[work] | Usbprint Canondevicef144
The identifier USBPRINT\CanonDeviceF144 is a specific Windows hardware ID used to recognize the Canon PIXMA iP2770 printer when connected via a USB port.
- Always download the latest, model-specific drivers from Canon for your exact OS build.
- Prefer direct USB connection to the PC when installing drivers; add network sharing only after local installation is verified.
- Keep Windows Update from auto-replacing a working vendor driver by using Device Installation Settings or Group Policy in managed environments.
- Document working driver versions and installation procedures in enterprise setups to streamline recovery from driver-related incidents.
- Go to the official Canon support website (
canon.com/support).
- Enter "PIXMA MG3022" or "MG3050" (both use the same driver package).
- Select your version of Windows (e.g., Windows 10/11, 64-bit).
- Download the Full Driver & Software Package (not just the scanner driver).
- Run the installer before connecting the printer via USB. Many Canon drivers fail if the printer is already connected.
- When the installer prompts you, then connect the USB cable and turn on the printer.
- Complete the installation. The
usbprint canondevicef144 entry will vanish from Device Manager, replaced by a proper printer queue.
Here is a breakdown of the feature:

- Use pnputil to list/import driver packages:
- Symptom: Printer works intermittently or after sleep/resume only.
