Canon Lide 200 Windows 7 Problems

If the scanner driver is installed in Windows 8, and if Windows 8 is upgraded to Windows 8.1 while keeping the scanner driver installed, scanning from the product (by using the SCAN button) may not be available. Re-install the scanner driver after upgrading to Windows 8.1. My LIDE 90, not compatible with Windows 10, had a simpler, more useful, interface. Worked for me on my Canon Lide 120. Buttons on LiDE 120 dont work. Canon offers a wide range of compatible supplies and accessories that can enhance your user experience with you CanoScan LiDE 200 that you can purchase direct.

Good day everybody,

I am having issues getting my Canon LiDE 120 scanner working with my Windows 8.1 (64bit) PC. I have tested the device using a Windows 7 PC and it worked fine there. I also know that several people have also got it working on Windows 8.1 devices so the issue must be with my PC. I would greatly appreciate any advice that will help me get the scanner to work!

After contacting Canon support I was told that the issue lies with Windows, and not the scanner itself. Using my event log, they got this:'Every occasion when you try to install or plug in the Scanner to this computer the Windows documents the source of the problem':The description for Event ID 123 from source Microsoft-Windows-DeviceSetupManager cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

  • The Issue

Simply put, the PC seems to have trouble communicating with the scanner, with it often displaying error codes: 2, 156, 182, 55 and 77. I have tried a number of different programs to scan my documents and pictures but the problem persists.

  • Below are some examples of what happens:

  • The scanner does not 'react' to my request to scan something (Viasoftware or physical buttons on device)

  • The scanner 'warms up' and remains in this mode for a couple ofminutes before displaying (some of) the errors above.
  • The scanner warms up, begins to scan and manages to scan anything upto (about) 90% of the scanning surface before failing and displayingthe above errors again.

  • What I have tried

    1. Installed accompanying software with the included 'Installation CD'.
    2. Downloaded the entire content of the installation CD directly from the Canon website.
    3. Downloaded the 'Driver' only via Canon
    4. Plugged in the device to Windows and let it download the Driver on its own.
    5. I have tried VueScan (Free), Windows Fax & Scan, Scan (Windows 8.1 App).
    6. Uninstalled all traces of previous scanner (A HP Scanner)
    7. Used Revo Uninstaller after every uninstall
    8. I reset my PC and reinstalled Windows 8.1 - again, to no avail.

Thank you for your time, I look forward to your posts!

There may be a problem with the USB communication to the scanner. Try a different USB cable, a different USB port, etc. I know that earlier Canon LiDE scanners are pretty fussy about the USB, and came with shielded USB cables with ferrite chokes and would sometimes refuse to work with unchoked cables that worked fine with all sorts of other devices.
