Cannot Install Canon pixma MP510
My Canon MP510 printer installs fine on my XP laptop but not on my desktop
(Dell Dimension 8300, XP SP2). Installation procedure until I am ordered to plugin and turn on the printer. It says it cannot locate the printer. When I choose the printer port manually, it finishes the installation 'succesful', but when printing the printer isn't found. When using the Windows installer (that sometimes does see the printer at printer power on) it gives the error message, saying the driver may be for Windows 95 or later (?). I suppose the registry is corrupted somewhere, but how to proceed from here? |

Cannot Install Canon pixma MP510
Disconnect the printer from the PC. Uninstall everything relating to the
printer from the Control Panel. Reboot the PC. Make sure you have the latest drivers from the Canon website..... install the driver package before connecting the printer to the PC. If you still have problems, try another USB port. Also read through the FAQ and Troubleshooting pages at the Canon website at: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...o delid=13589 -- Cari (MS-MVP) Windows Technologies - Printing & Imaging http://www.coribright.com/windows "Serge" wrote in message ...
