PIXMA MX470 Series: Windows 11 driver availability

[conniesb1]

I have a perfectly good working MX470, nothing wrong with it and fairly new ink in it. My laptop broke the screen unhooked off the rest of it (and no I did not drop it). Until I get a new laptop a friend gave me her HP Windows 11 laptop to use. It is only about 2 yrs old & she just never used it. It recognizes the printer but it says the driver is not there. On the canon website it says it does not have it there anymore. I have tried everything I know to get these drivers and wanted to know if anyone can help. I finally found a site that had it seems but windows 11 made me take it out of S mode and I know you cannot revert back. Then in trying to install it now says it needs some MP drivers. I have never had this issue before and been using computers and printers for 25 years. HELP

Looks like you can get W10 driver here. W10 drivers frequently work well with W11.

I have the same issue, but it seams that the above link does not work anymore. I get an error when clicking on the link you mentioned. do you know if there is another solution? printer is working perfect so i do not want to replace it because I moved to windows 11
