According to Canon the Multipass L60 is not compatible with Windows 2000 or XP.
Does anyone have any solutions??

Thanks!

For Windows 2000 I created a working solutions myself, but I haven't tested it in Windows XP.

The trick is using the Multipass 6000 driver for windows 2000. This printer is compatible with the MPL60. You need to edit the driver-inifiles (both copies of mpmaster.ini). as follows:

[Setup]
ModelName=MultiPASS L60
SGModelName=Canon MultiPASS L60
BaseName=MultiPASS
PrinterName=Canon MultiPASS L60 Printer
Version=3.01
NTonly=1

[DeviceID]
MFG=Canon
MDL=MultiPASS L60

Don't expecta working solution from canon, they don't support their stuff. We threw out several canon laserprinters allready bcause there a no working drivers.

Leon's solution for fixing the (US)
MPL6000 driver to run with an MPL60
works!! ...but not exactly as worded above.
You can download the complete fix here...

I used the WINXP driver for the
MPL6000 available here
http://209.85.7.18/techsupport.php?q=do
wnload&p=mpl6000 ...and
it worked just fine - just dont run the
second setup file - setup2.exe,
which is included in the download and is
an update/patch.

Good luck! and many thanks again to
Leon, I knew I should not have believed
all those canon reps when they told me it
was not possible!!
