Printer uninstalled; can't reinstall; older drivers found
Windows 7 32-bit, Canon MP130 USB printer
Yesterday, suddenly, my printer was greyed out. Here's the sequence of actions I took (each unsuccessful):
1. Checked cable connections at both ends.
2. Replaced cable.
3. Checked device manager; it showed there.
4. Checked drivers.
5. Ran troubleshooting; nothing found.
6. Uninstalled printer using Revo Pro.
7. Downloaded software from Canon; started trying to reinstall but got this message.Older MP Drivers Found!8. Tried to find the "older drivers" but can't.
MP Drivers The program has found an older version of the MP Drivers
already installed. Uninstall the older version and then execute the
setup program again.
9. Ran search on the C drive (a daunting task)First time through, I got an expanding pyramid of MP130 entries in a loop from AppData\temp and leading to a non-existent file. I got rid of that - I think - but still couldn't install.10. Searched the registry:
Ran the search again; the loop is gone but now there aren't any search results other than the download I'm attempting to install.HKCU\Printers: (string value) DeviceOld REG_SZ Canon MP130 Series Printer,winspool,Ne03:

So here I am. The totally unhelpful message continues to appear and I have no idea what to do next. I did find a few references to drivers and I've made them bold but I didn't dare do anything with them.
Sorry if this is too much information; suggestions as to how I might have done it better will be most welcome.
Even more welcome will be some pointers for me to follow.
Thanks much.
