I am having trouble installing an IX6550 printer. The PC is running Windows XP. The installation proceeds as far as connecting the USB cable and turning on the printer. I get a message box saying 'Found new hardware Canon IX6550 series'. It then starts to copy files but then another box comes up saying -
Found new hardware wizard
There was a problem installing this hardware
An error occurred during the installof this device
Access denied
Has anyone experienced this. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
