G2000 Canon Printer

[Sherman Desrosiers]

Ihave my cannon g2000 printer. however, if the printer is idle for approx 2 minutes and I try to give the print, it hows "port in use, please wait". After a few seconds the printing starts. It is delaying my print jobs. Please help.

2. Open "Programs and Features", or "Uninstall a program".

3. Uninstall the G2000 series MP Drivers.

4. Go back to the Control Panel.

5. Open Devices and Printers.

6. Right-click and delete or remove any copies of the printer that are listed here.

Please open the control panel on your computer and then select "View Devices and Printers". Once you are there, please let us know if there is a WS at the end of G2000 printer icon( G2000 seires WS). If you could also right click on the printer icon and select Printer Properties.

I understand that you are trying to print to your wireless PIXMA G2000 series Printer and you are being told that the port is in use from your Windows 7 and Windows 10 computers. I can help you with this issue.

Computers communicate with other devices through ports. You can think of them as doors that only one person can fit through. If the port is in use or being blocked, your computer will not be able to communicate with the printer. The fact that the printing eventually does start tells me that this is an intermittent issue. Whoever is blocking the door sometimes steps away.

Security software can sometimes interfere with the communication process. Therefore, if you have any of these programs (Firewall or Anti-Virus Protection), I recommend that you disable them before printing. If that does not help, sometimes restarting the computer will fix this particular error.

If you are still having an issue, I recommend that you delete the printer and uninstall the original driver. You can delete the printer from the "Devices and Printers" window. Then, you can uninstall and reinstall the MP Drivers.

I don't know. Still a newbie. But I got my canon Pixma mg3051 to work by using USB and installing the Pixma 2900 driver and by changing its name to 3051. Plug the printer in via USB and add printer. If your printer is not on the list like mine I went for the model closest to mine then when the details came on screen just changed name. It worked for me.

I got my Pixma 3051 just to work today after alot of Hassel. I plug it in via USB. In the dash select printer, add printer, select the make then it will search for a driver. If it doesn't find one select your driver from the listed. If it's not there select the one closest to it. It will show your printers details now change them to your printer name and run a test page.The closest printer to mine was the Canon Pixma MG2900.

This is my first contribution to the community. I finally found a solution to install cannon g2000 driver on Ubuntu 16.04. The preinstalled version of gutenprint on Ubuntu 16.04 is 5.2.11 .. we have to update gutenprint to 5.2.13 this version has the g2000 driver.
