In indesign there is a composite RGB option and no composite CMYK, which make the color looks different between the screen and the paper. I tried to use generic plus ps3 driver from canon for composite CMYK, it shows the option but the printer did not worked. I figured out that the driver is not working at all, and there is no support from canon!

I bought this because the Wifi was meant to be easy to set up. For some reason the software at ig.start.cannon just "can not acquire information about the driver or software". I have checked that the canon can access the internet through the default windows firewall which it can - and also tried running it as administrator which didn't solve this. I think it is because the setup program on my PC can not detect or find the printer on the wireless network. I trried from a surface pro in the house, and same issue. I tried from an ethernet wired PC on the network - same issue. So i think that somehow the printer is not discoverable - I don't know if it joins on a SSID broadcast or is detected via broadcast - but either way its not detectable.

It is really frustrating - and I ended up manually connecting the printer to the wireless network, then manually installing the downloaded drivers, then connecting the pc to the printer. Now everyone who wants to use this printer has to go through the main steps. There is no support on fixing this issue.

If your router is dual band and supports "SMART Connect' or similar... which is a setting that uses the same SSID broadcast name for both networks 2.4Ghz/5Ghz, the printer may have difficulty or fail to connect.

Thanks for that - I did manually connect it ok and can print - thanks for the tip to give it a reserved ip - however I am curious why it fails on the install process from lj.start.cannon - I have b/g/n and 2.4 and 5.0ghz n/works set up - and the smart connect did not work either - and I do broadcast my ssid

I guess it would be cool to have someone (from cannon) explain why the install steps fail - and then just closes the install app with no further diagnosis. All their documentation (video / print) assumes that it works and there are no trouble shooting steps, and this particular error has been floating around on canon installs for atleast 4 years from what i saw on the web - and very little from canon on it.

At least if the error occurs - give me the opportunity to select a printer or manually download it from within the app etc. Or tell me whether its the printer detect or the driver download (as I don't know if it detected it but the app was blocked from the internet somehow)

I just bought a G6020 to replace an MG6289 (that's a horror story you don't want to hear) and no matter what I try, I keep getting a message that says, "printer can not connect to network". I am using an iMax that is running OS Catalina 10.15.6 but I had exactly the same problem with the MG6289 after an upgrade of the Apple operating system. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the compatibility of Canon software with Apple's operating systems, or at least the way I have mine configured?

Rather than leaving my FIREWALL up and waiting for the SETUP PROGRAM to ask me if I wanted to allow the new G6020 Printer to access the NETWORK WI-FI as a once off, and saying YES, I DISABLED my FIREWALL completely before restarting the SET-UP procedure at

The set-up procedure went smoothly after I did that. As soon as I was done with the set-up, I raised the FIREWALL again, and tested it to make sure it would print wirelessly with the firewall raised and it did.
