Windows 11 Pro
When I try to run the Canon Inkjet Print Utility it comes up with the unhelpful message 'A driver supported by this software is not installed'. This happens both on my W11 laptop and on the older PC which has been upgraded to W11 'against its will' so to speak and both systems have the latest Canon drivers for Win11. This means i can't run any of the printer's supporting software, including it's ink status and Canon UK's support pages are greyed out. I would think there are still plenty of these Pixmas about so hopefully another user will be able to help.

Yes, I am using the Canon drivers but because the Canon site is greying out I had to use an old Win10 system of my wife's to download them.

In the link I gave you the download button work as expected. Probably you had the wrong link. Try downloading the driver again. If you use non-genuine inks avoid the 2024 patch, it might block non-genuine ink, install only the driver.

Even your link greys out on the Win11 machines but works on the old Win10 and that's how I got the drivers.

What version of Windows 11 are you using? I tried my link from Windows 11 23H2 build 22631.4751 Are you outside Europe? In that case you may need to use a VPN to pretend you are downloading it inside Europe. In case the browser makes any difference, I am using Microsoft Edge.

Both W11s are on 24H2 26100.2994 but I believe both had this problem when on 23H2. Both print fine, it's only the Canon software that won't run. Getting upstairs to the old Win10 is a problem for me these days but seems I'm going to have to do so to d/load anything or use the software. I'm in the UK btw.

Why run upstairs? Install AnyDesk or similar utility and access the upstairs computer remotely. All you need is to define an unattended password so you can type it and gain access without having to click Accept from the remote computer.

I use Remote Desktop Connection but the old Win10 system is off most of the time, and the printer is up there too, so some stair climbing still unavoidable.

The link in "spapakons" post (#2) works for me, even though I'm in the US. Windows 11 24H2 (26100.3037).

I don't know why you can't download the driver package using your Windows 11 machine. Are you using the same URL on both the Win 11 and Win 10 machines?

I wonder where you are. The PIXMA MG5750 is apparently not sold in the US, if I understand things correctly.
