How do I connect my printer to my laptop if I haven't got the installation cd?

I currently have the above printer but don't have any cd to help connect my printer to my laptop. Is there any free download site I can use instead? or is there a website where I can go to request another installation cd?

Go to the canon web site, look for the Support tad and go at it from there you will eventually find the place to download the drivers from.

Like HERE

Here is an example for a USA customer with a Windows based PC and an IP4300

Why won't my printer scan a document to my laptop?

Make sure the Lexmark OCR scan software is installed on your laptop. The software is available only on the installation disc that came with your printer. If you still haven't installed the software on your computer and you don't have the installation disc, please contact Lexmark Technical Support Center to request for one.
If you were able to scan documents before using your Lexmark printer, it could be just a slight communication issue. A quick fix for most communication errors can be achieved by resetting the printer and/or rebooting the PC. Simply disconnect the printer from your computer (if USB connected)> reboot your pc > unplug and re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reconnect it to your computer (if USB connected). Then try to print again once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection or when the WiFi light on the printer turns solid green (if WiFi connected.).

I dont understand how i install spc221SF aficio printer.. I have packard bell.

Hi,
To install the printer you have to connect it to the PC/ laptop and install the drivers for the operating system you have on your PC. If you have the drivers CD, you can use it to install the drivers. Insert the CD in to the CD ROM Drive and follow the on-screen instructions. If you don't have the disk, you may download the driver from the official Ricoh support site.
Drivers for Ricoh SP C221SF
From the above link you can download/ install the required drivers . Download all the files listed under the version of the operating system you have on your PC. Run/ Install them one by one. These files include printer drivers, scanner drivers, usb drivers etc.

Hope it helps! Good Luck! Thanks for using Fixya!

I want to install printer drivers to a laptop but the printer is in the field, how can I install the drivers without having the printer connected tot he laptop.

You don't necessarily need your printer connected to your PC to install the driver. The driver installation is so that your PC can communicate with the specified printer. If you have the install CD you can install the driver and software. Now Depending on your printing machine, some installation CD's will ask you to please connect your Printer. If this is the case, there really is no way around that because the installation directions wont let you proceed to the next step without doing that.
Each printer and its installation software have different protocols. Some will let you install without the printer being connected, some wont.
I hope this information gives you some clarification on your question.
Regards,
Nico

How to connect my canon pixma ip2772 printer to my laptop?

Don't connect your USB cable just yet. First, install the driver from your setup CD or download and install the drivers for your operating system from: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/photo_inkjet_printers/pixma_ip2702

Then when the driver setup prompts you, connect the USB cable. Setup should take care of the rest.
