Install the printer driver using the prepackaged CD - Easy Install (Windows)

Note: Windows 7 users - The drivers and applications on the Setup CD-ROM were written before the release of Windows 7 and are not compatible. Please download and install the appropriate Windows 7 driver and applications from our Web site.

The printer driver installation can be done using the prepackaged CD-ROM Easy Install and Custom Install methods. Easy Install allows all the necessary software programs to be installed easily and overwrites older versions of the printer driver, on-screen manual, and other application software.

*The directions for Easy Installation follow.


* The screenshots below are taken from an iP90 install. The screens will be the same for the other iP printers with the exception of the Setup Utility which applies only to portable printers.

Note: Before installing the printer driver, confirm that the printer is powered OFF.

  1. Insert the Canon CD in the computer.

  2. After the CD-ROM automatically starts and displays the following window, click 'Easy Install'.
