    or

    Look up the list of printer drivers that are supplied with the 64-bit version of Windows.
    You can do this to find another printer from the same printer manufacturer (Canon) that uses the same printer emulation.

    To determine what emulation your printer supports, use either of the following methods:
    • If your printer can print an information page, print this information page. For example, some printers have a menu with a Print Configuration command that you can use to obtain printer information.
    • View the printer specifications on the printer manufacturer Web site or in the printer manual.

    Note Some printers support more than one type of printer emulation.

    There may be differences in the way some printer manufacturers interpret different printer emulations. Therefore, you might be able to prevent some compatibility problems if you use a printer driver from the same printer manufacturer that supports your printer emulation. For example, if your printer supports PostScript level 3 as its default printer emulation, look up the list of printer drivers that are supplied with the 64-bit version of Windows. You can do this to find another printer from the same printer manufacturer that uses the same printer emulation. To do this, follow these steps.

    Note When you use the following method, the print job is printed locally and the print job is then redirected to the network path. If you use this procedure, you do not receive printer updates from the print server when you update the printer driver on the print server.
    • Check to see if the correct printer drivers for your printer are located on the computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows. You can also visit the Windows Update Web site or the printer manufacturer's Web site. If you cannot find the correct driver, continue to the next step.
    • Log on to the computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows by using an account that has administrative permissions.
    • On the physical printer, use the device menus to print a configuration page. The printed configuration page typically lists the supported printer emulations. For example, the configuration page might list PostScript, PCLXL, or PCL as supported printer emulations.
    • On the computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows, click Start, point to Settings, and then click Printers and Faxes.
    • Double-click Add Printer.
    • Click Next.
    • Click Local printer, click to clear the Automatically detect and install check box, and then click Next.
    • Click Create a new port, and then click Local Port next to Type of Port.
    • In the Port Name dialog box, type the path of the printer by using the following syntax: \\print server name\printer name
    • Click Next.
    • In the Install Printer Software page, click the correct manufacturer under the Manufacturer column, click the name of a printer that supports the same printer emulation as your printer, click Next, and then click Finish. For example, if you have an HP LaserJet printer that supports Post Script (PS) emulation, try to locate another HP LaserJet printer model that has a similar model number and that supports PS emulation.
    • In Printers and Faxes, right-click the printer that you added, and then click Properties.
    • Click the General tab, and then click Print Test Page.
    • If the test page prints correctly, you have found a matching printer driver. If the test page is unreadable, you must find another printer driver or try another emulation type.


    Tips for locating a compatible printer driver

    You may be able to use the name of your printer to obtain more information that you can use to find a compatible printer driver. For example, the Canon LBP-2460 PS printer driver is for Canon Laser Beam printers, and the 2460 series prints 24 pages per minute by using PS emulation. If the printer contains PS2 in the name, this typically refers to PostScript level 2. PS3 in the device name typically refers to PostScript level 3. For some printers, a printer driver has v.the PostScript emulator version that the printer uses in the title. For example, the Canon LBP-8III Plus PS-1 v51.4 uses version 51.4 of the PS1 language. For laser printers in the US and Europe, almost 80% of network laser printers use either PostScript or PCL as their main language. Of this 80%, PCL5 is the most common PCL type that is used and PostScript level 2 is the most common PS type.

    Some personal laser printers are less standard. Typically, PostScript level 3 is a superset of PostScript level 2. Therefore, if you have a printer that understands PostScript level 3, and a driver that uses PostScript level 2, the printed test may be decipherable. Similarly, PCL6/XL is based on PCL5e, and PCL5e is based on PCL5.How to match the physical features of an unsupported printer

    If you select a similar printer in the Add Printer Wizard on a computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows, you must consider the physical features of the printer. For example, if you require duplex printing on your documents, the compatible driver that you choose must also support duplex printing.

    Other issues to consider is the availability of paper input and out put trays and the default orientation of the paper input. For example, printer drivers offer different methods to select duplex printing. By making sure that you choose a printer driver from the same manufacturer as your printer, you increase your chance that duplex is implemented in the same way across the whole range of devices. Additionally, if you pick a printer model that has a similar model series number, you increase the chance that the printer driver is compatible.Issues that you may experience when you use a compatible printer driver

    If you select a compatible printer, you may experience compatibility issues. For example, if you want to print to a monochrome laser printer, you must find a printer driver that uses the same printer emulation. The same printer emulation typically makes sure that the document prints legibly. However, you may not have the required duplex feature available.

    If you print to a color laser printer, and you install a compatible printer driver that uses the same printer emulation, you can typically print decipherable documents. However, subtle differences in text color may not be preserved. This means that documents such as photographs may not print with a high image quality.

    If you print to a dot matrix printer device, and you install a compatible printer driver that uses the same printer emulation, you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:
    • Some fonts in your print job may appear different from what you expect.
    • The printer may print slower because the print driver has to draw the fonts as a bitmap before printing can start.

    It may be difficult to match an inkjet printer with a compatible printer driver. The rules that apply to other classes of printers do not always apply to inkjet printers. This is because of the many different types of inkjet printers on the market.

    Note Installing a WHQL signed printer driver that is designed to match your specific printer always produces better results.How to locate a compatible printer driver for your computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows

    To locate a compatible printer driver for your computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows, use the following methods in the following order. [Insert content after “To locate a compatible printer driver for your computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows”] we recommend you first visit the Windows Vista Compatibility Center to find links to the latest 64-bit printer drivers. Its database contains thousands of the most popular printers and you can easily search by product name, number or brand. If you are unable to find them, then follow these methods in the following order.


    Technical support for x64-based versions of Microsoft Windows

    Your hardware manufacturer provides technical support and assistance for x64-based versions of Windows. Your hardware manufacturer provides support because an x64-based version of Windows was included with your hardware. Your hardware manufacturer might have customized the installation of Windows with unique components. Unique components might include specific device drivers or might include optional settings to maximize the performance of the hardware. Microsoft will provide reasonable-effort assistance if you need technical help with your x64-based version of Windows. However, you might have to contact your manufacturer directly. Your manufacturer is best qualified to support the software that your manufacturer installed on the hardware.
