MP970 Drivers for Windows 10 Compatibility

Jakester68 — Mon, 15 Jul 2024 06:19:41 GMT

Good day all.
I have a canon MP970 I bought new years ago.
I had a re-install on my PC and require compatible drivers for this printer to run. I scan old slides. It scans, but doesn't send it to the PC via USB and I need a solution, please?

Latest driver for the printer is Windows 8.1. If you don’t want to get a new device you could try VueScan by Hamrick Software. It is a paid software. Balance the cost of the software against a new more modern printer. New printers also come with a complete set of ink, so that is a potential cost offset as well.

Thank you, John.
I have a new printer but keep the MP970 around for scanning slides and old negatives. Thanks for the advice - I will check Vuemark out, for sure.
