Thanks.  I got a reply from Canon by e-mail that said we don't have any 
OS/2 software.  Well, I pulled the CANONOS2.EXE file off their website 
just to try it. ( guess they didn't check the web site ).  While there 
I checked out the FAQes.  There was a question on NT and they told the 
person to select the 4000 or 4100 as the driver and use the fax as stand 
alone.  That works here also.  So at least I have a BJ4xxx color inkjet 
printer and a stand alone plain paper fax and copier.  Would be nice to 
get the scanner going under OS/2, but I figure at the price I paid for 
this thing, I'm already ahead of the game.  :)
