Installing the Printer Driver (Canon Advanced Printing Technology (CAPT))
CAPT offers bidirectional communication between the computer and machine. To take 
advantage of the bidirectional communication, one end of a bidirectional parallel cable 
connects to the printer and the other end connects directly to your computer.
Every time you print, CAPT displays the Canon iC D800 Status Window. This window shows 
you the paper moving through the machine, how long it will take to print the document, and 
how much of the document has printed. From the Status Window you can pause, resume, or 
delete the current print job.
If a printing problem occurs, the Canon iC D800 Status Window automatically opens and 
identifies the problem.
Before using CAPT, make sure you select it as your current Windows printer driver.

NOTE
• You can open the Properties dialog box from the Printers folder. The number of tabs 
displayed in the Properties dialog box depends on how you have your system set up. 
Screens examples use Windows 98.
• The way you get to the dialog boxes determines how long the printing options remain 
in effect:
If you start from an application’s Print... command, your choices apply only to 
that print job. They will not be stored when you close the application.
If you start from the Printers folder, the settings apply to all Windows 
applications and remain in effect until you change those settings. 
• For more information about the following features, see the online Help. To display the 
online help, select the item you want more information about and press F1, or click ?
