Drivers For Canoscan Lide 700f Troubleshooting

For those having the 'Executes calibration. Pull out the film and place the Film Adapter Unit at Frame 1.' Issue and cannot calibrate the scanner for NEGATIVE FILM, it took me ages to figure out how to solve it.

Solution: calibrate the frame, WITHOUT any film, adapter plug and placed in frame 1, and proceed to do the calibration WITH THE SCANNER COVER OPEN. Before I tried everyhing, install new drivers for Windows 8.1, MP Navigator, and nothing happen. Now it works like the first day.

Hope it helps! It certainly helped me. Jan 29, 2013 . Guide to installing Canon CanoScan LiDE 35, 50 and 60 on Mac OS X 10.8.

Hi, I cannot scan with my Canon LiDE 500F from within Windows Fax and Scan. The following error message appears: No scanners were installed. If a scanner is installed, make sure that it is powered on and connected to the computer, and then try again.

It is connected and powered via USB. It shows under devices in control panel - Right click on it's icon and then properties: it is working properly. - Right click on it's icon and then Scan Profiles or Scan Properties: I get an error message telling that I need a WIA driver. I cannot find a WIA driver for it on the Canon site. Does anybody have a WIA driver for this LiDE 500F? Or does anybody have a workaround to make this work?

MS Office OneNote 2010 4. Other shareware and comercial software that I have tested It does however NOT work with the following MS software: 4. Windows Live Photo Gallery 5.

Windows Fax and Scan These 2 programs need a WIA driver (Windows Image Aquisition) which is not a TWAIN driver. The problem is the non-existance of a WIA-driver for the LiDE 500F scanner (and many other scanners from many other brands).

I think that MS should understand that every scanner and camera manufacturer supports the TWAIN techhnology and that very few of them also support the WIA technology from MS. I am afraid that I am out of luck with my scanner due to the lack of a WIA scanner for it. - Canon and most of the other manufacturers only make TWAIN compatible scanners - MS makes only WIA compatible software Regards Picsoe.

WIA has existed since WinXP days. I'm guessing that most if not all scanners that have been released in the last few years have WIA-compliant drivers. On Canon's support site, I see that they didn't publish WIA drivers for Vista, just XP. And browsing the inbox drivers, I can see that there are several models of Canon scanners (mainly look like things in the MP line) that have support included with Windows 7. But not this one unfortunately.

I'm not sure why the apps don't work with the TWAIN driver. I'd suggest starting a new thread in the Windows 7 Application Compatibility forum to see if other folks here have a solution for that. BTW, Canon has stated that your device will have Windows 7 drivers made for it. I can't figure out how to link directly to the article in their knowledge base, but here it is: Issue: Will my product be supported in Windows 7? Solution: Microsoft Windows 7 Compatibility and Support Schedule (Consumer Scanners).

The Flatbed Scanners to support Windows 7 as of July 2009 are shown below. The products which are not listed below will not support Windows 7 in the future. Hi Mark, Thank you so much for trying to help me. But be assured that I knew all this - I really have done all possible research inside and outside Microsoft for solutions to the problem. The problem existed already with Vista Home Premium and continues now under Windows 7. I have been sent in vain from one site to another by people trying to help me - but right now I give up - I really have had it. No money for Windows 7 from me until this problem is solved - I simply need a solution to it for my dayly work - this problem costs me too much money every day.

Regards A Windows lover who is becoming slowly but surely a Windows hater. Regards Picsoe. Microsoft supports both Twain-and WIA technology. But not in the 2 Microsoft Programs that I mentiond - Windows Live Photo Gallery - Windows Fax and Scan These 2 Microsoft Programs only support WIA for a change and my scanner is TWAIN based like most scanners on the market. Microsoft is by consequence not consistent: They should support both technologies for all their software without making an exception for these 2 programs. I am not asking MS to make software for a Canon product, I ask the to be consistent in their support of different types hardware (in this case TWAIN and WIA). So who is childish now Regards Picsoe.

Microsoft does make a standard interface for the vendors to design their software and drivers to interface to. It is the hardware vendors who have to provide the software for their hardware to work in Windows 7. Every hardware vendor has to use the same interface.

So, if Epson or HP provides the software for their products, then it's up to Canon to provide the software for their products. You complaint about Microsoft it totally without logic. Microsoft's support is consistent. Canon is not consistent. When it says Application Writers it means the vendors of the hardware. Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Microsoft Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) is the still image acquisition platform in the Windows family of operating systems starting with Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me) and Windows XP. • • • • • • • • • • • Introduction The WIA platform enables imaging/graphics applications to interact with imaging hardware and standardizes the interaction between different applications and scanners.

This allows those different applications to talk to and interact with those different scanners without requiring the application writers and scanner manufactures to customize their application or drivers for each application-device combination. Benefits of Windows Image Acquisition 2.0 WIA provides benefits to application developers, device manufacturers, and scanner users who need to interact with imaging hardware. For Application Writers • Windows runs a certification process for WIA drivers so WIA applications are guaranteed to be base-level compatible with all WIA-based scanners. • WIA drivers are loaded in the WIA service process, thus providing a more stable driver environment.

• Applications can be initiated from the scanner scan button via push events supported by the WIA subsystem. • The WIA includes a default segmentation filter that all drivers can take advantage of; this way, applications do not have to write code for multi-region scanning for purposes such as separating out a large number of photos spread over a flatbed scanner. For Device Manufactures • WIA driver certification process helps driver developers in establishing that their driver is WIA-compliant. • WIA drivers can take advantage of a built-in segmentation filter, image processing filter and error handler, if they choose to do so.

• WIA-based scanners work right out of the box on Windows with Windows scanning applications such as Windows Fax and Scan and Paint. • WIA drivers offer better integration with Windows such as the full device experience. • Windows Vista release includes a WSD-WIA class driver that enables all devices compliant with Web Services for Scanner (WS-Scan) protocol to work with WIA applications without any additional driver or software. For Scanner Users • WIA-based scanners can be used from Windows applications such Windows Fax and Scan and Paint without the need for any additional software. • WIA-based applications and scanners can also take advantage of WIA add-ons such as the segmentation filter which enables such features as processing a number of pictures on the scanner and scanning them all to individual files without user intervention. • WIA-based devices offers a much better integration with other Windows features such as the Device Stage feature for Windows 7.

• WIA provides a more robust, stable and reliable scanning experience by isolating the driver and the application. Development of Windows Image Acquisition The imaging architecture in Windows 2000 and Windows 95 or later consisted of a low-level hardware abstraction, Still Image Architecture (STI), and a high-level set of APIs known as TWAIN. In Windows XP and Windows Me WIA was introduced.

WIA is an imaging architecture that builds on STI and does not require TWAIN, although TWAIN is still supported alongside WIA. WIA 1.0 was introduced in Windows Me and Windows XP and supports scanners, digital cameras and digital video equipment.

WIA 2.0 was released with Windows Vista. WIA 2.0 is targeted towards scanners but continues to offer support for legacy WIA 1.0 applications and devices through a WIA 1.0 to WIA 2.0 compatibility layer provided by the WIA service.

However, video content support was removed from WIA for Windows Vista. We recommend Windows Portable Devices (WPD) API for digital cameras and digital video equipment in the future. WIA 1.0 as well as STI TWAIN drivers are still supported directly on Windows Vista and Windows 7 alongside native WIA 2.0 device drivers and imaging applications.

Overview of Windows Image Acquisition WIA provides a framework that allows a device to present its unique capabilities to the operating system and allows imaging applications to invoke those unique capabilities. The WIA platform includes a data acquisition protocol, a Device Driver Model and Interface (DDI), an API and a dedicated WIA service.

The platform also includes a set of built-in kernel mode drivers that support communication with imaging devices locally connected through USB, serial/parallel, SCSI and FireWire interfaces. The WIA subsystem also includes a transparent compatibility layer which allows TWAIN compatible applications to employ and use WIA-driver-based devices. Network connected imaging devices that support Web Services for Devices (WSD) protocol can also be used from WIA-compliant imaging applications on Windows Vista and Windows 7 out of the box via a WSD-WIA class driver that shipped as part of Windows Vista. The class driver converts WIA calls to WSD calls and vice versa and makes already existing WIA applications work with WSD based scanners without any additional driver. WIA drivers are made up of a user interface (UI) component and a core driver component, loaded into two different process spaces: UI in the application space and the driver core in the WIA service space.

The service runs in Local System context in Windows XP and runs in Local Service context starting with Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista for enhanced security against buggy or malicious drivers. The WIA API set exposes imaging applications to still image acquisition hardware functionality by providing support for: • Enumeration of available image acquisition devices.

• Creating connections to multiple devices simultaneously. • Querying properties of devices in a standard and expandable manner. • Acquiring device data by using standard and high performance transfer mechanisms. • Maintaining image properties across data transfers.

• Notification of device status and scan event handling. Windows added scripting support to WIA by releasing the WIA Automation Library in 2002 that was incorporated in Windows Vista as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Automation Layer 2.0 and continues to be a part of Windows 7.

The WIA Automation Library provides end-to-end image acquisition capabilities to automation-enabled application development environments and programming languages such as Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, Active Server Pages (ASP), VBScript and C#. For Windows 7, WIA APIs have additional support to complement the already existing push-scanning support. • Auto-configured device initiated scanning with scan parameters configured at the scanner on the device front panel. • Automatic source selection for device-initiated scan. Facts about Windows Image Acquisition 2.0 • The data transfer mechanism in WIA 2.0 is stream based.

The stream abstraction removes the distinction between different transfer types and also allows exchange of mutually agreed-upon metadata between device and application. • WIA 2.0 subsystem also includes a basic image processing filter driver add-on that is optionally replaceable by the scanner driver, if the driver chooses to provide a customized image processing filter. The built-in filter enables post processing of images acquired through the scanner. Image processing filter also enables live software previews when small settings such as brightness and contrast are adjusted. • The segmentation filter is another handy WIA component that can be replaced by a more customized filter by the scanner driver. The segmentation filter can be used for multi-region scanning. Multi-region scanning, as an example, allows an application to automatically detect different scan regions without any user intervention, such as identifying a bunch of photos lying randomly on the scanner flatbed.

• WIA 2.0 provides a replaceable/extensible error handler to gracefully handle, and possibly recover from, software, hardware and configuration errors and delays. The error handler is another WIA component that can be replaced with a more customized version by the scanner driver. This extension provides status and error messages during data acquisitions such as 'Lamp warming up,' 'Cover open,' 'Paper jam,' and so on. This extension also allows cleaner support for 'Cancel operations.' Developer Audience The WIA API is designed for use by C/C++ programmers. Familiarity with the Windows graphical user interface (GUI) and Component Object Model (COM) interfaces is required. For developers familiar with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, Active Server Pages (ASP), or scripting, WIA provides an automation layer for Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) or later that builds upon and simplifies access to the foundation provided by C/C++.

For information about the automation layer, see. Note The WIA Automation Layer supersedes Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) 1.0 scripting. Run-Time Requirements Applications that use the WIA API require Windows XP or later.

WIA Topics The WIA topics are organized as shown in the following table. General information about WIA WIA driver development WIA Automation Layer Walkthrough of code included in the software development kit (SDK) that focuses on specific tasks Information on WIA interfaces, methods, objects, and data types used in C/C++ and scripting.

OS supports TWAIN + WIA, apps support only WIA. Unfortunately I don't have an answer on that. I did some additional digging on the WIA issue. It's been a Windows Vista logo requirement since June 2006 that a driver must support WIA. So if you do decide to get a new scanner, you can look for one that has the 'Compatible with Windows 7' logo or a 'Certified for Windows Vista' logo. Or you can wait for updated drivers from Canon, and hope that they will provide WIA support with the new release. Want to know if your hardware will work on Windows 7?

Check out these links: ** ** ****. You may need to download Windows Vista driver and delete the driver then reinstall. Hi Dale, Thank you for your answer. I have the latest Vista driver from Canon, it is a TWAIN driver (Scangear 11220a).

I have installed it according to the guidelines provided by Canon. The programs that I was refering to in my initial post only work with a WIA driver although Windows officially supports both drivers (TWAIN & WIA). I discovered in the meantime that also 'Live Movie Maker' supports only WIA drivers and no TWAIN drivers. Please note that all my 'non-Microsoft programs' play very well with my scanner and it's latest Canon-TWAIN-driver (Scangear 11220a). All the scanner brands that I know have TWAIN drivers in the first place - only some of them provide also WIA drivers for their scanners. Microsoft is putting an extinguisher on her 'Live range of products' if she continues not to support TWAIN.

I am looking therefor for alternatives for the 'Live products' because of their limited support of hardware. It is painful for a MS-lover like me to leave the 'Live range', but I have no other solution- have I? B.t.w: I had the same problem under Vista Home Premium 32 bits too!!!!! Regards Picsoe.

The following sources declare that the LiDE 500F scanner is Vista and even Windows 7 compatible: - According to Canon product specifications - According to the 'Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor program from MS' It looks like they are both wrong: - Canon is wrong because they do not provide a WIA driver for this hardware - Microsoft is wrong because the 'Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor program from MS' says the scanner is OK And in the meantime I have a scanner that I cannot use with part of the OS on my machine.

This is inconsistency According to both sources (Canon & MS) everything should be working just fine It doesn't I invite both of them (Canon and MS) to come up with a solution to this problem!!! Regards Picsoe. Canon is not wrong as it is not required to provide a WIA driver unless it want to submit the driver for Microsoft's approval. If you get the driver directly from Canon (e.g. From the CD), then WIA is not required. You may notice that Canon only declare support for certain programs. Microsoft's programs are not necessarily supported by Canon.

In fact software's authors makes their own choice of what protocol the software supports. As a developer I dropped TWAIN support a decade ago due to its complexity and limitation on automation, I am not surprised Microsoft is doing the same. Not doing things in your preferred way is not wrong, the software is just not made for you. You always have option to get another software that can scan, for example, using the official software came on the scanner's CD.
