Hey guys, I just bought a canon E560 printer. However, it seems that I can’t connect and setup my printer for WIFI printing. Anybody has a clue on what to do? Followed all the instructions but nothing works.

Install to USB first. Then use back driver to connect to Wi-Fi. It would be much more easier to set up from a wifi connected laptop due that it is connected to Wifi and it can take the SSID settings from there.

Apparently is my modem/router problem :/ printer is connected to the ssid, but is unable to be assigned for an IP address.

Some WIFI capable printer require you to press the router WPS button and the WIFI button on printer to pair.
(yes, your printer need to pair with your WIFI router because your router's WIFI signal is password protected)

Try to download and read your printer manual from Canon official website.
