How to add a Wireless Canon Printer?

The steps to install a wireless Canon Printer may vary by manufacturer. In general, however, modern Canon Printers today will detect your network and automate the installation.

The first step - Use the printer's LCD panel to enter the wireless setup. On my Canon printer, this is under Setup > Wireless LAN Settings.

The second step - Select your Wi-Fi network. You'll want to know your home network's SSID, which you can find by hovering your mouse over the Wi-Fi icon in the taskbar.

Third step - Enter your network password.In some cases, you might need to temporarily connect your printer to your computer via USB to install software. But otherwise, that's it. You should find your printer automatically added in the Printers & scanners section under Settings > Devices.

If you run into difficulty, make sure your printer is relatively close to your PC and not too far from your wireless router. If your Canon printer has an Ethernet jack, you could also connect it directly to your router and manage it with a browser interface.
