You are probably going to find that it´s a really BIG problem getting a CanoScan N670U working.
I have a N670U, which is almost the same, and I cannot get it working on W7.
I have searched a lot and I´m not the only one having problems...
Canon´s support is almost non-existing....
There are drivers but they are said to only work on Windows XP....

So if you should find a solution please let me know !

Installing XP in a virtual machine and using the XP drivers for the scanner on this virtual machine is in fact one viable solution but only if VirtualBox is used as far as free virtual machines.

It would be nice if you could use XP Mode to do this but it will not install within Win 8/8.1. VirtualBox has the advantage in that it supports USB.

All the above said I would not bother unless money is really tight. Buy a more current scanner.
