I have checked that all USB function is turned on on the printer settings But the C5030 is not on their list of Canon printers (yes i updated the list) I have tried to add the printer through Windows 'Add a Printer' > older printer > USB port. I have checked my USB port and USB cable on another printer and both are fine. DRIVER DOWNLOADED FINE AND PRINTED FINE, aah! In device management, the IR-Adv is showing up as an 'unspecified device' (see picture below). My problem is that I have downloaded the driver software, but when it gets to the point where is has to find the printer, it cannot detect it. I have no network so am using a USB lead directly from printer into laptop.

I am struggling to connect to my laptop (running Windows 10) at all.

I have a second hand C5030 imagerunner advance.
