How do I connect my Canon printer to WiFi?

A WiFi-enabled printer provides the ease of wireless printing from several devices in the modern digital age. Your printing process can be streamlined by linking your Canon printer to a WiFi network, whether you're at home or in the workplace. You will be able to connect your Canon printer to WiFi by following the instructions in this guide.

STEP1 : Get your printer ready.

Make sure your Canon printer is turned on before you begin the connection process. Making sure your printer is within range of your WiFi router is also crucial. For a flawless printing experience, a reliable connection is essential.

STEP 2 : Go to the Menu on the Printer

Find the control panel on your Canon printer. This could be a touchscreen or conventional buttons, depending on the device. Go to the "Menu" or "Settings" menu. The "Wireless LAN setup" option needs to be here. Click on it to start the procedure.

STEP 3 : Select the Wireless Network.

Once you choose "Wireless LAN setup," your printer will begin looking for WiFi networks that are open. Following the completion of the search, a list of networks will show. Select the WiFi network that you want to use. You'll be asked to enter your password if your network is secured.

STEP 4 : Type in your WiFi password.

To input the WiFi password, use the control panel on the printer. Make sure you type the password correctly because even a tiny typo can stop the printer from connecting. Once the password has been entered, verify the entry and let the printer connect.

STEP 5 : Verify the Association

A confirmation message will appear on your Canon printer after the connection is established. To confirm the connection status, you may also print a network configuration page from the settings on your printer. This page will provide you information about your network, including the IP address of the printer.

STEP 6 : Set Up Your Devices' Printer Drivers

You must install the correct printer driver in order for your devices to be able to connect with the printer. Get the most recent driver for your operating system by visiting ij.start.canon website, searching for your printer model. To finish the setup, install the driver when it has been downloaded and adhere to the on-screen directions.

STEP 7 : Examine the Link

To make sure everything is operating as it should, test print from your computer or mobile device after installing the driver. You can now print wirelessly if the print job is successful and your Canon printer is linked to your WiFi network.

Troubleshooting Hints

• If your printer isn't connecting, make sure it's within range of your WiFi network and that it's operating properly.

• Verify again that you typed in the right WiFi password.

• If you experience any problems with connectivity, restart your printer and router.
