Is there no Canon ipF 8300 driver yet for Windows 8?

The one for Windows 7 will likely work fine.

I forgot, I installed drivers on my laptop which is running Win 8. Looks like I just used the Windows 7 drivers from http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/professional/professional_printers/imageprograf_series/imageprograf_ipf8300#DriversAndSoftware.

Thanks.  I tried to install driver for 7 into a Win 8 virtual machine from latest Parallels so could use Qimage there.  Had failure "cannot install on this architecture" so assumed was driver problem.  Now seems more likely a Parallels virtualization problem ( maybe my setting to pass thru Mac Printers which doesn't work either).
