Canon IJ Printer Driver
The Canon IJ printer driver (called printer driver below) is software that is installed on your computer for
printing data on this machine.
The printer driver converts the print data created by your application software into data that your printer
can understand, and sends the converted data to the printer.
Because different models support different print data formats, you need a printer driver for the specific
model you are using.
Printer Driver Types
On Windows Vista SP1 or later, you can install the XPS printer driver in addition to the regular printer
driver.
The XPS printer driver is suited to print from an application software that supports XPS printing.
Important
To use the XPS printer driver, the standard printer driver must already be installed on your
computer.
Easy-PhotoPrint EX and other application software that comes with the machine do not support the
XPS printer driver.
Installing the Printer Driver
To install the regular printer driver, load the Setup CD-ROM that comes with the machine, and then
install the driver from Start Setup Again.
To install the XPS printer driver, load the Setup CD-ROM that comes with the machine, and then
select XPS Driver from Add Software.
Specifying the Printer Driver
To specify the printer driver, open the Print dialog box of the application software you are using, and
select "your printer name Printer" to specify the regular printer driver or select "your printer name Printer
XPS" to specify the XPS printer driver.
