Kiitokset vastauksista. En saa toimimaan, ja epäilen itsekin että syynä on USB-LPT adapteri (joka tuli siis turhaan hankittua). Ei näissä nykyisissä koneissa ole LPT-porttia, eikä telakkaa.
Harmittaa, kun tarvitsisin kipeästi pientä laseria! Mustesuihkua en raaskisi käyttää, kun on niin paljon drafteja printattavana.
Pakko kai luovuttaa ja laittaa rakkine myyntiin...

CANON LBP – 460 Driver Instruction Manual

After reading on Canon’s support site that allegedly it is not possible to install this printer under Windows XP/2000/NT, I have done some research and would like now to prove the opposite. The solution is not so complex, and, in fact, on many forums people have made relatively good efforts, but they gave up too early. Basic starting point is a nearly identically constructed printer LBP-660 with only difference being the resolution it is able to support. LBP-660 can support 600 dpi whereas LBP-460 – only 300 dpi. Canon does offer driver solution for LBP-660 for Windows XP/2000/NT. After having a look into “downward compatibility” between the printers and creating a few small registry changes, my printer started to work perfectly. I have also noticed some performance improvement: before it used to print about 4 pages a minute, and now it does 7-8. I hope that trying my solution will make your printer fully functional. I would be very grateful for any feedback. Naturally I give no guarantees, no warranty, and Canon also does not give any support for my solution.

1. Unpack canon-lbp460-treiber.zip into the directory of your choice, e.g. C:\Canon-LBP460
2. Check that the LPT port is working in EPP Mode… No ECP!!! This Printer cannot communicate with PC in ECP Mode.
a. See your motherboard’s operating instructions on how to change this option in BIOS
3. Uninstall ALL old Canon drivers, e.g. from previous attempts of trying to make this work.
a. Look in C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86
4. Shut down the PC
5. Connect the Printer
6. Start the PC
a. Printer can now be installed for a single user profile only
7. Windows will recognise the new printer as LBP-460LW, otherwise go to install the printer manually.
8. During the installation, select NO to the question whether the file for Windows 3.11/95/ME is to be released. The printer release on the network is made later via the system control.
9. Restart the PC!
10. In the system control panel the printer is now indicated as Canon LBP-660.
11. Run LBP460.reg mentioned above (double-click to import it into the registry)
12. Before the first printing test you absolutely must go into the printer properties and adjust maximum resolution to 300dpi (for any Printing Preferences and Defaults)!!! Do not try with the automatically selected setting of 600dpi!!! You will have to repeat the installation all over again because the printer only supports 300 dpi
13. The printer can now be released onto the network, etc…
14. If you want to use the printer for several user profiles, you need to
a. login into each profile
b. run LBP460.reg (double-click)
c. then carefully follow steps from number 12 above (300dpi!!!)

Anyone who has followed the steps carefully should have perfect results when printing under XP
