Have spent a lot of time trying to connect my printer to a new (different) wifi. I know it’s probably easy but I keep going in circles with the new setup. I have canon print on my iPad but can’t find anything there that helps. Go through new setup - can’t get there. HELP

Greetings,
As long as the new router is broadcasting a 2.4Ghz network supporting WPA2 encryption, you should be able to re-establish connectivity by running the set up / installation software again. This is what allows you to change the SSID name and password.
The part that is usually missed is putting the printer into Wireless SetUp mode.

Using a computer is the easiest method.

Rick - thanks for this info. My available wireless services are not a problem. When I try to get into a set-up screen, it always directs me to Canonprint which I already have from when I initially set it up and connected to a WI-FI I don’t use nw. There is nothing that comes up in Canonprint that leads to any setup screen or ways to change wifi settings. I’ve even downloaded a new canonprint and this doesn’t help. I can get the first few steps easily - to get the blinking light on the wifi button, but can never get to the pages from there to do the wireless setup. It’s a cycle I’ve been through no less that 20 times - my frustration level is about maxed out. Unfortunately my 11 year old granddaughter isn’t here to help. I’m pretty sure at this point I need to find someone to come and do this for me. It was so easy the first time. I appreciate your attempt. Bev
