It was delivered and installed a day later to my Windows 10 desktop computer with no problems. During the next month I noticed the printer power would shut down after a short time and have to be manually restarted prior to each use. This was very inconvenient and unlike my previous HP ink jet printer which was always on in the background. To solve the problem I contacted Canon technical support and was connected to James Hume in India. His contact phone number was [Removed per Community Guidelines]. James was very courteous and spoke excellent English. After making several checks he asked if he could connect to my Windows 10 PC. I granted him permission and watched as he analyzed the printer time out problem. He ran the same printer driver install program that I had previously completed. After several minutes James explained the problem was with my computer, not the printer. I was astonished since this PC has functioned flawlessly for many years and has the latest update from Microsoft. And I routinely run two commercial software programs to detect and clean my PC (cCleaner and Malwarebytes). Also, the computer and printer worked flawlessly prior to me contacting Canon tech support. James said he could fix the computer but not for free under the Canon warranty. He said it would cost me $49 and would take maybe 60 to 90 minutes. Once again I was amazed since I am very experienced and have built Windows computers for 25 years. I denied James fix request and terminated our conversation. Next I installed the Canon 4720 wirelessly into my HP Windows 10 laptop. Both the printer and laptop are working fine. Then I tried unsuccessfully to install the Canon TR 4720 software back into my Windows 10 PC. The drivers installed but the software would not. In fact, the software install program would not complete and would not cancel or close. The only way to remove that open window was to reboot the computer!</div><div></div><div></div><div>Thanx for the reply, Art. I definitely understand that Canon can't advise or fix Windows computers I have contacted Microsoft and my security software to no avail. My original intent of clicking on the Canon tech support web link on Canon's own web site was to stop my new Canon TR4720 from timing out and automatically shutting down after some period of time. That problem has not been resolved. Another item that concerns me is almost all of Canon's web sites are not available online. Since that "fraudulent" person logged into my PC, I am unable to remove the TR4720 printer from Windows 10 devices and printers section. Since you said Canon will only troubleshoot a Canon printer and printer software maybe you can correct the problem of the printer software failing to complete installation. Apparently the software is hung up on installation of the MP drivers.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Nothing has worked so I reinstalled Windows 10 to rid the PC of any possible content installed by the fraudulent supposed Canon tech support person. Then I installed the Canon TR4720 ink jet printer and it installed just fine. All works fine but I still have my original question for Canon tech support: how can I prevent the printer from timing out and powering down after some unknown time period and shutting off the power? If in another part of the house with a wireless laptop and you try to print something you get a printer is powered off message. That means you have to go to the printer's location and manually press the power button. After waiting a short time you can finally print your document. However, after some unknown time the printer will power down again. This is very frustrating and never happened with an HP printer.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Do this: disconnect printer. Go to Windows' Settings -> Apps and uninstall all the Canon software & driver entries. Restart the computer. Then start from scratch, installing drivers BEFORE connecting the printer. Restart the computer. Then connect the printer. Now, does it work?</div><div></div><div></div><div>I have a new Lenovo Windows 10 laptop and an existing MX472 printer/scanner. I downloaded the MX470 series Full Driver & Software Package (Windows 10/10 x64/8.1/8.1 x64/8/8 x64/7/7 x64/Vista/Vista64/XP) and it the installation cannot complete because it cannot detect the printer. The laptop and the printer are on the same network. I can print from my iPhone using Airprint. I have uninstalled and re-installed the drivers/software package several times. I have restarted the printer and the laptop. How do I get the software to finish installing on my computer if it cannot get through the last step, detecting the printer?</div><div></div><div></div><div>Granted this is a really old pixma printer but on my old laptop it was working fine for the little bits of printing that I need done. I have downloaded and installed multiple driver sets but nothing works. I always had it as a Pixma 2200, but no 2200 download will work, it cannot find the printer even though it is connected, hard wired. There is no model number that I can find on the machine, just serial number LWXC[xxxxx], and maybe model K10380.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Thanks - this is one of the downloads that I have tried to install several times already - I downloaded and tried it again and still no luck. When connected, the printer makes some noises so I figure there is some communication going on, but still, the install package comes back and says it cannot connect to the printer. Is there any solution for this? This is a Dell Win 10 laptop, connected usb to usb. (Is is A to b? the squarish one in the printer to the flat one.)</div><div></div><div></div><div>So, I just pulled out an old laptop that I have not used to print on this printer for a couple of years, but it used to work. I was forced to download the new driver package and re-install it, and aftr that, again, the message comes back "Cannot detect the printer". This is from a laptop that used to interface with this printer, no problem. So there is something wrong with your driver package. I find it hard to believe that something is wrong with two of my laptops, one of which used to function with this printer without any problems. I last used this printer a few weeks or months ago. Now, because of the driver changes, it appears to be a brick. Same cords, same network (re-booted, not that it is an issue since this is hard wired), sitting int he same place. Just no va,</div><div></div><div></div><div>The Canon download didn't work but Windows did a search for drivers and came up with something that worked. The search took a while, came back and said it could not complete the search, but the window got populated with a list of printers and the MG series was the final one on the list. I downloaded it, installed, and it worked. Too bad Canon cannot supply a proper driver package for their website. Hopefully I can get Windows to do the same search on the newer laptop so I can use the printer again, but this urgent printing need is finally taken care of.</div><div></div><div></div><div>When you connect a printer or scanner to your PC or add a new printer or all-in-one device to your home network, you can usually start printing right away. Windows 11 supports most printers, so you probably won't have to install special printer software. Additional printer drivers and support might be available if you update Windows.</div><div></div><div></div><div>On computer, in Windows Settings. I followed the steps to add a printer or scanner. I have the printer attached via USB. Windows found it, identified it, and installed the necessary drivers with no further input from me. I did not have to point to the downloaded Canon files, so I do not think those were used.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Can I ask when you actually did the Windows 11 upgrade? I ask because I'm contemplating doing the Windows upgrade very soon, but I know drivers, especially printer drivers, can be messy to deal with after these kind of upgrades. I have an MX340 and I don't see any Win 11 drivers available. I'm hoping not to lose access to print after the upgrade. Thanks.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In spite of the info above, I was unable to find any Canon drivers for Win7 or 8 to try installing. There's also no newer version of the Easy PhotoPrint software than what I already have installed. I'm thinking the printer initially installed with Win10's generic drivers.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This printer worked great on my laptop. I just bought a new Dell desktop with Windows 11 and it will not upload My Canon Pixma MG2522. It gets to the connection page, shows that it is connected, but will not continue on. I have gone to the website, downloaded the newest drivers for this model and it still stalls on the connection page. I have tried this a half a dozen times and cannot get it to install.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This will usually come up if the cable was connected before the drivers were fully installed. You can leave the printer on and connected. You can press the Windows key and the letter R key at the same time on your keyboard. In the run box that appears, you can type in devmgmt.msc and click OK. In the window that comes up, you can click on the option for universal serial bus controllers at the bottom. You can right click on the option for USB printing support and then click on uninstall. Once the connection is gone, you can disconnect the printer from the computer. Now that the printer is disconnected, you can start the setup again. Leave the USB cable disconnected until the setup window asks to connect the USB cable.</div><div></div><div> df19127ead</div>
