Monday blues and printer struggles...ugh!

I got a workout plan on PFD via e-mail from the personal trainer I train with at my local gym yesterday and today I was meaning to print it out so I could bring it with me to the gym and use for my workout session. But it turned out the old MP drivers for my Canon printer didn't work anymore and I had to install new ones. The online manuals said I could download them from their website but clicking around on that specific website, I only found instructions on how to install stuff and no direct download links for an MP driver. So I had to do a bit more online searching until I found other websites for Canon that had the driver for download. But upon trying to install the driver, it told me to unblock it from the Windows firewall and so I went into all the programs and apps the firewall gives permission to but there were no Canon related apps there at all so there was nothing there to unblock and that left me really frustrated. So here I am, with no workout plan printed out and a printer that just flat out refuses to co-operate. It completely boggles my mind how something so simple as printing should be so difficult and complicated...I guess that's one way you can tell it's Monday....sigh :(
