I know. The reason is Canon driver from year 2000 or something, pre XP SP2, like that. Canon dont provide new drivers to this printer model anymore...


The same reason why perfectly functioning hardware becomes unusable: because the manufacturer doesn't provide a driver for later versions of operating systems and the old driver versions don't work on the later versions of operating systems. Get newer hardware. Network the printer that is connected to a host for which a good driver is available for the OS that runs on that host. If the old hardware's manufacture doesn't provide a driver for a later OS, that manufacturer is the one screwing you over since it is not the responsibility but rather a convenience that an OS supplies any hardware drivers beyond very generic ones that manage to get the OS installed.
