Drivers for a Canon DR-7580

Bigwil · Feb 6, 2014

I'm trying to get a Canon High Speed Scanner, DR-7580 to work on a Windows 2008 R2 Server. Canon already informed me that they don't make a driver for Server 2008 so I tried a W7 driver. The W7 driver only partially works and the scanner indicates I need a WIA driver. I've search but I can't find an actual wia driver file. Any help or direction would be helpful. Thanks!

If it's not included with the operating system, the scanner manufacturer is responsible for supplying either a WIA driver or TWAIN driver for specific models & Windows versions. Since Canon have no Windows 2008 Server drivers for your model, and the Windows 7 driver only "partially works", if you are using USB interface you may want to try "VueScan" software:

Download the free trial version to see if it works with your scanner.

Before installing VueScan I suggest you remove the Windows 7 driver first, then tell VueScan installer that no other scanner driver is installed. VueScan will then install it's own generic scanner driver.

VueScan must be purchased if you want to keep using it (if it works of course).

Please note: VueScan only works with scanners connected via USB, not parallel port or SCSI
