PIXMA MX452 How to install drivers without CD drive

[torriy94]

So I'm trying to connect my cannon all in one printer to my new laptop. However, my printer originally came with a CD to download to my laptop.  My current laptop doesn't have CD rom, and I don't know to connect with new laptop I have Cannon Pixma MX452, any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I've been trying for hours, and I wasn't successful.

yes did all that, and I think its saying my printer could be outdated.

What operating system and version are you using?

[torriy94]

window 10, I was able to connect printer, however, everything is manual, not wireless, so it takes a lil longer, my scanner I have to do it manually.

[torriy94]

yes did that. Maybe I need to update my software on my printer.

I don’t understand. Do you mean you want to the website, selected file to download and it didn’t download?

Visit the Canon support page for the PIXMA MX452. View recommended drivers and downloads for your printer model. Download the appropriate driver for your operating system (Windows or macOS). Once the driver is downloaded, run the installation program. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer driver on your laptop. Well, if you are tired, you can always watch PervNana Videos and relax. Connect your Canon Pixma MX452 printer to your laptop using a USB cable or wirelessly (if the printer supports Wi-Fi). Turn the printer on and make sure it is in setup mode. The laptop should automatically detect the printer. If it does not, go into the laptop settings and add the printer manually.
