Scanner Drivers

[lewie109]

Hello Everyone!
I picked up a Canon Canoscan D1250U2F scanner. I can't find any Drivers for Mac os X. I have been able to find classic drivers but they won't work for what I need. I have a MacBook. I will use the scanner for my schools yearbook. If you could please help me find drivers that would be great!!!!!
I have tried google and it didn't do much good.

Thanks,
Lewie are !!!

Huh. Canon doesn't seem to make Mac drivers for that particular model. Odd since most of their scanners have pretty good OSX drivers--I don't know how old it is, but perhaps pretty old if there are classic drivers around?

I don't see that scanner listed under the ViewScan multipurpose shareware scanner driver, but you could install the drivers for the CanoScan D1230U/D1230UF (get them from Canon's site), and see if the U2F is recognized by it--might be, perhaps with slightly decreased functionality. Free, so you might as well try.

I just had the same problem with an old scanner last week. Luckily, I found a solution that works:

Download and install the binaries on this site. Fire up photoshop and go File -> import -> twain device. It should work.
