Printer probs

Hi
Have a Canon Pixma MP610 and the last couple of times I've tried to use it, I get a message saying "Printer is offline" although it is switched on, so I have re-booted the PC (XP SP3) and then all is fine. Would it be advisable to re-install the software, or update the drivers. If the latter, can someone give me a layman's procedure for doing this please ? Many thanks

Check your connections between printer and pc. Make sure both are powered off first.
