My nem computer runs on Windows10. I already installer my Canon212w printer-scanner,. I have MF toolbox, but it says it's not installed. How can I use my scanner if it's connected by wi-fi.

I wish someone would just start at the beginning and explain how to connect the mf212 to wifi, Windows 10. I struggle to get my printer working especially if it magically goes "off-line". Great printer/scanner, poor connectivity instructions.

Hi rajnaim.

 

If you haven't yet done so, you'll need to install the latest version of the driver (not the CD version), as well as the patch, both available free of charge on the MF212w Drivers & Downloads page.  If you have trouble setting the MF212w up to your wireless network, you may use the Wireless Setup Assistant, found on the Software tab of the same page.
