Installing the Canon MX490 Scanner Driver

Before explaining the installation process for the Canon MX490 scanner driver, it's important to highlight the versions of operating systems that these drivers are compatible with. That being said, as of 2024, Canon offers full support for Windows and MacOS. This means that the drivers are compatible with all available OS versions (Windows versions from XP to Windows 11, and MacOS versions from MacOS 10.13 to 14). When it comes to Linux, there is still no support for this precise model, although Canon is continuously working on improving their support range. 

To get access to the latest Canon MX490 scanner driver for Windows and MacOS, simply scroll to the bottom of the page, complete the Captcha verification, and press the Download button. Once the files are downloaded, locate them, right-click on the zipped folder, and select the Unzip or Extract option to gain access to the drivers. 

The unzipped folder will have Windows and MacOS subfolders, both of which will contain several Canon files that require setup. Windows users will find a series of executable (exe) files, which they can run by double-clicking on them. Similarly, MacOS users will find dmg archives, which can be installed properly by dragging the archives over to the Applications folder and dropping them inside the folder. This will automatically install the software from the dmg archives.
