Completedall of this up to connect the USB and turn printer on. The software does not detect the printer and eventually shows "cannot detect printer". However windows loads an Inkjet Multifunction Printer which recognizes it as a Canon MG3600 but states driver is unavailable.

Since the printer is still not being detected when you try to install the driver, I recommend restarting the Windows Print Spooler after you uninstall the printer. Please DO NOT connect the USB cable until the setup program asks you to turn the printer on and connect that cable.


When the file has finished downloading, please run it. When the setup program asks you to select a Connection method, please choose the USB option. When the program asks you to turn the printer on, please do that and then connect the USB cable.


Should you need to write back, please let us know if you have any security programs running on your computer and if you have checked with the security software manufacturer to make sure it is not interfering with the printer detection. We will also need to know how long your USB cable is and if it is connected directly to a USB port on your computer.


The same issue as before. the Cannon software cannot detect the printer yet windows 11 installs an "inkjet multifunction printer with driver unavailable. When I go into it it states it is for a Canon MG3600 series. So it seems that windows can see it but your software cannot. I am running McAfee but turned off both firewall and virus scanner with same results. Are you drivers loaded in windows 11? As they don't seem to be


I am having the same issue. I never had problems before installing windows 11. My other devices are able to print via air print. My windows 11 computers cannot find the printer no matter how many times in uninstall and reinstall. Please update the drivers to work properly with windows 11. Very frustrating. I have my doubts that this issue will be resolved based on what I see above.


I am sorry but I have been sick with Covid so not had a chance to complete any of this. The Canon printer worked with windows before I upgraded to Windows 11. So there is no reason for me to go back to 10 at this stage as I know it works.


To be brutally honest I have been reading about this and so many people are having the issue. It needs someone from Microsoft and someone from canon to talk to one another. Because guess what....Canon blame you and you blame Canon and the customers of both get nothing but finger pointing.


The Canon G7020 is listed in About AirPrint - Apple Support as a model supporting Apple's AirPrint technology. This means that macOS 14 Sonoma printing should not require an extra driver, nor any other software, provided that the printer and the Mac computer are connected to the same network (Wi-Fi router). Is this the way your printer is connected?


Canon keeps updating Canon MG3600 drivers. To get them, you need to go to the Canon support website, find the driver corresponding with your specific flavor of Windows version (for example, Windows 32 bit) and download the driver manually. Follow the instructions below:

Nowadays, being wireless is a must, and the Canon MG3600 does not disappoint. With its top-notch Wi-Fi features, connecting becomes a breeze. It supports a range of Wireless LAN standards like IEEE802.11n, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11b. And for those who prefer a wired setup, the printer also sports a high-speed USB port.


Keeping drivers up-to-date is crucial for the smooth operation of any device, not just printers.

An outdated or corrupt driver can lead to reduced printer performance, causing issues like incorrect color rendering or even complete printer failure. Regular updates also often come with improvements, optimizing your device for better speed and efficiency.


I have a canon Pixma MG2500 series 2570 printer that is 3 years old, and I wanted to test if it would work before scrapping it.To day I installed the drivers from this Canon official websiteeverything worked fine(upto installation) but then I tried to scan something and then it displayed the following message:

If a reliable printer suddenly malfunctions and throws up that error message, it may be linked to an outdated or incompatible driver. It could even be that the printer driver became faulty and stopped responding to system commands.


Of course, not every printer issue is software-related. It could be due to wear and tear on an old printing device. A printer that has fallen into disuse or underuse may also not work so well when put back in action. Dust, dirt, paper bits and caked ink may also cause obstructions and even damage the printer.


The printer driver links the OS to your printer so the former can read and understand the hardware specifications and abilities of the latter. It also decodes print instructions into a language that the printer can understand. Without it, no printing, scanning or copying job can happen.


Several instances of the unavailable printer driver error are linked to a software upgrade. Users who recently made the jump to Windows 10 from an earlier version may find that the process damaged some device drivers. Your printer or its driver might also be incompatible with your current Windows version.

In any case, it is important to determine the exact cause of the error before attempting to fix it. If you are unsure what the cause of the error is, it is best to contact an experienced technician for assistance.
