From your computer, please click on the link below.

Once on the Canon website, download the G3000 series Full Driver & Software Package (Windows)​.  (Make sure the top of the page says Windows 10 64-bit or the operating system that matches your computer). Once downloaded, unplug or turn off the printer. Run the downloaded file and follow the prompts and turn on or plug in the printer when prompted. Once done, test print.

Note: You may need to use a USB cable during the installation.
