Hello...
I researched thoroughly (so I thought) to be certain the Canon PIXMA Pro-100 would work with Windows 8.1.

Just ordered the printer yesterday and was told that it will ONLY work if it is 8.1 PRO Pack.

Is this true??

Do any of you use this printer perfectly fine with 8.1 *without* Pro Pack? If so, did you need to do extra steps to do so?

Pro Pack is expensive for me...if absolutely needed I will sadly need to cancel order before it ships.
Thank you for any help. I called numerous places today with numerous answers.

Thank you!
Sherri

Should run fine without it.
