Greetings,

Sorry you are having problems.  What you did isn't clear from your post.  Did you run the installer, or did you put that file into the windows/system32/drivers folder?  You need to run the application for the drivers to be installed. 

 

Various methods of installing?  There is only one way.  See these set up instructions: Begin with Step 7

The printer should not be connected until the very end (after) the drivers are installed.

Thank you for your response with the attachment.

My printer works on Windows XP operating system (32bit). Difficulty I have is to make it to work on Windows 10  64bit operating system.  On  Canon web site a printer driver for Windows10 64 bit is available which I installed in folder Windows/system32/driver lin my computer. I am getting the error message "the driver is not installed". I am not clear whether the reason for this message is an error in tha problem or something I am not doing correctly. Note, when I was installing Windows 10 driver I disconnected the printer USB cable. 

Hi chinc.

 

When installing, are you askng Windows to search for the driver on the web, or are you browsing manually to select the driver?
