Im trying to configure my printer 'Canon PIXMA MX3170' - however, I get Error during installation

Im trying to configure my printer 'Canon PIXMA MX3170'  -
I followed the following steps mentioned on some site:
"Follow below steps to setup Canon MG3100 printer to wifi using WPS function (by a button push on the wireless router/access point)
Press and hold maintenance button on printer. (button with screw driver and cutting pair symbol)
Now the LED should flash as '_'
Press and hold 'Fit to Page" button, now LED should flash as single dash moving vertically.
Once the LED flash is confirmed, press and hold WPS button on router/access point for about five seconds.
Printer should stop the flashing and LED should be back to normal displaying '1'.
This completes the setup and you are ready to use your printer wireless ".
However,
1.LED on my printer flashes 1-2-3-E instead of a steady 1.
2. Error message during installation : "An error occurred while communicating with the printer"
3. Im using a netgear router - and I don't know what is an access point and how to configure it for the printer.
4. I think I pressed the right button - (WPS button) - button with symbol  having a tower emitting waves.
My installation as a result - failed. Need your help.
Thanks,
Aditya

  • Trying to install Illustrator CS3 on Windows 8.1 and get error message-installer database is corrupt

    When I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a windows 8.1 machine and get the following error message. " Installer database is corrupt". Have tried rebooting computer etc. and still the same problem, any suggestions?

    BrianDany I am sorry you are facing difficulties installing Creative Suite 3 under Windows 8.1.  Windows 8.1 was not available during the time period which Creative Suite 3 was developed and the last updates released.
    I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log and possibly AMT3lib.log file for error messages which are preventing the installation.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4.  You are welcome to post any specific error messages which you discover to this discussion.

  • How can i connect my printer canon pixma mg7150

    Hello,
    I don't find the good driver for my printer CANON PIXMA MG7150, and i use a usb cable.
    Is it good ?
    Thanks

    I have been setting up the same printer this week, with a USB cable  to my iMac. I have taken Mac printer drivers from the Canon site.   Here is a link that I used.
    http://www.canon.co.uk/Support/Consumer_Products/products/Fax__Multifunctionals/ InkJet/PIXMA_MG_series/PIXMA_MG7150.aspx?type=download&softwaredetailid=tcm:14-1 091005&os=OS%20X%20v10.9&language=EN
    Apple have notified that they have newly updated printer drivers for this printer, which you can download if you have the other drivers in place.
    Hope this helps.

  • Please help me, How to connect my printer Canon pixma MP160 to my mac OS X Yosemite?

    please help me, How to connect my printer Canon pixma MP160 to my mac OS X Yosemite?

    You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.

  • HT2250 I have an Apple network utility that with the previous printer (Canon PIXMA iP 5000) found the printer on the Network for use on a wi fi system but a newish printer (Canon MG6150) does not show up as Bonjour.  Is that correct?

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • 1603 fatal error during installation-L7680 all in one printer

    I continue to get this error because the installation finds newer software and quits.  I have completed the MSI error 1603 solution 16 page paper for windows XP and was unsuccessful.  I then used CCleaner to clean all registry errors, and that still didn't work. 
    Is there a quick fix to get past this error and install the latest scanner software on the HP site?  I can print with this printer, but can not see it on the network nor use the scanner.
    Best regards,

  • When trying to import videos off of a CD I continually get error code -36 on one of the videos. How can I fix this?

    When trying to import videos off of a CD I continually get error code -36 on one of the videos. How can I fix this?

    Contact Apple and request a 10.4 or possibly a 10.5 distribution disk for this system, if you've not obtained that DVD disk from the seller. 
    Boot and use that distribution disk to wipe the hard disk via Disk Utility, and to then reinstall OS X. 
    Best to start with a fresh installation of OS X, as that'll provide the default environment and not something that's been customized and extended by the previous owner.
    The last OS X version that was supported for most PowerMac G5 systems was 10.5.8, and that would be preferable — if your Mac supports that.
    If you're not sure which Mac you have, then use the  > About This Mac from the menu and request more information on the system.  You're looking for a model number listed there, and that'd be something like PowerMac7,3 or PowerMac11,2 for a ~2005-vintage PowerMac system.  Whatever model number you have can then be used to determine the general specs for the configuration, and what the last version of OS X that was supported for the system.

    Hi
    And if You change view - in main "window/view field" so that You see the box-plot structure.
    No exclamation marks there either ?
    and non at the front page ?
    iDVD do not copy Your material - only points to where it is stored. So if on any external hard disks, USB-memories, CDs or DVDs are missing - assetts are broken.
    Or if You changed location of any material or directed iPhoto or iTunes or GarageBand to a new Library - Then iMovie/iDVD also get's lost.

  • Trying to install itunes on win 8.1.  keep getting error apple application support not found.  asks me to uninstall and install itunes.  i tried several times and keep getting same error.

    trying to install itunes on win 8.1.  keep getting error apple application support not found.  asks me to uninstall and install itunes.  i tried several times and keep getting same error.

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • My printer works great but I keep getting error messages from HP Solutions Center

    I'm using an HP Officejet J6480 All in One Printer on a Windows 7 64 Bit machine.  The printer works great but I kept getting error messages from the HP Solutions Center every 15 seconds that popped up making it impossible to do work on my laptop so I uninstalled the Solutions Center to try to fix the problem.  Now the printer won't print. Is there a way to re-install the Solutions Center and get rid of the pop up error messages?

    hello Danagriz, unfortunately the plugin check page lags behind. adobe has released a critical patch for a vulnerability in its flash plugin, which is reportedly already exploited in the wild. therefore firefox will block insecure versions from running by default on websites for your protection.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb14-27.html https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p794
    please update to Adobe Flash Player version 16.0.0.235 as soon as possible, which you can download from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html (use the windows-exe for plugin-based browsers).
    in order to update java, go to java.com (or if you don't need the plugin you can also uninstall it though the windows control panel)
