Canon Pixma MG3150 Printer Connection

Hello,

I just bought an Acer ACER A C27/I3/4/256 PC running Windows 10 (64-bit), which does not have a CD-ROM slot.

To use my Canon Pixma MG 3150 printer, I downloaded the driver. After many attempts, the printer cannot be detected; it remains inactive. What could be the reasons?

Thank you for your help, I have quite a few documents to print.
Best regards,
MCC

Configuration: Windows / Edge 97.0.1072.62

    Hello,

    yes, indeed your printer was not very young, but it was working ;) It's a shame that manufacturers and Microsoft do not take into account the impacts of not updating their drivers. What bad faith and what hypocrisy!!!....:((

    Have a good day,
    @+ Macbernic.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your response, yes these are indeed the drivers I downloaded.

    I checked the settings, the new Acer ACER A C27/I3/4/256 PC I bought is running Windows 11.
    Actually, my Canon printer purchased in 2013 is not compatible with Windows 10 and Windows 11, but with Windows 8.

    I just received an HP printer compatible with Windows 11 from Amazon.
    Wait and See ...

    Have a great day,
    Garennoise

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, it’s called obsolescence... My Canon printer works perfectly but I have to throw it away!
    I’m disgusted, boo hoo.

    Have a good day,
    Garennoise

    Well, I understand you very well; I would also have a hard time if that happened to mine, which is starting to get old...

    If you think the issue is closed, please mark it as "resolved."
    Have a nice end of the day,

    See you!
