Introduction to Using Print Functions

Make sure that the printer driver is installed.
For installing the driver to send a print job to the machine over a network, see "Network Connection (Installing Software)." For installing the driver to send a print job directly from your computer to the machine, see "USB Connection (Installing Software)."


Printer Driver

Using the printer driver, the various data processing tasks conventionally executed within the printer are appropriately divided between the host computer and the printer to greatly reduce the overall printing time. The workload can be delegated to match the output data, thus realizing a significant increase in speed through optimization.
You can update your printer driver software and acquire information about Canon products on the Canon home page. Driver software is updated every few months.
