"ports that cannot be used with their current settings"

Hi all,

 

So what does "There are ports that can not be used with their current settings" mean? Am attempting to connect to a Canon MG3500 series printer via wireless.

 

Regards,

Old Man

Hi!

So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know the version of Windows or Mac in use.

Thanks and have a great day!

 

Windows 7

 

 

I've since tried a reinstall and the Canon printer does not seem to recognize my wireless network even after, as instructed, pressing the WPS button on my cable modem ...

 

I fear this printer is rapidly becoming a paper-weight

 

I started to get this message yesterday. I got it while trying to use my MG7120, gave up trying to make it work and bought a new MX492. I am running Windowa 10 on an ACER Aspire ES 15 and a D-Link router. I don't think the router is the problem as I linked directly from the printer to the MG7120 and it wouldn't print!

I obviously was very frustrated yesterday as my post is not very clear! Neither printer will work, and the older printer would not work when connected directly to my laptop, so I assume the problem is with the ports on my laptop. Why can't Canon anticipate problems like this and allow for it in their software?
