I'm running Vista 64 on an AMD 64 Platform. I have the above printer. When I
download drivers from Canon's website they are only Intel compatible. Yes, I
have looked and re-looked and I'm sure. Canon does not support AMD 64/ Vista
64 for their Drivers (yet). I have tried to go through Device Manager, and
there is no printer listed. I have tried to Add Hardware and I get "Restart
Printer Spooler". I re-start printer spooler. Still no go.

This may seem like a basic question. The Vista Disc, when installed does not
have a repair feature like the old XP. How can I get the default printer
driver off the disk?

Thanks in advance,

Scooter
 
Thank you for responding, but that was the driver I downloaded that didn't
work. Even though I did try it again. When I try to print a pic from the
desktop it says there is no rpc network to print pics.
 
Hi Scooter,

You don't get the driver off the Vista disc - all drivers are copied by
default into the Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository.

The Canon printer drivers are found here:

C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\prnca001.inf_c505b61f
NB - those last characters may be different on your installation.
