I'll assume you mean the Epson 5010 since I believe the Canon 5010 is a scanner printer. You cannot use passive glasses with an active 3D setup. You have to buy the proper glasses for your setup. I'm not sure if this works for the 5010 but I do know that the Sony Playstation 3D glasses work with my Epson 3010.
