I too have a Canon LIDE-80 Scanner USB 2.0 and have not been able to get it
to scan either. I continue to get a TWAIN error dispite my numerous attempts
to uninstall the driver using the DelDrv2032W.exe download from Canon;
reinstalled the updated Scanner Driver Scan Gear CS Ver 7.2.5.0 for winXP;
reinstalled the CanoScan Toolbox ver 4.1.3.1 for WinXP. When I plug the
scanner in, it too displays new Hardware Found Canon LIDE80....."your
hardware is ready to use". As soon as I select either from the panel or from
the ToolBox I get the following TWO errors.... first... from SCAN GEAR
CS..."Error in scanner turn off and follow instructions in manual Scanner
will be closed Scanner Code 2,250,0"... followed by ... this error from CANO
SCAN TOOL BOX " TWAIN data transfer error"...... first there are no
instructions related to the above in the manual and second, I made sure I did
not install the WIA driver because it has a known conflict with ScanGear CS.
I am open to suggestions since this is a new right out of the box scanner.
Respectfully submitted,
