Printer Driver for Canon i960

Printer Driver for Canon i960

anyone else using a Canon i960 photo printer? cant find a driver for Mavericks. Old drivers giving really bad results. Went to Canon site and it says no driver available. Have to go all the way back to Snow Leopard to find a driver and it won't work for Mavericks. Used my printer on Lion and Mountain Lion so I'm not sure what to do. I assumed Apple would have a driver, but when I went to install, it said no driver found at Apple. Help!

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

I'm not knocking your 10+ year old Canon, because I still use an 8+ year old Epson. 😉

I do know that some day sooner or later, it is going to have to be replaced. The really sad part is that every time I look at new printers, I shake my head and walk away thinking

"that cheap peace of junk is never going to last half as long as what I have now" 😟

Have you tried > Canon Inkjet Printer Drivers v2.12 for OS X and then resetting your printing system, as per > OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system

Hmm...I just downloaded the Snow Leopard driver from the Canon site on my Mavericks macbook pro and had no problems printing.

Thank you, Takokow! I did what you suggested and it worked! Yay! I love the old Canon i 960 and am very disappointed in my new Canon Pixma. Thank goodness I can now use it with my Mac!
