LiDE 200 "scanner driver is not installed" error

I am struggling on a MacBook Pro to restore functionality of a Canon LiDE 200 scanner after it mysteriously began returning the error message:
The scanner driver supported by this software is not installed. Install again and then retry.
The error first appeared under 10.5.8. Troubleshooting that I've attempted:
Downloading new versions of driver (1482) and MP Navigator EX (2.04) from Canon's website
Downloading Apple's Canon printer drivers version 2.3
Logging in as a "test user" and attempting to scan through the Canon application as well as Image Capture.
No luck
I then loaded that software onto a different laptop computer, which is running 10.6.3. The scanner works fine.
So I returned to the MacBook Pro and updated it with 10.6.3 (using a simple update to the software, rather than remove and replace etc), then loaded all the Canon software once again. Still getting the same error.
Next I opened the Canon application on my second laptop and inspected the processes in Activity Monitor to find every active file, which I then carefully deleted from the MacBook Pro. I also deleted all preferences that I could find. Then, again, I re-loaded the Canon and Apple software and updates. Still getting the error message.
Stumped.

Hello Doug,
I also have a LiDE200 and based on your recent findings I have been checking my user Library for files relating to the scanner, however there does not appear to be anything.
Under the root Library there is the Image Capture folder and inside is the Devices folder which has the Canon IJScanner plugin. This is the ICA plugin which is used by Image Capture and Preview. Also inside the Image Capture folder is the TWAIN Data Sources folder, which houses the LiDE200.ds file that is used by TWAIN applications, such as MP Navigator.
These are the two scanner driver resources and with their location they are available to all users. So with only the admin user account having the error there must be something within the admin library but I haven't been able to find what that could be.
Have you ever had a different model of Canon scanner or even another brand of scanner previously? I know that with a previous Canon scanner that used the CanoScan application, there was a plugin for responding to the buttons being pressed on the scanner. If this application and associated files have been brought across to the new install with you user library, then this may be causing the conflict.
I'll keep poking around today and reply with more if I find anything.

  • Setting-up Problem in Acrobat Pro XI - It says "Scanner Driver is not installed"  How do I fix?

    Each time I try to Create a PDF from my newly installed Acrobat Pro XI  I receive an error message  "Scanner Driver is not installed or scanner is not connected"  How do I fix, as my Brother MFC printer/scanner is connected, as I can print OK.  Plus the scanner is working OK in Acrobat on a different computer?

    You can try installing twain twacker and see if the driver is working properly. You can download twacker from:
    http://www.twain.org/scannerdriverdevelopers/specification-and-tools.html
    If the scanner is working properly with twacker that would mean there are no issues with the scanner drivers.

  • My Canon Pixma MX420 scanner driver is not conpatible with Windows 8 64 bit.

    I have tried all the drivers.  All I get is a window stating Cannot start MP Navigator EX.  Everything works except the scanner.  It just disappeared.  Are there any compatible drivers that actually work for my Windows 8 64bit?

    Hi rlhag,
    This means that the scanner driver was not installed correctly.  What we should do is try to reinstall the drivers while in Selective Startup to see if this helps.  What this will do is disable all background programs and should allow the scanner to install correctly.  Please perform the following:
     1.  Press the ‘Windows + R’ key on the keyboard. In the Run Windows’s ‘Open box:' type ’msconfig’ (Without the quotation marks) and click ‘OK’.
     2.  Click on Selective Startup, then uncheck the two boxes.
     3.  Click Apply, then OK.
     4.  Confirm the reboot.
    We can then perform the reinstall.  To do this, please follow these steps:
     1.  Put the PIXMA MX420's CDROM in the CDROM drive.  If the welcome screen appears, exit it. 
     2.  Click on Start and then Run.  If Run is not in your Start menu, please follow these steps to add it:
           2-1.  Click Start.
           2-2.  Right click the Start menu and left click on Properties.
           2-3.  Click on the Customize button next to 'Start Menu'.
           2-4.  In the Customize Start Menu window, place a checkmark next to 'Run Command'.
           2-5.  Click OK in the Customize Start Menu window.
           2-6.  Click OK in the Properties window.
     3.  Click Browse.  In the browse window, on the left hand side in the row of big icons, click on My Computer. 
     4.  In the window to the right, double click the CANON_IJ CDROM. 
     5.  Double click the folder named WIN.
     6.  Double click the folder named Driver.
     7.  Double click the folder named DrvSetup.
     8.  Double click the file named DELDRV64.  In the Run box click ok.  Follow the on-screen prompts to remove the driver.
    Once complete, please follow these steps:
     1.  Click on Start and then Run.
     2.  In the window to the right, double click the CANON_IJ CDROM. 
     3.  Double click the folder named WIN.
     4.  Double click the folder named Driver.
     5.  Double click the folder named LAN.
     6.  Double click the file named CNMNPU.exe.
     7.  In the Run box click ok.
     8.  Follow the prompts to uninstall.
     9.  Once complete, restart the computer.
    To install the unit for use over your network wirelessly, please follow these steps when the computer restarts:
     1.  Press the <Setup> button.
     2.  Use the up or down button to select Yes for Wireless LAN activate and press <OK>.  Once enabled, the Wi-Fi lamp lights blue.
     3.  Select Easy setup and press <OK>.
     4.  Select your access point name and press <OK>.
     5.  Enter your WEP key and press <OK>.  Please verify the WEP, as it is case sensitive and if entered incorrectly, will cause the printer and router to not communicate.  To switch between letters and numbers, press the * key.
     6.  Press <OK> on the confirmation screen.  The PIXMA MX420 will search for the access point.
     7.  When found, press <OK> on the Connected to the access point screen.
     8.  Take out and then reinsert the CDROM that came with the PIXMA MX420.  The setup program will start automatically.
     9.  If the Autoplay screen appears, click Run and then Continue.
    10.  Click on Easy Install.
    11.  When the Easy Install screen appears, click Install and then "Use the printer with wireless LAN connection" and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
    After it is installed, we need to return to Normal Startup.  To do this, press the ‘Windows + R’ key on the keyboard. In the Run Windows’s ‘Open box:' type ’msconfig’ (Without the quotation marks) and click ‘OK’.  Click Normal Startup and then try to use the printer.

  • Acrobat 9 Standard won't recognize Canon Lide 200 Scanner

    My recently installed Acrobat 9 Standard won't recognize my  Canon Lide 200 scanner even though Adobe Photoshop CS2 does.  I don't know what the problem is and how to solve it.

    Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 was recently installed on new Vista 64bit computer and functions with all programs and even prints to my Dell 1600n printer, but when I try to scan from the printer, it causes this error message and shuts Acrobat down:
    "ADOBE ACROBAT HAS STOPED WORKING A Problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    I have lived with this since I bought the computer a month ago. Still no solution from Adobe and no response to an email that I sent to adobe support.

  • Printer driver was not installed.  operation could not be completed

    Adobe Acrobat 9.3.1
    windows XP system.
    Cannot add the Adobe PDF printer get the error message:
    Printer driver was not installed.  operation could not be completed
    Software installs/repair try to install the Adobe PDF printer but they do not.  No error message; just that the Adobe PDF printer does not show up
    I tried adding the  Adobe PDF printer manually.
    The drivers start to load and then fails giving the error message  in the subject line.
    I cleared the print spoolers and rebooted.
    I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobat /rebooted/reinstalled.  Install says it adds the Adobe PDF printer but nothing happens.
    Problem exists for all users including Administrators.
    I have renamed the C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86 and C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\Printers folder.
    Both are recreated when I try to reinstall the Adobe PDF Printer.
    I can add network printers with no errors.
    I have cleared Adobe PDF printer from registry.  e.g.:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3\Adobe PDF Converter
    I even imported Adobe PDF registry entry from a working system taking care to adjust the system values accordingly.
    I also verified permissions for registry keys and application/driver folders were set correctly.
    I have completely reloaded the installation software and imported the Adobe PDF drivers from a working system.
    Not sure if this an Adobe issue, but that appears to be the only printer I cannot re-add.
    Any constructive ideas on what to try next would be appreciated.

    When I upgraded to Reader 9.4 I lost all ability to print Adobe pdf's.  Finally uninstalled 9.4, re-installed 8.2, changed the filename "high quality.joboptions" to "Adobe PDF converter.joboptions" and was back in business.  Pretty screwey fix, but after getting no help from online chats with Adobe and a day's lost work I was happy to have it.

    Solution 1: Use a supported installation.
    The following are unsupported installations, and the supported solutions:
    If you install Acrobat (Professional or Standard) on a 64-bit operating system, then you may
    see this error. Please update Acrobat to version 8.1 or later. You can update from within
    Acrobat via the help pull-down menu, or download the updater from the following location:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows.
    If you install Acrobat to a shared network disk instead of a local hard disk, then the Adobe PDF
    printer is not installed. Install Acrobat on a local hard disk.

    I am having similar problems. After years of successful use, about a year ago, my printer (Epson stylus Photo R300) stopped working. After much investigation, it appears my computer no longer recognizes my printer. I've followed resets, safe boots, uninstalls, reinstalls, etc. This happened so long ago, I don't recall what I was doing when it happened. I'm figuring it happened shortly after a Software Update... So far none of the fixes recommended to me have solved the problem. I've been using Epson customer support, but they've stopped responding. None of their suggestions have seemed to work either.

    How do I fix the problem?

    Hi Dave_C,
    I understand the software isn't installing properly.
    I will be happy to help you.
    I would do a level 3 uninstall and reinstall the software again.
    Go to the tiles screen, (start up screen)
    start typing %temp%, open the folder starting with 7z, (Example: 7zS2356) util, ccc, uninstall_L3.
    When the uninstall has completed, restart the computer.
    Here is a URL to temporarily disable all the start up programs to see if one of them is causing any issues.
    How To Change Windows 8 Startup Programs.
    Temporarily turn off any Antivirus software.
    Then reinstall the software again.
    You will have to follow the same steps to enable all again and turn the Antivirus software back on again.
    Hope this helps.
