[Misc] Nethawk USB-Parallel

[Coling]

Hi
I have installed SST4.24 on Windows 7, but found that the inf folder required to install the Nethawk cable is not showing in the service support tool folder. I am using the new cable (FY9-4368). I have also tried the older tools. Has anyone had the same problem?

Thanks in advance.

I don't think it supports windows 7

I know that FY9-4368 supports vista with Service Support Tool (SST) v4.22 or later.

I run XP Pro and I had to install the Nethawk driver manually.I can mail it to you if you want to try it.

Its not supported for windows 7.

Canon does not state it in any techpubs.

I don't think device manager will detect it.

Make sure u have the USB-Parallel Cable plugged into the computer, before install procedure.
The INF folder is present in SST4.24>
under_
CANON\Service Support Tool\inf\USBPAdp

The driver files for the USB-Parallel Cable are included with the Service Support Tool installation. They will be
installed in the folder (for a default installation) “C:\Canon\ServiceSupportTool\inf\USBPAdp”.
To install this driver so that the USB-Parallel Cable may be used, follow these directions (notice that the default driver
selected by Windows will NOT be correct and will be over-ridden):

****Plug in the USB-Parallel Cable to the computer.

Some balloons from the Task Bar will display showing that the computer recognizes the NetHawk USB-10 Cable and
that USB Printing Support will be enabled.
If this support had previously been enabled, the balloons will not display.
Note:
With Windows Vista, no specific driver is required since the OS built-in standard driver is used for the adaptor. This
is applies to the USB-Parallel Cable (FY9-4368-000) only.

Access the System Properties. This can be done by right-clicking on the My Computer icon or accessing the System
Control Panel from Start Menu->Settings->Control Panel (Performance and Maintenance).
Click on the Hardware Tab and then the “Device Manager” button.
With the list of devices shown, select the “USB Printing Support” item under “Universal Serial Bus controllers”. With
this item selected, select the Properties command from the Action menu.
With the “USB Printing Support” properties window displayed, click on the Driver Tab. From here, click on the
“Update Driver…” button to start the Hardware Update Wizard.
When the Wizard starts, select the option “Install from a list or specific location” and click Next
When this screen is shown, select “Don‟t search. I will choose the driver to install” and click Next.
At this point, click on “Have Disk…”.
This will bring up a dialog to select a location to search. Click “Browse…” to navigate to where the driver files were
installed,
“C:\Canon\ServiceSupportTool\inf\USBPAdp\”, and select the USBHWK.inf file. Click Open and then
OK.
the message about the driver not being digitally signed is normal. It is OK to install.
Select the “NetHawk USB-10 Cable” driver and click Next.
At this point, the driver files will be copied over to the System
When the final screen is shown, click Finish.
Note that the “USB Printing Support” item is now gone from the “Universal Serial Bus controllers” section of the
Device Manager.
Also note that a new “NetHawk Device” section has been created with a “NetHawk USB-10 Cable”
item included.
If the NetHawk section and item are not in the Device Manager, the USB-Parallel Cable will NOT
function with the Canon utilities.

Canon always keeps techs in the dark, they should have updated that in latest SST 4.22 Manual, as I posted from it above ,it only states a note for Vista

Thanks , Good Luck

Has anyone had any success using an aftermarket USB-Parallel adapter with windows 7?

From what I'm hearing the FY9-4154-000 cable has recently become unavailable.
