38380 2002-03-09 02:48:00 Can anyone help please. I have a Canon BJC-70 and am using it with an older Laptop which only has a floppy drive.
I need to reinstal the driver for the printer but have not got the original driver on the manufacturer's floppy to instal. I visited the web site and could download a recent driver using my desktop PC. My laptop is not internet ready being an old 486. The only problem is the driver size is 3.1mb which is too much to put on a floppy. has any one a solution to my problem. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

38381 2002-03-09 03:10:00 I did this recently on a work based no internet system and no pc link between them, have you got winrar. If you have you could download to your net ready system and use winrar to split the file into floppy size portions and then just put it all back together on the laptop.
Winzip, I think that does multi bit files as well.

Maybe someone else will have a better idea or method.
