I'm on a Windows10 Home machine, I have a Canon LiDE 80 which I fairly sure uses a TWAIN driver. Canon doesn't support this machine on Windows10. I don't have a driver for the scanner. I was hoping NAPS2 would make the scanner work. NAPS2 is installed and I've created a profile, regardless if I select WAI or TWAIN, NAPS2 can't find a scanner. The scanner works with Canon software on an old XP machine. The Windows10 machine recognizes that the Canon LIDE 80 doesn't have a driver.
Have you tried installing the Windows 7 driver from here?

I downloaded that and tried installing. Executing the downloaded file causes Canon IJ Scanner Driver to make changes, allowing that it looks like it kicks of winzip and perhaps other but it never completes. I suspect it detects a difference in operation systems.
Hi Warren, If you want to use it under Windows 10 you can try Vuescan from https://www.hamrick.com/ alternatievly I have built a Virtual Machine with Windows 7 and use the driver in that.
