Driver download for MF210 Series

SomervilleTom

I have a Canon MF210 series printer/scanner that still works just fine on my older computers.

On one of these, the "Settings->Canon MF210 Series Properties->Advance" dropdown for the "Driver" says "Canon MF210 Series". Printing from this system works fine.

I have a new laptop running a current version of Windows 10 Pro, and it is apparently unable to find drivers for the MF210. On the same setting page on the new system, the "Driver" says: "Microsoft IPP Class Driver". Attempts to print from this system fail.

The printer is connected using a standard TCP/IP port.

I've looked on the Canon download page, and see only drivers for more recent products. I do trust third-party driver sites.

How do I best obtain the drivers needed for my MF210?

Heh. It appears that we may each be correct.

Here is the screenshot (from the system with the working drivers) that caused me to seek a "Canon MF210 Series" driver:

When I looked closely at the device itself, I see that it says "MF216n".

There is, in fact, an option on the above download page with drivers for the MF216n:

This was on the page for the "MF212w" (note the circled model number in the URL in the second screenshot).

I really do appreciate your attention and patience. I'm glad that this does seem to be a source for the appropriate downloads.

@dexman335: I appreciate your attention.

I had already found that link myself. That link in turn references a driver download page.

Sadly, the MF210 is not mentioned in any of the download links on that page.

That's why I came here, in fact.

I'm wondering if there is no such printer model #210. I've seen references to the MF740 series of printers, but there is no such model number. Canon has the MF741, 743, 745 & (746?).

When I search (Google & Bing) for MF210, I find no specific printer referenced. The searches always reference another unit with a similar model number.

My thought would be to call Canon Support and have the rep check for a specific model number 210. 🙂
