[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1112544, member: 46727"] OK. Now that you have it hooked via USB, follow the Canon instructions to get it working wireless. You will need to make sure you have the wireless networking software installed (Canon) and the drivers. Easiest way may be to download everything from Canon, install all the software and drivers, and then follow their directions to get it working wireless. Basically, their instructions will tell you that the printer will "search" for your wireless network, obtain an IP address and then test the connection. Of course if your wireless is using encryption, you will have to supply the password. Download all software and drivers for the Pixma MP560 from this [URL="http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/snow_leopard/multifunction_printers/inkjet/pixma_mp560#DriversAndSoftware"]LINK[/URL]. The whole procedure to get it going wireless in OS X is more complicated than Windows, so don't give up. [/QUOTE]
