PIXMA PRO-100 SET UP ISSUES

[etommyy1019]

Hello, I just got a Pixma Pro-100 and cannot get it completely it set up. It came with a CD for set up and none of my devices have a CD drive. I tried to go on the website to see what I needed to download and downloaded a driver and it said install was complete but the driver is nowhere on my laptop. I am using my Macbook Pro Monterey currently, but would it be better if I used my PC? I want to get the printer set up on Wifi so I can print that way. If I use the USB cable that came with the printer will I be able to print that way? I don't want to reply on a cable all the time but just want to be able to start printing. Sorry for all the questions, this is the first printer I have ever set up. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!

Welcome.

Lets work on PC first. This is the file you want to download:

 1. power off your printer and unplug USB cable from computer (if not already in that condition).

2. double click on the file you just downloaded and follow the instructions to connect and setup the printer.

3. when you are up and running come back and we can work on the MacBook.

Does the printer have to be plugged into the PC? My PC is upstairs and I don’t have a spot to put the printer. The printer is currently downstairs.

Follow these steps then:

Wi-Fi Connect of a PRO-100 for Windows

I will be away from my computer for a few hours, but this should get you running.
