Hi nativewooder,

Yes, the PIXMA MP490 can be installed on a computer running Windows XP Professional. We recommend installing and downloading the latest drivers and software for the printer from the Canon USA website.

The following link will take you to the Support and Drivers page for the PIXMA MP490:

PIXMA MP490 Support and Drivers page

Once on the initial download page for your printer, please do the following:

1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.

2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "DRIVERS" section and click the file that you would like to download. When you do, another page will appear giving details of the file you are about to download will appear.

3. Please scroll down on the Details page and agree to the terms of the disclaimer message to continue with the download process by clicking on the "I AGREE - BEGIN DOWNLOAD" button. After clicking the "I AGREE - BEGIN DOWNLOAD" button, follow the instructions to download and install the driver. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.

To download the associated software for the printer, please follow the steps above, except for you will want to click on the word "SOFTWARE" instead of "DRIVERS" in Step 2 to display the software for download.

Hope this helps!
