Your MultiPASS comes with a Setup program that makes installing the MultiPASS software easy and fast.

You install the MultiPASS software from the Canon Creative for MultiPASS CD-ROM.

Important!

The MultiPASS must be plugged in. If you have a previous version of the MultiPASS Desktop Manager

installed, you must remove it. See your MultiPASS Desktop Manager Software Guide for details.

Click Cancel if you see a screen similar to these:

"New Hardware Found", "Update Device Driver

Wizard", or "Add New Hardware Wizard".
Make sure you return to the Windows desktop.

1. Make sure your computer is turned off.
2. Be sure the MultiPASS is plugged in and connected

to the computer.
3. Make sure the Canon Creative CD is NOT yet

inserted in your CD drive.
4. Now turn on the computer.
5. If any Windows applications start automatically,

close them before you start installation. This is very

important. Make sure NO programs are running,

including any virus protection programs.

Start up your system in this order:

Windows 95/98/2000/NT Parallel Cable Users

Make sure Windows starts.

1. Insert the Canon Creative CD into your CD drive.

(This CD contains all the device software for your

MultiPASS, including the MultiPASS Printer and

Fax drivers, MultiPASS ODBC, and ScanGear™

for MultiPASS.) Setup starts automatically.

When you see the Windows desktop, follow

these steps.

If Setup does not start automatically, from the

taskbar, click Start and then Run. You see the

Run screen.

If anything is displayed in the Open box, replace it

by typing

X:\SETUP

(where

X:

is your CD drive).

Then click OK.

2. Follow the on-screen instructions to

finish installation.
Normally you click Next or Finish

to move from one screen to the next.
Be sure to read each screen carefully.

When specifying your fax information,

you must enter a fax heading and

specify a Receive mode. Select your

Receive mode based on how you set

up your phone connection in Step .

When installation is complete, the Setup

program determines whether or not your

computer needs to be restarted.

The next time you start your

computer, you may see the

"New Hardware Found" screen.

Wait a few seconds while the

system updates itself; the screen

will disappear.

The next time you start your system,

double-click on the Canon Creative Launcher

icon on your desktop. From here you can

install the Canon Creative software, run the

software programs after they are installed,

register the MultiPASS, view the online

manuals, and find out how to order supplies

and get help from Canon.
