Hi, Try this: Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer. Then, unplug the USB from the back of the printer. After a minute, plug the power cord back in. Let the printer boot up for a minute. Then plug the USB in again. Let the USB get connected. If you don't see any errors and you setup your printer, then that should have reset the "other operation".
Thanks for using FixYa.

Problem encountered installing rhe new printer canon MX 360

Make sure printer jobs are cleared and try printing again. Delete any stuck or error'd jobs. Also confirm that it is the default printer. It should have a check indicating so in printers. You can assign default by right clicking and choosing set as default.
