Canon i865 and Win 7
I have a Canon i865 attached to an XP pc, and trying to access the printer over the network
In Vista x64 I did this:
"Go to Control Panel. Choose printers. Then choose Add Printer.
Choose Add a local printer. Click on Create a new port. The default in the drop down box is Local Port. Leave it default. Click Next.
A dialogue box will appear asking for you to enter a port name. Type in the \\computer name\printer name "
The above installed the printer no problem
In Windows 7 x64 it pops up with a 'install driver' window, yet my printer is not in the list.
How can I install the printer? Can I get the driver from Vista somehow? Canon don't have a Vista x64 driver
