As Stephen already pointed out, you can d/l the CanonDisk from
http://www.hisoft.co.uk/studio/support.html

Or check out one of the european Canon WWW sites and download the
Amiga driver for the BJC 240 from there. The latest version is V3.97
and not 3.9. Make sure you do get 3.97 if using a BJC 2xx.

Canon should release the BJC 250 driver next week. In the meantime,
use the BJC 240 software. The only difference between the BJC 240 and
the BJC 250 is added support for Glossy and Banner paper as far as
software is concerned.
