According to the Canon Australian site, this printer is not compatible with Windows XP or Vista.

I saw quite a few posts on other forums that suggest that it does not work in XP, so you may have an issue with it. See the cannon support page here.

However, I also found a link to XP drivers here. You may want to give it a try.

On another note, the NT compatability database suggests that it does work, but gives no details. See here.

Can anyone help me with this?

I used an LBP660 for 4 years with XP. The driver I used was w2k66112.exe, 1,163KB dated 30 Nov 2000. Get in touch (PM) if you want a copy, but it is still available on the Canon site.

It won't work with Vista because Vista rejects anything with an NT4 signature. So I keep an old drive with XP on it, and simply swap over to it if I need to print something.
