Canon imageCLASS MF455dw Drivers & Software

If you need to reinstall or repair the software for the imageCLASS MF455dw, start with the official Canon support route for this exact model and operating system. Avoid third-party driver-download sites.

What to do for the imageCLASS MF455dw

1. For Windows printing, use the current Canon MF/Generic Plus driver appropriate to the selected operating system.
2. For scanning, use MF Scan Utility and ScanGear MF as applicable instead of treating a working print driver as proof that scanning software is installed.
3. This model supports USB, Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct, so confirm which interface the existing queue was created for before reinstalling it.

Choose the connection you are actually using

The verified computer/network interfaces for the imageCLASS MF455dw are USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi Direct.

• USB: For a USB installation problem, test a direct computer-to-printer connection before introducing hubs or network discovery into the diagnosis.
• Wi-Fi: Confirm that the printer is already connected through the intended wireless setup before treating failure to discover it as a driver problem.
• Ethernet: For a wired installation, confirm the printer is connected to the intended network and that the computer can reach that network before reinstalling software.
• Wi-Fi Direct: Keep a direct printer-to-device connection separate from normal router-based Wi-Fi when checking discovery and queue problems.

Windows

macOS

Canon imageCLASS MF455dw Support > select macOS/version > use the currently offered UFR II/UFRII LT printer driver and ScanGear MF where applicable

macOS software/route identified for this model: UFR II/UFRII LT Printer Driver where offered and ScanGear MF.

If printing works but scanning does not

The imageCLASS MF455dw is a multifunction model, so treat printing and scanning as separate software paths when necessary.

Scanning software identified for this model: MF Scan Utility and ScanGear MF.

If the print queue works, check the model-supported scanning component above before removing a working printer queue or reinstalling unrelated printer software.

If the installer cannot find the imageCLASS MF455dw

1. Confirm that the support page and installer are for the exact imageCLASS MF455dw.
2. Confirm that the operating-system version selected on the manufacturer’s support page matches the computer.
3. Confirm that the printer is reachable through the connection method you are actually trying to install.
4. If a failed attempt created an incomplete or duplicate printer queue, remove only that failed queue. Do not delete a working queue unnecessarily.
5. Return to the official model support page and use the package or setup route currently offered for that operating system.

After a Windows or macOS update

Check the official imageCLASS MF455dw support page again before reinstalling old software. The manufacturer’s currently supported package or built-in operating-system route can change after an OS update.

When reinstalling the driver is probably not the fix

If a printer-generated page is already defective, troubleshoot print quality or hardware first. If the imageCLASS MF455dw works from another computer or device but not from this one, focus on the affected computer’s queue, software, permissions and application before changing the printer itself.
