    Canīt Find My Printer Program
    I would like to run maintenance on my Canon i950 printer but it isnīt listed under: Start>All Programs. I tried looking at "Printers and Faxes" on the control panel but that didnīt get me in to the Canon program. Where else might I look? The program is certainly installed. I use the printer all the time.

    Thanks Credendovidis however I didnīt get past the configuration screen. On that screen there was no apparent access to printers/fax. Iīm missing something.

    Utilities are usually in the driver on a dialog tab or as a discrete utility. Go to Printers and Faxes, right click the printer and choose properties, see if there is a tab for maintenance and check under any advanced buttons. Sometimes the maintenance is tab is visible during printing by checking properties or options.

    Otherwise you can look in C:\Program Files for a folder with Canon software and see if any files ending in .exe might be the utility.

    This Steves Digicams - Canon i950 Color Bubble Jet Photo Printer has some screenshots showing a maintenance tab.
