In the Search box at the top right hand corner type your model number. Ex. If you have a Canon iR ADVC5550* type “5550” and highlight your machine. *Some machines have external print controllers called “Fiery”. If yours does (you will see an icon or tab on the main menu titled “printer” or Fiery” if you do) then THAT becomes your model in this instance – E.G – “Imagepass- P1” Then press the magnifying glass to search. |

On the Driver page it will select what type of computer you have. There is a long list of drivers to select. All Canon copiers can print using the UFR Print Driver. Note: It is suggested to use UFR, if you prefer PCL or PS please check with your IT to determine if you have a license to print PCL or PS*. *In the case of a Fiery (imagepass or colorpass..etc) the recommended driver will be the latest one at the top usually a PS (postscript) driver. See your IT or the CSA support desk with any questions. |
