Try to install one driver option. Perhaps the first one will suit you, but if suddenly for some reason the device does not work, then try installing a different driver. Before installing another driver, remove the recently installed one, restart the computer and only then install the other driver. Below is a link to an article on how to install the driver. Carefully read all the material on the page and in this case, your MFP should work.

Attention! Recently we have updated the drivers for this device and the installation has become a little more complicated. Below we talked about how it was before, but now we need to do it a little differently. Download the drivers from the links above and install them as described in the article “How to install the printer driver“. After that, your MFP will work for sure!
Driver Installation in Windows 10
Before installing the drivers for the Canon i-SENSYS MF3228, turn on the machine and connect the USB cable to your computer. Next, open the downloaded file. A window will appear and then disappear, if so, then everything is in order. A folder should appear in the folder where the downloaded file is located.
Come into it. Next, open the “Setup” file with a computer icon (there is another file with the same name and a notebook sheet icon, but we do not need it), launch it by double-clicking the left mouse button.
A welcome window will appear. Click the Next button.
At this stage of the installation, you can read the standard license agreement, which says about no copyright infringement, no fault of the manufacturer in case of the inoperability of this program on your computer and other legal aspects. Click the “Yes” button to continue with the installation process.
The installation wizard informed us that now it is necessary to restart the computer. Click the “Restart” button. Shutdown starts.
After loading the operating system, connect the printer to the computer and turn it on (if you have not done so before). Everything is ready to use, enjoy excellent print quality.
