Here are some of the most common issues and how to fix them.
Ij.start.canon is running slow, or it won't connect
If you are having trouble connecting to https //ij start cannon, make sure that:
You have the latest version of Ij.start.canon installed on your computer (make sure it's installed correctly).
You have the latest version of your printer connected to your computer with no issues and configured properly.
You are using the correct port for your printer (this could be different than what's listed in Figure A), as well as username and password credentials entered correctly into Windows (see Figure B).
Ij.start.canon isn't showing up in the list of shared printers
If you are using the Ij.start.canon printer and it is not appearing in your list of shared printers, then there are several things that could be going wrong:
The printer is connected to your computer but not showing up in the list of shared printers.
You have set up the connection properly and it's within range of all devices on your network but still doesn't appear as a shared document folder or fax machine?
Is there any other device nearby (like a wireless router) that might be preventing this device from seeing another device?
There are yellow exclamation marks next to your printer name
If you see yellow exclamation marks next to your printer name, it's time to troubleshoot. The yellow exclamation mark is a warning sign that the printer isn't working properly. Yellow exclamation marks can also be caused by other issues with your machine or internet connection (if you see this, try restarting everything).
If you've been away from home for an extended period of time and want to make sure that everything is working properly before heading back out on vacation or business trip, there are several things that can help ensure smooth sailing:
Your printer wasn't found and you can't access it from Ij.start.canon
Check that you have the correct printer name.
Check that you have the correct printer username and password.
Check that you have the correct printer port.
Check that you have the correct IP address for your computer or device, which can be obtained from a device's network settings (i.e., Chrome or Safari).
If using a Mac, make sure it is connected to an Ethernet cable and turned on before starting up Ijstartcanonprintersetup - it should be listed under "Local Network" in System Preferences if everything else has been correctly configured correctly (see #1 above).
If you are having issues printing through Ij.start.canon, these common causes may be the problem
If you are having issues printing through Ij.start.canon, these common causes may be the problem.
Check that the printer is connected and turned on. The computer must be connected to a power source in order for it to turn on and connect with your printer's network connection port (Norton Internet Security). If this does not work, try restarting your computer or waiting until later in the day when there will be more electrical power available at your location (if it's late at night).
Try connecting through other methods such as USB cable or Wi-Fi instead of hard-wired Ethernet connection as described above if possible before moving onto troubleshooting steps below; this could help identify any issues related specifically towards either method being used rather than just one specific option alone!
