PIXMA TR8620a Firmware update: Does it take all day?

bplague — Tue, 09 Sep 2025 18:07:32 GMT

I have a Pixma Tr8602A that is about 3yrs old. During all that time, I never had any problem nor any type of Canon Tech communication. Today, I was working on a report which I had sent to the printer 2x ( I can see them in Queue). When I looked at the screen, there was a message there telling me there was a new firmware update----Update or not??. So I chose to download it. THAT was over an hour ago. I never interrupt any running programs on my computers and am hesitate to do so with the printer but I can not sit here all day either. Suggestions?? The printer is on the same network as my computers, TVS, etc. No problems with any of them???

THE MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN SAYS: Preparing, please wait momentarily

You don't have to wait for it. Let it do its thing and go about your day.
