Uninstall the printer, reinstall as per Canon's *specific* instructions
If still no go, and no err.msgs, see Canon support - its allways possible

Thank you guys for your help, I have done everything that you have suggested,
I reinstalled and updated 4 times thinking I have done something wrong. I am
now waiting for a tech support to ring me back with some more answers.
