The driver provided is an add-on to the existing driver installed. i am trying to install the canon driver to a new win7 system, so any idea how should i do it? Tkx!!

I have spent hours to find a solution... there is no driver. But there are definitely 2 solutions:
1. MF5630 - using ONLY printer in Win 7 x64:
You have to use the drivers for MF5700 Series - http://driverscollection.com/?file_cid=4213082682609f383f81540957d

- http://www.techulator.com/resources/4156-How-add-Printer-manually-your-Windows.aspx
1. First, Click on the Start button in your screen, further click on Control Panel button and then double click on Devices and Printers button.
2. Then click on Add a Printer button in the menu.
3. Further select the Add a local printer button from the available menu.
4. Then choose an existing LPT port and click Next button .
5. Further select the correct driver from the driver list menu for your printer. Suppose if the requisite driver is not available then click on the Windows Update button. After the Windows 7 Update installation finishes in your computer, once again search for the appropriate driver for your printer.

2. FINAL SOLUTION - for printer and scanner - if you have proper PC configuration:)

Win7 has a possibility: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7

you can install the WIN XP environment where you can easily install driver for Canon MF 5630 (or any other by Win7 x64 not supported printer/scanner) and additional software.

BUT YOU NEED to run: Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate editions. Windows XP Mode is not supported on Windows 8.
Your BIOS must support Virtual Machine.

Hi,
here was a thread on this in the windows 7 drivers forum a few months back

http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7hardware/thread/a80fe5c1-3ae7-42e5-901c-a0c5de632a80
Check the below options..

1. Install the printer via Control Panel (add printer) and when the installer asks for the driver file, browse and click the driverfile for XP (*.inf). Now the printer will work.

2. If you want all provided software installed, download Orca fra Microsoft. Open the installer.msi og remove the lanchcondition which should contain something like this "VersionNT 400) And Not VersionNT64". Then you can install everything.

Even though windows 7 can be installed to a system with 1gb of ram it is not recommended because of the extra abilities and the graphical content of the Aero theme

if you're looking for drivers for anything windows 7 is actually pretty good with installing old devices as win7 has a huge database of old drivers

if win7 doesn't have a supported driver for some hardware that you are trying to use, finding a Vista driver will also work as both Vista and Win7 use the same shell and drivers are compatable with each other, the same can't be said about XP as it's using a completely different shell.

this is due to the color management for winXP and win7 are different.. you can try to download the printer driver add on for win 7.. else you will have to install manually the color management.
the add on can be downloaded below..

Try installing the printer driver - Vista version of the Canon MF3110. It may work but may not give you all the functions you had under Vista.

Yes you can install the Windows XP Operating system in your notebook. However, HP is not recommend to downgrade the Operating System. After installing the XP if you need any drivers please get back to us. We will provide you possible drivers.

Kind regards Liz

By changing operating systems, you now need to install a new printer driver file. Further, I recommend you uninstall your MX310 from your computer before installing the new Win7 software. It will re-install your MX310 for proper Win7 function.

Did this system come from the vendor with Win7 installed? If not, then you may need Win7 drivers... good luck with that...

If the interface is an "add-on/in" then... you may need Win7 "drivers"... good luck with that...

If all else fails... try calling your ISP... seriously...
