Just found it on the Canon site and installed it - works great. Cheers.

867715 2010-03-18 07:20:00 Today was little laser printer day for me. Does reasonably good work and has 64 bit drivers for Linux and Win7. Price was ok, and with the toner extension trick on the web it should be reasonably thrifty. Doesn't warm the room like the big one though.

BUT - does anybody know how to disable the @#!* beeper on the thing before I give it some Frisbee time?

Screwdriver + sidecutters? Don't forget to peel off the warranty stickers!

That's not bad.
The longest I had a printer was 8 years. Now, I half expect my new one I bought to die 2 days after it's 1 yr warranty expires.
