Canon MP180 We have a Canon Pixma MP180 and have just purchased a new computer with Vista OS..the computer doesn't recognise the printer at all. I've tried all the USB ports and its the same for each. No one seems to be able to help not even Canon. We had a similar problem with our lexmark but their techs sent us a patch and now we're having no problems.

Go to the part of the program that deals with compatibility of programs. I never liked vista so I never installed it. anyway in the compatibility box choose windows xp and run it. worse comes to worse go to www dot downloads dot com and download the drivers for your printer FOR vista.

I have a canon mp180 and I want to set it up wirelessly do I need to purchase new software to do so or is there a way to do it without

It is notpossible to connect this printer wirelessly to your wireless network because it only has an USBconnection to a computer, unless you attach this printer to a print server andthen to a wireless router.
Alternatively you can set up this printer as a Shared printer on a computer onyour 10baseT LAN network. Other computers on your network can then printer tothis printer provided the computer with the printer is switched on (booted up).

I lost my installer cd for my canon printer pixma mp180/mp160. I need to know how I can install my printer. My laptop is under windows vista.

bri082090,

This is a fairly simple procedure. You can go to the Canon wesite located here http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_series/pixma_mp180#DriversAndSoftware and select your operating system and then download and install the software on your computer. It may require a restart of the computer. I have a tip at http://www.fixya.com/support/r6370947-install_printer_without_install_cd which will walk you through the process.

Thanks for using FixYa and for the great rating and testimonial.
