Does anyone know where I can get the Windows Printing System drivers? I used to have a Canon BJC610 bubblejet printer that bit the dust a couple of years ago and I chunked everything. I was just given a used Canon BJC610 but no software. The ink cartridges were dried up and I replaced them. The printer is recognizing all colors but black. I've cleaned the print heads several times to no avail. I can manually clean the print heads directly on the printer, but my old Canon came with software that communicated directly with the printer through the Windows Printing System drivers and allowed me to do a lot of things through a software interface. Canon says the Windows Printing System drivers are no longer available for this printer.

Thanks! : )
 
Thanks Kimber. I had downloaded a driver file for the printer from Driver.com, but it wasn't the same as the one I had before that actually communicated with the printer via a software interface. It runs the printer, but not via the Windows Printing System driver.

I ran my old printer on Windows 98. I had Windows 95a prior to that, but can't remember if I purchased the printer before or after going to Windows 98, so the driver may have actually been in the Windows 95a software. I just downloaded it and will see.

 
HI, I need a driver for a hp deskjet 1000c professional series, for Windows 200, Me and Win 98SE

Thanks
 
OK, I downloaded the file and unpacked it in the DOS window, but there is no Readme file, no executable file, and no .inf file. As far as I can tell, there's nothing to install here. There's a bunch of WA_ files, HL_ files, an AP_ file, and a CN_ file.
