PIXMA MX452: Unable to print wirelessly

Beau247 — Sat, 31 Aug 2024 03:18:14 GMT

I'm having issues printing from my HP laptop to a Canon Pixma MC450. I configured the printer and was able to print a test page wirelessly, but when I try to print from the laptop, it doesn't work unless I connect directly to the printer. I’ve tried rebooting and unplugging, but nothing seems to help.

Windows 11, no error message however the print job is sent to the queue but doesn’t print! The printer was set to print offline when I changed the spooling an the word error appears next to the printer but either way it still will not print wirelessly but the blue light is solid on the printer

Any suggestions? Update drivers, any thing to check on the laptop, reconfigure the WiFi?

Hi, Beau247!

I regret to inform you that your printer has been retired. Canon USA no longer supports it, and no drivers or software are being developed for it. Canon doesn't make a MC450, but we have a MP450 that was retired in 2009, and an MX452 that was retired in 2023.

Since your printer is no longer compatible with your modern operating system, we recommend contacting the Canon Upgrade Program for details on a discount on a modern printer. They're at 800-385-2155.
