The Canon imageCLASS D660 D680 printer driver enables Windows to communicate with your printer and send documents in a format it can process. Installing the correct driver helps make print settings available and can resolve problems caused by a missing or incorrectly matched driver.

Key Features

• Printer communication: Connects supported Windows applications with the Canon imageCLASS D660 or D680 so you can print documents from your computer.
• Print configuration: Provides access to settings such as paper size, orientation, and copy count, depending on the driver package and application.
• Model-specific support: Helps Windows identify the printer correctly instead of relying on a generic driver that may offer fewer settings.
• Troubleshooting support: Replacing a damaged or mismatched driver may help address printer detection errors, failed print jobs, or unavailable printing preferences.

How to Install

1. Check your Windows version. Confirm whether your computer runs Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7, and check its system type in Windows settings. These are older printer models, so do not assume that every available driver supports every listed Windows version.

1. Verify the download’s compatibility. Choose a Canon driver package that explicitly lists your printer model, Windows version, and system architecture. If Windows 11 or Windows 10 is not listed, check Canon’s compatibility guidance before attempting installation.

1. Prepare the printer and computer. Turn on the printer and close open applications. Follow the package instructions about when to connect the printer cable; some installers require you to wait until prompted. If you are replacing an existing driver, remove the old installation only when instructed or when troubleshooting a conflict.

1. Run the installation. Extract the downloaded package if necessary, then launch its setup program and follow the prompts. If the package has no installer, use Windows’ Add Printer wizard and select the supplied driver files when requested.

1. Confirm successful printing. Open the Windows printer settings, select the Canon imageCLASS D660 D680 printer entry, and print a test page. If printing fails, check the cable connection, selected printer port, and driver compatibility before reinstalling.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or stalls: Use the Canon D660/D680 driver package that matches your exact Windows version and bitness. Run the installer as administrator, close other printer software, and temporarily disable antivirus. Do not force an unsigned driver; use Canon’s signed package or Windows basic print driver.
• Device not detected: Connect the USB cable directly to the PC, not a hub. Confirm the printer is powered on and showing Ready. Try a different USB 2.0 port and cable, remove other USB printers, then reinstall.
• Version conflicts or duplicate queues: Uninstall older Canon imageCLASS drivers and remove stale queues in Print Management. Reboot before installing the current D660/D680 package. If scanning stops working, reinstall the Canon scan driver/MF Toolbox and select the correct device.
