What scanning software are you using? According to the link you provided, that scanner comes with ISIS and TWAIN drivers, not WIA. Most scanning software supports TWAIN, and some support ISIS. You do not need a WIA driver to use that device...you simply need scanning software that supports ISIS or TWAIN. So it really comes down to what scanning software you use, but apparently Canon chose not to provide a WIA driver for that scanner. Regards, Joe
