After a hard drive replacement, I had to reinstall Microsoft Office and a couple other things, but all that went well. The problem is the Canon Pixma MP560.  I tried to use it and couldn't.  System preferences said it needed software, but it couldn't find it and directed me to get it from the manufacturer.  I went to canon.com and then to the USA page.  Looked at drivers.  I downloaded the scanner drivers they describe as:
ICA Driver Ver 1.11 On (OSX 10.6/10.7/10.8
MP 560 series scanner driver Ver 15.5.2a (OSX

After installing, the scanner seemed to work fine, but the printer function does not work.  After looking over the web site, I could find only one printer driver that they describe:
MP560 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver 10.67.10
I doubted that it was the right one, but I downloaded and installed anyway.  However, my hunch was right.  The printer function still does not work. Can you direct me to the printer driver that I need? I tried to install the original installation software, but a warning box came up to say that this software was no longer supported and should not be installed.

According to Canon’s support article here, The 560 isn’t supported in 10.8 however, that doesn’t mean it won’t work. I would suggest downloading the 10.7 driver that can be found here. There’s a recent post on this same issue in Apple’s discussion forums. The suggestion was made to first reset the print system before reinstalling the 10.7 drivers via the previous link download. I’ve described how to reset the print system in the answers section before.

Since your drive was in bad condition I didn’t clone it over to the new drive. By using time machine to restore the data, I skipped over the microsoft office product key which time machine doesn’t not include in its backup strategy due to its location in the Library folder to reduce piracy. Glad you had your old discs and product key. It may have also missed the print drivers since those are also located in the computer’s library folder.
