does my computer have to have a cd drive to set it up???

I don't think so. You can always download the drivers from the Canon website. In fact, I recommend doing it that way to ensure you have the latest drivers.

Hi, Give me until tomorrow to answer this, as i will take a look at the manual. I did set it up with my husband's laptop as my netbook does not have cd capability, but it then picked the printer up (the notebook) wirelessly. But if it is to set it up for the first time, i will check and get back to you.

You should be able to find and download the drivers from Canon's website but I didnt install it that way.

Yes , this is a USB interface to the computer. Usually there is a CD for installation... but not necessary

No, this has no DVD/CD drive. Most people don't need one. You would need an external CD drive, or a different system that included an internal cd/dvd drive to do what you're describing.

You will need an external cd/dvd drive. There is not an internal one in this model.

I bought this for my Dad, who has a mac mini. It was certainly not the easiest thing to install. We did have to download (from the 'net) a driver for this to work. So, no, you don't need a CD drive, but you DO need the internet

No, the laptop does not have a CD /DVD drive. You are able to connect an external one to the laptop, if that helps.

Greetings. The CD is a must for the installation. Thanks for your question.

You do not need a CD drive, just a USB port. Documents saved on computer hard drive or USB drive. Not sure about Windows 8

This computer actually has a CD reader unit. I don't know if that is your inquiry related to

It does not and also does not come standard with a cd drive. Just so you know

You can add a usb cd/dvd drive otherwise you could replace one of the existing drives with one that you would like, but you would have to open the case and install it. I warn you that this takes some knowledge about computers and don't recommend it if you are not comfortable and familiar with the insides of computers.

No it does not. You would need an external cd hard drive to connect to this computer.

no, I did install one, but hardly use it. There are some CD/DVD/BR that do not image correctly to the hard disk, but copy ok when duplicated from one drive to the other (like MS windows)

No there is no cd/did drive. Being an Ultrabook, it is designed to be super light and portable so a portable would be needed if you're using disc's.

Yes it does. I think it requires one before it will work. I had one laying around anyway so thats what i used but when i took it out of the box and tried to set it up it just sat there until i put the drive in and then it came up.

Unfortunately no. It is a Notebook. No cd/dvd drive. Now that I have had this thing for a while, I realized, I made a mistake. If all you want to do is surf the net, read emails, or watch things like Netflix, then it's fine. As a computer, it sucks!
