I dont have the cd for the printer. It works when connected with the USB. It works wirelessly through my cellphone app. But I cant seem to get it to work wirelessly with my computer. I uninstalled the drivers as directed and downloaded them all again. But everything I see on how to correctly install the printer for LAN printing has you go through the autorun cd install. Any idea where to start? I have a Windows 7 OS.
This is the link where you can download the software to set up your printer again on your new router. under the software link, choose the link that says "Canon PIXMA Wireless Setup Assistant (Windows)"

SOURCE: Wireless printing does not work
For an effective wireless connection, the printer should be connected to one of the LAN ports of a configured wireless router. This way, every pc(mostly laptops with wireless capability) can print to the printer. You will need a wireless adapter for desktop pcs to access any resource made available wirelessly ok. Good luck

SOURCE: My Computer will not recognise the USB unit
You can only connect the usb cable when prompted by the software during the installation. Otherwise install will fail. Please see this guide.
If that was not your problem, it's possible some third party firewall or internet security suite or some other service is interfering with the installation. Go to the Canon site here and search "installation" and you'll see "stops at 42%" Read that article, and temporarily disable the non-microsoft service might be causing the problem. (Or see any other error messages that apply to your situation.)
Good luck.

You cannot "make" a driver work with a system it is not designed for.
It maters not which version of Win7 you have, if you don't have the correct drivers it will not work.
