INSTALL CANON PIXMA MG2120 PRINTER WITHOUT CD
When you purchased your Canon Pixma MG2120 printer, you should have received the installation CD along with the package.

So, you may think that you cannot install the Canon MG2120 printer on your computer. But every problem has a solution. This article will show you the procedure for installing the Canon Pixma MG2120 printer without a CD.
DOWNLOAD THE PRINTER DRIVER
A printer driver is important for establishing communication between your printer and the computer. It makes it possible to access your printer from the computer.
