Laptop not recognizing USB connection

Saywhat513 — Fri, 13 Oct 2017 02:00:22 GMT

My printer will not connect to my laptop via USB I tried printing from a different laptop and it worked perfectly fine. How do I delete and redownload my printer so it recognizes it? Or is there another solution I am missing?

Thanks for that information. The most current drivers are available for download from the Canon website.

Disconnect the USB cable.

Scroll down to "Optional Drivers."
Click “Select” next to "MG3600 series MP Drivers."
Press "Download."
Open and run the file.
Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.

The installation program will prompt you when to reconnect the USB cable.
