Installing the Drivers & Software  
When you reinstall your printer on your network because of a router or network change, you follow the same procedure as for a first time  
install. A step-by-step walk through of the wireless setup is built into the installation routine of the software for your PIXMA.  
To begin setup of your PIXMA MX492 on your wireless network, you must first download the software to your computer.  
Access the MX490 series Setup page, read the instructions, then click the Download button.  
After the file has downloaded successfully (default location is the Downloads folder), double-click it to start the install procedure.  
The setup instructions presented in this document describe the “Cableless Setup” method which does not require the need to know the  
SSID (network name), or network passphrase and does not require the printer to be temporarily connected to the computer with a USB cable.  
Click Next on the first screen. If prompted, enter the Administrative Password to continue.
