Next, just type the numeric IP directly into the address bar of the browser.įor my Canon MX492, I connected my computer to the hotspot, browsed to the printer from a Chrome browser on my computer, and authenticated successfully with username "ADMIN" and password "canon". If you manage to get the printer to connect to your hotspot (I authenticated to it from the printer control panel, it was a bit fussy), you should be able to figure out the printer's IP address from the hotspot configuration screen on your phone. Then, simply follow the on-screen installation steps.For some printers (for example, Canon MX490 series), you can get around the subnet limitation by browsing directly to the printer from a web browser. Click on your printer, or, if the name of your printer doesn’t appear, click the “the printer that I want isn't listed” link to add it manually. Next, click “Add a printer or scanner,” which should open the printer installation window. Type “Printers and Scanners” into Start, then click on the top result.
Then, click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen to open the Start menu. Press the power button on the printer to turn it on. If you’re using a Windows computer, first, plug the printer’s USB cable into your computer’s USB port, which should be on the side of your computer if you have a laptop or on the front of your computer tower. If you need to install a printer without an installation disk, you can use a USB cable. Then, simply follow the on-screen installation steps.
