The Canon imageRUNNER 1025N driver allows Windows to communicate with this network-connected multifunction device and send print jobs using the appropriate settings. Installing a compatible Canon driver helps your computer recognize the printer and makes its supported printing options available from everyday applications.

Key Features

• Network printing support: Connects your Windows computer to the imageRUNNER 1025N over a local network, allowing you to print without a direct USB connection.
• Device-specific print settings: Provides access to supported options such as paper size, page orientation, copy count, and output preferences.
• Windows application integration: Makes the printer available through standard print dialogs in document editors, PDF readers, and other desktop software.
• Printer configuration: Helps Windows use the correct device profile rather than relying solely on a generic printer driver. Available settings depend on the selected driver package and the printer’s configuration.

How to Install

1. Check your Windows version. Identify whether your computer runs Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7, and confirm its system architecture. Choose a Canon imageRUNNER 1025N driver package that explicitly supports your operating system; compatibility may vary between packages.

1. Prepare the network connection. Turn on the printer and ensure it is connected to a network your computer can access. If needed, locate the printer’s IP address through its network settings or a configuration report.

1. Download and extract the driver. Save the matching package to your computer. If it is compressed, extract its contents before starting installation.

1. Run the installer or add the printer manually. Follow the setup prompts and select the network connection option when offered. If automatic discovery does not find the device, use Windows printer settings to add it by IP address and select the extracted driver.

1. Verify the setup. Open the printer’s properties and print a test page. Check the paper and output settings before sending larger jobs.

Printing and scanning may require separate software. If you need scanning features, check for an additional Canon package compatible with your Windows version.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Driver install fails or rolls back: Run the Canon UFR II LT installer as administrator, pause antivirus temporarily, and confirm you downloaded the correct 32/64-bit package for the imageRUNNER 1025N. Restart before retrying.
• Device not detected on the network: Verify the printer’s IP address and that it is on the same subnet as the PC. Ping the IP, then add the imageRUNNER 1025N manually using a Standard TCP/IP port instead of auto-discovery.
• Version conflicts or duplicate queues: Remove old Canon imageRUNNER/UFR II drivers and stale print queues in Print Management, restart the Print Spooler service, then install the latest driver cleanly.
