/edit on Oct 8, 2008 - unfortunately I no longer have this file due to a failed backup drive.

HOWEVER..

thanks to rootboyralph, he's hosting the zip file - http://www.normalgee...anoscan_WIA.zip

[Spyder]

anyone? apparently they were also included on a cd if you bought a Canon N1240U Scanner. So if you have that, hook me up I think all the WIA drivers combined were something like 600k zipped up.

Wow. I seriously did not expect to be able to help in this thread, and I just randomly clicked on the title, but as it turns out I may be able to help you out Spyder. I don't know if it's my love for Canon (I have the Powershot A70, the N1240U scanner, and a laser printer by them) or just some twist of fate, but let's see what I can do to help.

Alright. As I said, I do have the N1240U scanner, and after tearing my room apart after reading your second post, I finally found the CD that came with the scanner. However, I have no idea where to look on the CD for the drivers you seek.

From inspecting the CD, it looks like it has support for the N670U, N676U, and N1240U scanners, but I cannot find any mention of the N650U.

If you're willing to help me look for it, I'll scour every bit of the CD to find the drivers you want though.

I've got a n650u & the last driver files i have are around 10meg, if you still want them then let me know.

I think those are the TWAIN drivers for the scanner. I'm almost positive that the WIA drivers for the scanner would be a much smaller file.

If you have the CD that came with the scanner, then you should have the WIA drivers on there.

I've got the cd but not sure what to look for ?

EDIT: I've rar'd the last drivers i downloaded http://www.tuco.dsl....anonScanner.rar ( 5mb, don't know if pipex allow hot links ) if they're not on there, then you'll have to tell what exactly i'm looking for on the cd.

[kaffra]

im curious about these wia drivers, could you share it somehow? i got a N650U too

[Spyder]

yep...go download

[invaderzim_2004]

Spyder, I sent a PM requesting the WIA drivers for the n650U-have you replied yet?

[Spyder]

i have just now

[chadbr]

I know -- raised from dead - but...

I've got the d660u - I can scan with it from the Canon utils - but all the WIA apps (MS Paint, Paint.Net) don't show the device as active.

Anyone can help -- or point me to that driver download?

Thanks... Chad

Spyder or anyone still following this thread,

I'm looking for the CanoScan N 650U WIA Driver.
Can you point me to the URL please ?

Thanks.

[Vincenzo]

I have the same issue, TWAIN drivers are no longer working for me and I'm tired of troubleshooting this.
PLEASE please please, if anyone has the driver, can they send it to me ?

[Spyder]

Amazingly I still get quite a few PM requests from this thread. Just as an update, yes, I still have the WIA drivers. The only reason I don't link them is because they're currently on my private ISP webspace and I don't want to risk exceeding bandwidth (they offer VERY little).

If anyone has any good suggestions on a free file hosting website that will take a ~7mb file and not delete it after a certain amount of time, please let me know. I'll upload it and link it in this thread for future requests/interest.

Thanks.
