About this tag
The canoscan tag covers discussions about Canon CanoScan scanners and their compatibility with modern Windows versions. Common topics include finding drivers for older models like the LiDE 35, LiDE 20, D1250U2F, LiDE 600F, N340P, and D646U on Windows 7, 8, and 64-bit systems. Users share workarounds, such as using XP or Vista drivers, virtual machines, or third-party links when official drivers are unavailable. Troubleshooting installation failures, WIA driver issues, and hardware detection problems are recurring themes. The tag is a resource for users seeking to keep legacy scanners operational on newer Windows platforms.

    Windows 7 Driver for CanoScan LiDE 20 scanner

    Since being given a CanoScan LiDE 20 scanner I've not succeeded in finding / downloading a driver for my Windows 7 system. Every time I think I've downloaded a driver, when I try to use the scanner I get a message saying that I need to download a WIA driver. Can anyone offer any suggestions.

    Windows 7 Canoscan D646U scanner works!

    Hi *, FYI, Canoscan D646U scanner is compatible with Windows 7. Just use the XP drivers (Ver. 6.0.2b) to install it. I tested it on Windows 7 Ultimate and it works like a charm! Good luck!
