Canon Low Cost Laser Printers: The Hidden Driver

By linathael. Original by Lionel - 29/06/2006 10:57:52 CEST - Category: Peripheral
As Epson, Canon does not release Mac-dedicated drivers for all its entry-level printers. annoying... well drivers exist but are not publicly advertised as reported by Jean-Claude.
My brother bought a entry-level laser printer from Canon for 59 EUR. Of course no driver, so we decided to give it a try, especially after reading a message on apple's forum about a driver CAPT available from Canon Japan and usable with all Canon Low Cost Laser Printer. In addition this driver is 100% Mac OS X compatible up to 10.4!!
The most amazing thing: Canon Europe does not know this driver; neither Canon US, etc...
of course the driver is in Japanese, but by clicking on all default button, it gets installed straight away.
To get the driver: http://cweb.canon.jp/drv-upd/lasershot/captusbmacx.html
In the past we have already published news about those universal Mac drivers available only in Japan... it seems that internal communication in big corporate is really inefficient :(
