Sadly, I don't have any other network interfaces, so that's no good. where users recommend to disable all other network interfaces before running the installer. I googled this error and found this thread. Which is a pretty bold claim for it to make, considering how difficult it would be for me to post on this forum if I didn't have a valid IP address.
#CANON SCANNER WON T CONNECT TO COMPUTER INSTALL#
This computer is not assigned with a valid ip address.Ĭonfigure the TCP/IP settings, and then try to install again. I launched it and selected the "Network Connection (for Network Models)" option in the setup wizard. I downloaded the "Recommended driver" for this model from the Canon support site, which is MF260MFDriverV610W64.exe. I connected my PC to wifi and disabled the ethernet adapter to see if being on the same subnet would fix it. If I unplug the USB cable and press "Scan -> PC", the printer display says "Connect the computer." I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do this. It brings up a dialog that looks the same as the ones MF Scan Utility generates. I can also scan using the "Scan -> PC" button on the printer. I can scan documents if I connect the printer to my computer over USB and use MF Scan Utility to initiate the scan. The printer didn't automatically appear in "printer & scanner settings", so I had to enter the IP manually, but the rest of the setup process seemed to work from there. My PC is connected to wired, so it's on a different subnet (192.168.2.xx) but I can communicate perfectly fine with all my other devices on LAN, such as my laptop, from this PC. The printer is connected to my wifi and has the static IP 192.168.1.169. I'm determined to actually use this printer/scanner I just spent $200 on.
