The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5235 driver enables your Windows PC to communicate with this multifunction printer and access its printing options. Choosing a compatible driver helps applications send documents correctly and makes settings such as paper selection, color output, and two-sided printing available from the print dialog.

Key Features

• Color and black-and-white printing: Adjust output preferences to suit everyday office documents, reports, and presentations.
• Paper and layout controls: Select paper size, choose a paper source, and configure duplex or multiple-pages-per-sheet printing when supported by the selected driver.
• Installed accessory settings: Configure available paper trays and optional finishing equipment so the print options match your printer’s hardware.
• Windows integration: Access printer preferences through Windows and compatible applications. Select a driver package that explicitly supports your version of Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7.

How to Install

1. Check your Windows version and system type. Open your PC’s system information to confirm the operating system and whether it requires a 32-bit or 64-bit driver. Verify that the package lists both your Windows version and the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5235 as supported.

1. Download and extract the driver. Save the compatible Canon printer driver package to your computer. If it arrives as a compressed archive, extract its contents before starting installation.

1. Prepare the printer connection. Turn on the printer and confirm that your computer can reach it over the office network. For manual network setup, obtain the printer’s IP address from its network settings or your administrator. If using USB, follow the installer’s instructions for when to connect the cable.

1. Run the installer. Launch the setup program and approve administrator access if prompted. Follow the connection prompts, then select the detected printer or enter its IP address. If no setup program is included, use Windows’ Add Printer option and browse to the extracted driver files.

1. Confirm settings and test printing. Open the printer’s properties, check any installed trays or finishing options, and print a test page. If the printer does not respond, verify the selected port and network connection before reinstalling.

A printer driver primarily handles printing. Scanning or other multifunction features may require separate Canon software or additional configuration.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or setup stalls: Remove old Canon printer entries in Devices and Printers, run the installer as administrator, and use the correct UFR II/PCL driver for your Windows version. Temporarily disable antivirus if it blocks setup.
• Device not detected: Confirm the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5235 is on the same network/subnet, print a configuration page for its IP, then add it by TCP/IP port instead of discovery. Check sleep/SNMP settings.
• Driver/version conflicts: Uninstall previous imageRUNNER ADVANCE drivers, restart, then install the matching x64 driver. Avoid mixing UFR II and PCL ports; install the Canon scan driver separately if scanning fails.
