkjet Wireless Printer Setup.
