    Canon S630 issue


    Issue: Accessing a printer on a Win XP computer host PC with a Win 7 x64 PC.
    Error message: Windows cannot connect to the printer.

    Printer installed on Win XP computer, working fine.
    Both machines powered on.
    Printer shows as shared in printer properties in Win XP.
    Windows Firewall on with exception for Local Area Connection on XP PC.
    Access Computer>Network on Win 7 x64 PC, can see Win XP PC and attached printer on the network.
    Try to access printer, searches for driver and cannot find it locally or on Windows Update.
    Copy Canon install folder to to Shared Documents on Win XP PC and try entering that as location, pointing to S630.inf file.
    Error message as above.

    Any solutions for this?

    Thank you,
    Richard Warnock
