Canoscan scanner 4200f OK on Win7 now no driver for Win 10
Hello guys.
I just came here from the excellent Win7 forums, where I've been for ages. A very happy customer.
I recently upgraded from Win 7 ultimate to Win 10 pro via the free Microsoft upgrade. All went amazingly well with all my files and folders intact.
The only problem is that I have an expensive Canon canoscan 4200f scanner. Perfect on Win 7 64 bit but no driver for Win 10. I normally use Vuescan, which lists my model as being supported, but Vuescan (Hamrick) say I have to have the Canon driver first. Canon say:
Canon will not issue drivers for this model to support the Windows 10 operating system. The Windows 7 drivers should function in the Windows 10 environment with some limitations which are currently unknown to Canon.
I have tried using the Canon driver as is, and in compatibility mode but no good.
Device manager shows the scanner but also shows no driver listed.
Vuescan just can't "see" a usb scanner, so does nothing.
Help, please.
