Have you contacted Canon support? Have you tried here:
Hello,
Yes, tried the suggested link before i started the thread,
the driver that is suggested on the Canon site does not seem to load correctly.
When i try to load it i get the spinning beach ball for a while then i get the warning message that the software was down loaded form the Internet do i want to continue and the second i select Continue the whole install process seems to end ....
After restart i cannot activate the scanner it indicates a driver failure.
Thx
I think it depends on your OS and what software you expect to use to run the scanner.
I use a Canoscan 8400f, and when I upgraded to Photoshop Elements 9 (Intel) from Elements 3 (PPC), I discovered that it no longer used the scanner interface, Twain, by default, but you could install it and use Twain if you wanted to, but it was not recommended. The alternative was to use another scanning program, such as Apple Image Capture, which did not have all the features. Other scanner programs are available that may help.
I reinstalled Twain and found it works fine for me, YMMV. Unfortunately, I can't remember exactly where I figured this out or what I did. I think it was buried in the PSE Help command. It continues to work on my early 2008 MBP and mid 2011 iMac 10.6.7. Haven't tried it under 10.6.8 yet, having just upgraded.
hi,
I have tried a number of programs i have on my system in order to access the scanner and they all fail, with various errors, usually Driver related.
Not sure what to do now.
Thx
