Setting up a new printer can often feel daunting, but with the Canon TS6420, the process is incredibly straightforward. This versatile all-in-one printer not only offers high-quality prints but is also designed for user-friendliness. In this guide, we will walk you through the essential steps to successfully set up your Canon TS6420 printer and start enjoying its features in no time.

Unboxing Your Canon TS6420

Before diving into the setup process, it’s important to ensure that you have all the components needed. When you unpack your Canon TS6420, you should find: the printer itself, power cord, ink cartridges (black and color), a quick start guide, and warranty information. Take your time to remove any protective materials from inside and outside of the printer to prepare it for setup.

Connecting Power and Turning On Your Printer

Once unboxed, place your Canon TS6420 on a flat surface near a power outlet. Connect one end of the power cord to the back of the printer and plug in the other end into an outlet. Press the power button located on top of your printer to turn it on. You’ll hear a startup sequence as it prepares for use; this may take a few moments.

Installing Ink Cartridges

After powering up your device, you’ll need to install ink cartridges before printing anything. Open the front cover of your printer by lifting it gently until it clicks into place. The cartridge holder will slide into position automatically. Unpack both ink cartridges from their packaging—be sure to remove any protective tape—and insert them firmly into their respective slots: black on one side and color on the other until they click securely in place.

Loading Paper Into Your Printer

Now that you’ve installed ink cartridges successfully, it’s time to load paper into your Canon TS6420. Pull out the front paper tray located at the bottom of your device by sliding it towards you. Adjust the paper guides if necessary and place plain or photo paper with its print side facing downwards in accordance with size indicators inside tray compartment before pushing it back until snugly fit.

Connecting Your Printer to Wi-Fi

To utilize wireless printing capabilities, you’ll want to connect your Canon TS6420 to Wi-Fi network settings using either Wi-Fi Direct or standard wireless connection methods via control panel menus displayed on its touchscreen interface. Tap ‘Settings’ > ‘Wireless LAN Setup’ > select ‘Easy Wireless Connect’, then follow prompts until connected involving selecting desired network name (SSID) along with entering password when prompted.

Congratulations. You’ve successfully set up your new Canon TS6420 printer. Now you’re ready for printing documents or photos directly from various devices through multiple ways including mobile applications like Canon PRINT app or connecting via USB cable for direct wired printing options as well—enjoy exploring what this amazing machine can do.
