Ensure you're logged on as the Administrator or a User with Admin rights.

Canon printers are particularly fussy about having their softare installed
BEFORE you even think about connecting the printer to the PC.

Uninstall any software for the printer that may have gotten installed by
using the instructions at:

Download a new set of XP S300 drivers from the Canon website at:

Run the software and do NOT connect the printer until it tells you to.
