[QUOTE="ovbg, post: 1650763, member: 162687"] Hi there, I have a Canon MP630 printer. Previously, it happily connected to my iMac for the last few years. Yesterday, I done a clean install of Yosemite because after 5 years, my iMac was starting to show its age. Now, the iMac works a lot better, but my Printer can not install. When I switched it on, no driver installed automatically as it did the first time I done this a few years ago. When I go into Printers at the Preferences Pane, it sees the printer, but when I click on it, it has no driver. When I click the "Use select software", no Canon printers appear. I have searched for drivers online, but can't seem to find any, with everything saying the driver should be in OSX automatically. I have Time Machine backups, but I have no idea where to find the actual driver to bring back. This isn't just my iMac, I have a new MacBook Pro and that has the same problem. How can I either get the old driver back from Time Machine, or where can I find a new one? [/QUOTE]
