- Get Your Printer Ready and Unpack it:

- Now, connect the power cord that comes with your printer. The power cord or power cable port is located on the back of a printer.
- Now, press the Power button. Generally, Canon printers have their power button located on the front, but you might find it on the side in some models. Typically, you can spot it by looking for an “ON” label or a power symbol.

- Easy Wireless connect to a USB or Wi-Fi network:
- Hold down the printer’s Wi-Fi button until the light starts to flash.
- Download the Canon PRINT app on your phone, or the PC installer can also be used to connect for a USB connection.
- For USB Connection: Make sure you have your printer’s USB cable handy. When prompted by the installer to select a connection method, go ahead and choose USB, then plug in the cable.
- Go to ij.start.cannon or ij.start.canon:
- First, open any of your favorite web browsers, e.g, Safari, Chrome, Edge, or Firefox, and search for https://ij.start.canon or canon.com/ijsetup

- Next, enter your printer model number in the search box and hit Go.

- Finally, download the setup software that matches your computer, whether it’s Windows or macOS.
