Wired Connection: If you prefer a simple and straightforward method, a USB cable is your best friend. Just plug one end into your printer and the other into your PC. Voilà! 🎉

Wireless Connection: For a more modern and clutter-free setup, Wi-Fi is the way to go. Ensure both your printer and PC are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You might need to use the Canon Setup app or follow the instructions in your printer’s manual to complete the wireless setup. 📱

Follow the installation prompts, and your printer should be recognized by your PC in no time.

If you’re using a wireless connection, the installation process might include setting up the printer’s Wi-Fi settings. Don’t worry; the software will guide you through it step by step. 📊
