Just got a new PC with 64 bit Vista Ultimate and am having problems
correctly installing a Canon Pixma MP760 multi function printer, scanner copier. I downloaded all the 64 bit drivers from the Canon website and installed them with no problems . Connected the printer and things seemed to go OK. The printer is registered fine in Device Manager under Imaging Devices with Properties saying this device is working properly. I can print OK and copy OK but am struggling with scanning. The canon software to scan is called MP Navigator 1.1 but when I click on the icon to launch I get the error message "The scanner driver supported by this software is not installed, Install it then retry". I try to update the driver software and get the message "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date". So I have no way to amend any scans. I can scan from the printer itself (i.e. not the PC) but this gives for example 4 pages for a simple 1 page original. Have tried ringing Canon but they are a joke. Rang them from work and eventually had to concede and take a day off work to ring in front of the PC at home. Rang them and after 30 mins of a lady who kept putting me on hold and referring to an expert was told this would have to be passed to Level 2 support who would ring me in 2 or 3 days. Told them I work in office hours but they expect me to take a couple of further days off work to wait their call - cheaper to buy a new printer! Have tried the usual of uninstalling the printer and re-installing and also re downloaded the 64 bit software. In "Problem Reports and Solutions" 3 of the canon 64 bit drivers appear including the MP Navigator s/w (m6C18MUx.exe) all with the same message of Program Compatibility Problem. The problem given is Description This program might require administrator privileges (I am the administrator) Problem signature Problem Event Name: PCA2 Problem Signature 01: m6C18MUx.exe Problem Signature 02: 0.0.0.0 Problem Signature 03: m6C18MUx.exe Problem Signature 04: unknown Problem Signature 05: unknown Problem Signature 06: 8 Problem Signature 07: 202 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 2057 Files that help describe the problem appcompat.txt Attached, Am I flogging a dead horse and is it simply that the scanner drivers (which on the canon website say Windows Vista 64bit) just don't work or is their a solution I'm missing. I can get the scanner to work using Windows Photo Gallery but there are only a few adjustments you can make compared to the canon s/w. Appreciate any help. Cheers Steve |

Peter,
Yes I had installed version 1.16 (although the icon on my desktop just says 1.1). I did uninstall and use your link and re-downloaded but still get the same Error Message stating "The scanner driver supported by this software is not installed, Install it then retry". I see from your link that are higher (newer) Vista versions i.e. Vista 64 2.02 tried them but no luck either. Thanks anyway. Steve "Peter" wrote in message ...

I would go back to Canon and hope this time you get someone intelligent.
They are usually pretty helpful. -- Peter Toronto, Canada XP Pro SP2 x 2/Vista Ultimate SP1 Triple Boot "Stephen Flanagan" wrote in message ...
