Hello,
I have acquired a new ADVANCE ORIGIN PC and I can't install my CANNON PIXMA IP2850 printer. I inserted the installation driver. A message says "printer detected....." and, after 3 minutes, "printer not detected.....". This is my 4th attempt following the help, but nothing works.
Can you please help me?
Thank you in advance.
Configuration: Windows / Firefox 99.0

Good evening Jeannets,
I managed to install my printer by going to "Canon My Printer," which I had downloaded with the installation CD.
I clicked on "printer diagnosis and repair," the repair was done, and the printer is recognized by my PC.
Thanks again.
Have a good evening.

Hello,
There are a lot of new things happening at once...
This printer apparently only connects via USB..?? and USB-3 is possible for faster transmission, but not for printing.
What is your version of Windows, if it is indeed Windows..? Otherwise, please provide your OS.
Here are the specifications: https://www.canon.fr/printers/inkjet/pixma/pixma_ip2850/specification.html
note that it is not listed as compatible with Windows 11..

Hello Jeannets,
Thank you for your reply.
My PC is running Windows 10 Professional and the printer I want to install is not new.
I bought it in December 2017 and I didn't have any problems installing it on my old HP PC running Windows 10 as well. It does indeed connect via USB.
I don't understand what's going on. I hope I haven't bought a "piece of junk" PC!

Well that's great, the divine voices are sometimes impenetrable, especially to technology; but it seems they have heard you..
Be Happy... and good luck...
