Download the hardware for MP-Y3 (we cannot find CD Rom)

"MP" stands for Multimedia Pocket.

In other words the optical drive or the CD-ROM Drive.

If there is no CD-ROM on your CF-30, this is normal
because when these units were brand-new, the CD-ROM
drive was an optional unit costing hundreds of dollars.

Good Luck.

Hi ...

If you have the driver CD that you recieved with your printer, follow the below steps to install the saftware:

1. Turn on your computer.
   
   
2. On your computer quit any open applications, including virus checkers.
   
   
3. Insert the MultiPASS MP730/700 Setup CD-ROM into your CD drive. The [MP Setup] splash screen will appear automatically.
   
   
4. 1. If MP Setup does not start automatically, on the Windows desktop, double-click My Computer (on Windows XP, click Start then click My Computer).
      
      
   2. Double-click the CD-ROM icon. If MP Setup does not start, double-click 'Setup.exe' (on Windows XP, 'Setup').
      
      
5. In the MP Setup splash screen, click 'Install MP Drivers'.
   
   Note: For Windows 2000 users, if Service Pack 1 or later is not installed, MP Setup will display a message and installation will be aborted.
   
   
6. Follow the on-screen instructions, clicking the appropriate button to move from one screen to the next.

DEAR THE DVD ROM DRIVE IS A HARDWARE NOT A SOFTWARE.IN ODER TO INSTALL CD U HAVE TO PURCHASE A DVD ROM DRIVE .YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE SOFTWARE NERO 7.1

My Canon PIXMA MP500, purchased in mid-2006, came with the (then) ScanSoft OmniPage SE2 software on a CD. The PC had WinXP Installed. I had no use for the ScanSoft it so I made no effort to install it.
Fast Forward:
Two PC crashes later, July 2009. Using Win Vista Home Premium
LOST, important WinWord document file, only a hard copy available.
I tried to recover, scanning the "Xerox" copy. The SE Version of OmniPage was very complicated but I succeeded in producing a replacement *.doc file.

It appears that newer editions of WinVista contain the right printer drivers for this Canon Model.

From Canon download page download driver for your OS and install it.
Download and follow instructions in user manual too

Click on this link to get the drivers you need

Where can I get the driver for my CD-ROM?
Visit our hardware download section to obtain a generic CD-ROM driver (oakcdrom.sys) and mscdex.exe if needed.
If you are looking for a specific driver for your CD-ROM drive or a Firmware update, please see our CD-ROM driver page.

Dont for get to Vote / Merry Christmas.......Good Luck!
