I had anticipated that once the machine was established on my wireless network utilizing my desktop, that our laptops on the network could simply find it and append it with the Windows Add Printer function, if all they needed was print capability–maybe by catching a slim driver off the net or from the machine itself. But oh, no. This thing has to be set up from the disk for every last machine, and took 20 moments each to set up on our XP laptop computers, and nearly 30 minutes on our VISTA machine. The unusable completion bar sat at 94% for most of that time.

It seems to have installed it but it does not print probably due to everyone having seperate ID. My question is how do i bypass the iD? There is no way it comes up on the computer.

I’m having the same problem as Tim. Our IR5570 still isn’t supported… It sucks that we have almost 100 mac’s still on leopard because our printers are not supported…

It does not work for me and our ir5570 Canon copier. When added it does not open the window to select the options installed on the copier (trays, staple, hold punch, job accounting) and never connects to the copier. I tried the generic IR series UFR driver from Canon that actually lists Snow Leopard in the list. It did give the right option window, but when items were sent, the copier would suspend and give a message that UFR drivers not supported. So something is still not quite right with these drivers for the older image runner series.
