PIXMA MX892 Windows 11 Drivers Needed

[drcsue]

I have a PIXMA MX892 that is still working great and I have purchased lots of ink for it (we use it a lot).  I just purchased a new Windows 11 computer and I cannot get the drivers I need from the Canon site.  Can I get these anywhere or I am being forced to buy a new printer.

Were you ever successful? I have the same problem. I even tried copying the driver folder to a flashdrive and copying it to the new PC, but it didn't work (although I'm not sure I have done it correctly).

Greetings,

Copying a folder will not work.  

Try the W10 drivers.  They will probably work.

At some point though, it might be time to replace your 11 yr old printer.

Please respond if they do as an aid to others. Thanks.

Just to let everybody know, the W10 drivers the shadowsports posted work perfectly. I know this is a year-old thread but it was helpful to me -- thanks!

My understanding is that the MX892 will not work with a Windows11 computer. I just bought one with Windows11. I was also encouraged to keep my laptop in Windows10, and I would like to continue to use my printer, but the person who built the new computer took the C drive out of the old server and I do not know the name of the MX892 printer driver and cannot locate it in the software on the old C drive that was installed when they built the new server. Do you know how I can get the printer driver for the PIXMA MX892 printer? When I go into Canon Support and download my printer to the laptop, it still does not recognize the printer. I was able to somehow find the printer on the Canon Support site, but when I installed the printer to my laptop under the picture of it it shows "driver not available". Maybe someone would be able to help me find the driver I need so I can still use the printer? There is nothing wrong with the printer.
