I have Window Vista Home Premium SP 1 64-bit operating system IE 7 I have a Canon Pixma MP500 that was purchased in 2006, and it will not download on my computer. I went to canon website and downloaded the driver and then put in the old CD and did what it said and it said something like this is not for 64-bit OS. Now I am not a computer wizard so I have a lot to learn.
View 9 RepliesI recently started supporting a remote site of 4 vista, 1 xp 2 mac users. They have a networked HPCP1515n printer. Original vista users are fine they can print to it but two new users to this printer cannot get vista to detect the printer. When I run the network install drivers they get the following: error 1327.Invalid Drive z:. I have tried the usb install but that fails similiarly too. Vista does not detect the printer but older users who were connected are fine. I have tried installing from local c: all fail. i have tried older versions of the driver all fail. The users have profiles set up to z: Attached is a screen shot of the error

Have had the printer for several years and it works flawlessly
3 days ago it suddenly refused to print When I look at the printer folder, it is default but it says it's offline I can't find out how to make it go online
From 'justanswer' I was told to do a restor, so I've tried going back a couple of restores, but they both failed, then had to undo the restores to get back to where I was
In safe mode I removed the printer then added it back by re-installing its software
sometimes vista asks me to say which port, but as it's usb plugnplay I dont know how to handle it I've tried resetting the printer from this website

Just discovered a new problem after installing SP1. I have a Canon i9950 inkjet printer. It's an A3 photo printer and has produced superb prints since I got my new PC with Vista 64 HP about 6 months ago. I went to make some prints yesterday and have wasted about 10 sheets of expensive photo paper. All my pics came out predominantly pink, very pink. Every time I switch the printer on Vista recognizes it as new hardware, searches for a driver and installs it. I don't seem able to get round this. I have about 5 different software apps to print from and tried them all-Photoshop, Lightroom, Canon DPP etc. All produce pink pics. Some, like Picasa report printer offline and won't print at all.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'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?

I just puchased a new Gateway computer and printer package. The Gateway is a FX7020 and the printer is a Canon MP210. The OS is Vista Home Premium. I followed the installation instructions to the letter, but the printer software never recognizes the printer and as a result does not complete the installation. I have rebooted as directed, but the problem persists.Here is the history: Prior to installing this new Canon MP210 printer I already had a Canon IP4200. This printer also had problems installing, but I was able to manually configure the printer by going to "Add New Hardware" in the Control Panel, select printers and then select the Canon ip4200 in the list. I configured it for port USB2* that was on the screen. For whatever reason, each time I restarted the computer the "New Hardware" dialog box came up and for many days I would just close and go on.
I did not have any printing problems and things seems to work OK. This morning I select "Don't ask me again" on the "New Hardware" dialog and could not print any longer. So I uninstalled the Canon ip4200 and started over, but this time the USB2* port was not available in the list of ports for the printer in the manual Add Hardware dialog boxes. At this point, I was tired of fooling with the Canon ip4200 and since I had new Canon MP210, I decided to install it and move on...So now you know the full story... I follow the instructions precisely and the drivers will not install. I look in the Add Hardware configuration dialog box and the USB port does not show up. I am guessing that by telling the "New Hardware" box to quit prompting me about the ip4200, it has disabled the USB ports or something.
Dose anyone knows if they make a printer cable: I received a new lab top and it didn't come with the older printer jack on the computer. I guess I need to use one of the usb ports? My Epson 660 still works I hate the idea of getting a new printer when my old one works.

I have got Avast (could not go with AVG as its such a chore to shut the processes down) SpywareBlaster Spybot Search and Destroy Windows Defender (although I am not sure if this is any good, read somewhere that this was the program responsible for Nvidia Card users getting the famous "....... driver has stopped responding" error, its currently enabled on my system, but I am yet to have a long playing session, so I can't say if this error still comes up with or without Windows Defender.
Come to that, the driver error may not have anything to do with the Windows Defender.......I tend to believe everything I read so maybe someone more wise to this can say whether this is true or not. But my main question is, do I have enough to protect my Computer?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have done this often on XP to XP. Now I want to do it on a two machine setup using VISTA on one machine and XP on the other.
I have a EPSON R320 printer installed and working fine on the XP machine. It was connected to that machine's USB.
I moved the USB connector to the VISTA machine and installed the printer drivers etc on that machine. It printed fine.
On both machines printer sharing is activated, using share name R320.
I moved the USB connection back to the XP machine, I can't figure out how to 'add printer' on the VISTA machine to enable printing on the R320 from the VISTA machine to the R320 via the XP machine.
i have 2 computers and one laptop in my home the main computer is xp, laptop is xp. the hp printer is attached to main computer. my daughters computer is vista. i can see all computers on the network and had no problem in adding the printer to my xp laptop, but cannot add the printer to the vista computer. i have norton on all computers and have removed it and still same problem. when adding the printer on the vista computer, i can see the printer but when i add it produces this error "Windows cannot connect to the printer.

Not my Vista-64. It never opens. Is there some trick in Vista-64 to see USB camera devices? It can instantly see all other USB devices, and I have many. It's only the camera that won't open.
I have a Canon 9950F Scanner that I used on another computer that had Windows XP operating system. I want to use this scanner on my new Dell XPS computer with Vista Premium Home Edition. I have talked to Canon and they downloaded the new Vista compatible software for installation of this scanner. However, when we try to install this software, the scanner is not recognized and does not show up as new hardware. I have a new all-in-one HP printer that also has a scanner. The printer works OK. Canon thinks there might be a conflict with the printer scanner and the Canon scanner causing
the non-recognition of the Canon scanner. Canon says they can do nothing for me and I will have to go to Dell to get them to see if there is a computer problem.
It worked extremely well in Windows XP Home. I emailed Canon and they said that right now there is no support for 64 bit Vista with the camera. However, I have 4 GB of RAM and 2GB of Turbo Memory and I wouldn't want it to go to waste.
Is there any way I can email Microsoft (without having to pay $35 dollars) to suggest support for these products or if I were to install Vista Ultimate 32bit, would I lose my ability to use 4GB of RAM and the 2GB of Turbo Memory? How about if I dual boot it, would there be any complications? Can I use the same CD KEY as neither OS would be on at the same time?
I hope to find a solution to this problem. I own a Vista Home Premium (32 bit) with SP1. I connected the Canon Vixia HF10 camcorder with USB to PC, turn on the camcorder in Play back mode, but Windows Vista remained silent - no detection of my camcorder. Sometime my Windows Vista just hung and FROZEN...I remove USB cable from Camcorder, Windows Vista is back to work normal. the Canon website and there it is -> the camcorder *IS* compatible with vista and doesn't need any driver. I called Canon technical Tech and he told me Yes, Canon Vixia HF10 is comptaible with Vista. I have also installed Windows XP SP3 on my laptop and tried on Windows XP, no problem there - the camcorder was detected immediately.

According to Canon Tech Support--spoke to the manager -- no Canon Printer is compatible with XP Pro's and Vista Business's Remote Desktop. Since their printer drivers are made in Japan, the manager of inkjet support told me all he could do was forward my request to the highest level here in America with the suggestion of supporting the Remote desktop.
I even tried Black Ice's Print2XP (the cost is over $100 and no phone support) which is supposed to create a virtual printer days ago but cannot get it to work --their email tech support has not answered in 4 days.
Does anyone know a way to get my PC at work which uses Vista Business to list my Canon Printer so I am able to print documents that are on my work machine and on my Novell Network of which I am the Admin? My home machine has XP Pro. When I had the Epson 980 Printer, using Windows 2000 at home and XP Pro at work, the printer was recognized on my work PC and I had no problems printing.
We print to a Canon iR C2620 installed on the network. Prior to VSP1 we had no problems. Now, we can still print but no matter what program we print from... it immediately stops responding and Vista closes the program (IE7, Mail, Office, etc). Tried reinstalling the printer drivers (the latest from canon for vista) with no luck. Have not tried to roll back the SP1 update.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm running Vista Home Premium and have just installed a Canon LBP5000 Colour Laser. It works okay but printing anything takes forever... A colour picture can take up to 5mins to print and a simple paragraph in black on a single sheet will take 2 to 3 minutes. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling the printer
software/drives but no difference. This printer was on an XP machine and when printing from that it was as good as gold. I tried sharing it off the XP machine to the Vista machine but got the same result... slow as a wet week! Has anybody got any ideas? The way things stand the Canon is virtually unusable.
