According to FAQ, I can start (post) a question by clicking on the REPLY at top left of message list. I see no Reply there. or any other way to begin a discussion on a topic, i.e., to POST. What am I missing?

Greetings,
To start your own conversation or topic, press the "Start A Conversation" button. at the top of any form section.
Give your topic a title, and use the drop down below to select the forum location or section your question pertains to.
To reply to a existing topic, there is a big red reply button at the bottom of each post in a thread. There is also a post reply button below the last reply on every thread.

TY Ricj. I must be doing something wrong then, because the only part of the board where I can press anything to start a conversation is on General Discussion. I looked at icons on top, the OPTIONS (3 dots), heading selections (
and expansion of them, etc. No "Start a Conversation" except for General Discussion. Could some settings prevent this?
Note: My last place to search was when I presses the large CANON icon to go to home, I guess. Start a Conversation is there! Maybe I need to ensure I begin at that URL address instead of the one I jumped to (a specific topic) where I am not presented with it or a "Reply" in upper left as per FAQ. I currently strated one again in General Discussion with my printer problem -- hope that makes it to the specific topic somehow

i am having the same problem. What is a "form section"? I am at https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/151867 and there's no form section that I can find.

LA248,
The web address that you provided is your user profile. You don t want to be there.
Back out and tap on the tab that says, "Discussions & Help. That will open up several subcategories.

The top of the page, the header has a menu as shown below. Click on one of the main menu items and select the forum you wish to post or read.

Once inside of the selected forum, just under the header you will find a red button center, slightly right that says START A CONVERSATION. Press that button and rock and roll.
