I had a search online and the only thing i can suggest is to try CanoScan Toolbox 4.5 rather than 4.9 which is on my first post.

As I have mentioned before, helping with a piece of hardware I do not own is tricky.
What I did to get the LiDE 35 to work was to look for a newer, similar version of the scanner and just force install drivers to see if any would work.
With regards to your scanner I Googled "canon ir1570" and came across this site, which says:
This product has been discontinued and replaced by:
Canon iR1020 photocopier - printer
Canon iR1024a photocopier - printer
Canon iR1024F photocopier - printer
So maybe you could try these:
Canon iR1020 ~ Canon iR1024a / iR1024F
Worth a try
Thanks Scoutfu :)
Several attempts according to Canon website for driver downloads could not get my Lide35 to work with Win7. Your guide as per below did. Thanks.

I got the driver extracted just fine, but kept trying to INSTALL the driver without picking from the list and then going to the IMAGING DEVICES and HAVE DISK / BROWSE. Once I did that, the LIDE 60 inf was recognized and the scanner worked.
Again, once you have extracted:
CNLQ60.INF
Open the DEVICE MANAGER / PROPERTIES / HARDWARE / PROPERTIES / DRIVER / UPDATE DRIVER / BROWSE MY COMPUTER FOR DEVICE DRIVER / LET ME PICK FROM A LIST OF DRIVERS / IMAGING DEVICES / CANON / I HAVE DISK / BROWSE for the extracted CNLQ60.INF
CanoScan 4.5 nor 4.9 worked for me, but a shareware program called FASTSTONE worked great, and other programs are also recognizing the TWAIN driver now, thanks again

Yesterday, for the first time since possibly writing this thread, I needed to do some scanning. So dug out my scanner, found this page and ..... the driver links were dead
So I've found new ones and edited the main post, followed my instructions and everything worked perfectly, I didn't even have to reboot Windows at the end!
Thank you me
I have followed the instructions, rebooted, tried both Toolbox versions and still get the message: Cannot communicate with scanner. Any ideas?
Just found and followed your instructions. Brilliant. My workhorse HP scanner died and I broke out the cannon and started searching for drivers. Found your post and was scanning 10 minutes latter.
This fix worked perfectly!!! I know this is an old thread but I subscribed to the board just so I could say THANKS

Hi Scoutfu!
I followed your steps in your post, and it seemed promising 'til I tried scanning and got the msg re the TWAIN thingie. cano toolbox 4.9 didn't work so i installed 4.5 as you've suggested but the same msg just keeps popping when i try to scan.
I've already edited the path in the environment variable, installed and uninstalled the drivers, reboot but still no progress.
I dont want to give up on this as I just got this old scanner from a friend for a very cheap deal, and been trying to solve this error since yesterday (w/o sleep cause i'm dead if my family finds out i cant make this thing work)
please please help! :B
thank you!
