Pixma MG7520 turns on but shuts off before I can access menu

[leafstar]

My Canon MG7520 was working perfectly until yesterday. It kept shutting itself off yesterday. Today it would start the process of turning on, but turn off before it would get to the menu. I know it's getting older, but it's worked so well until now. Is there anything I can do?

Exact same thing happened to me.  If I unplug my internet and wifi I am able to turn printer on and can print via usb. If I plug wifi and internet back in print shuts off and will not turn back on. I shut my wifi setting off in the printer so it can not automatically connect. This is a work around for now. I believe Canon definitely is doing something via internet with their printers.

Disconntecting it from the wifi got mine running. But that seems to be the extent of it for now.

Yep same here. The minute I would reconnect my internet and the printer picked it up it would shut off the printer and I would be back at square one. I ended up resetting my printer back to factory when it was disconnected from internet so it can not pick up the internet anymore and so far it has stayed on. I just have to use a usb now which really makes me mad because I do a lot of printing via wifi.

Pixma Mg7520 - Exact same issue. Turns on and then off when Wifi is connected. Operates when no Wifi is connected. Happened at the exact same time as everyone else. I hope Cannon reads this and fixes whatever is going on with their printers.

Same here. I don’t have the patience to print from a USB since what I’m trying to print is from my phone. I hope there’s a solution, I just bought a ton of ink cartridges!

In the same boat as you all. Had a perfectly working printer one day and the next day it’s all messed up! Terrible timing for me personally as I’ll be a first-year teacher in the fall and I’m trying to print and prep all of the things. I sure do hope Canon makes this right… really not wanting to spend a few hundred dollars on a new printer when I know mine was just fine!!!

How do you turn the Wi-Fi off in the printer?? Mine won’t stay on long enough for me to get to the settings…
