Can I download installation software for a printer off the internet somewhere?

My boyfriend is looking for a cheap printer (he doesn't print a whole lot, but when he does want to, it would come in handy. Well, I found this really good Canon Multipass 3-in-1 printer/scanner/copier at a thrift shop for $10. I don't know if the store is holding the installation CD in the back or something because it wasn't with the printer on the shelf. Just in case they don't have the CD (the owner didn't donate it with the printer or something), is there somewhere I can get the installation software so that he can set the printer up on his computer? This printer is a Canon Multipass F30. My mom has a Canon Multipass F60 that she has the software for. Could I use the F60's CD to install the F30? The store also has some other nice printers. Could I get installation software offline for any of these (just in case they don't have it. I'm assuming they do, but you never know): Canon S330 HP Deskjet 952C Lexmark Z22 Epson Stylus C60 Thanks! All I need is the drivers from the website? I never really pay attention to what I install from hardware CDs, I wasn't sure if there was more to it than that. Thanks! It's not working!!!! I tried to test it out before I buy the printer. I downloaded the drivers and stuff for the MultiPass that my mom has and tried hooking it up to see if it will work. The installation froze up and the computer won't recognize the printer, and now I can't even uninstall the program. Urrrgh.... Why can't I just plug it in and have it work. No software required (like mice, speakers, keyboards, etc)? That would be a million times easier..... Sigh. Can anyone else help me?

1. Go to Cannon's website, you should be able to download the drivers and software for it.
2. Most manufacturers of printers have the drivers and software on their websites under downloads or support. I would check prior to buying. Some manufacturers may rotate out much older software they no longer support.
