Canon multipass C755 printer


Hi,
Trying to get a Canon multipass C755 model printer to work. Could someone tell me where
to get the driver for this?
Thank you.

The multipass is a combination printer, fax and scanner right?

If so it's going to be tricky ... you'll need to setup each individual section of the unit to get it to work.

If I am not mistaken, the scanner section should be compatible with the canon canoscan 640u style of thing being sold at the same time as your multipass.
It'll be the same scanner that canon was selling at the bottomish part of their range in the same product cycle as your multipass.
The printer section will be the same also.

I am pretty sure that there will be no one 'driver' as such for combo devices...

I don't know how well the multipass will work though since all but the newest multipass devices I have had the dubious pleasure of sorting out rarely worked at all with official drivers on windows.

Well, give it a go any way...

Yes, it is a combination of printer and fax. My intention is to only get the printer going. Could you please let me know what driver is needed? There did not seem to be a canon 640u.
Thank you.
