I uninstalled printer-reinstalled checked to install new printer driver - It installed same driver. Says the best driver is already installed.

I found more info

Version:1.0 StartHTML:000000250 EndHTML:000007003 StartFragment:000006078 EndFragment:000006953 StartSelection:000006078 EndSelection:000006949 SourceURL:http://www.devicedriverfinder.com/blog/device-drivers/false-positives-in-driver-updatesFalse Positives in Driver Updates | DeviceDriverFinder.com

False Positives in Driver Updates

July 19th, 2010

Programs that automatically update device drives on your system need to match the hardware in your system with the devices in their database. Once a match is found, they check the driver version to see if it is newer, so the update can be recommended.

That sounds pretty simple, doesnâ€™t it?

Well, in a way it is, but still it is possible that a driver update program recommends a program that should not be installed on your system. We call this a false positive. There are two possible reasons for a false positive in driver updates, a device mismatch and a driver version mismatch.

I checked Canon.com and my printer isn't listed.

Hello!

PIXMA MG5200 is the series number, not the model number! You should see the exact model number on the front of the printer, bottom left corner. We think it might be the MG5220. Once you find this please let us know the model number if you still can't find it on the support list!

Thanks!
