Question on driver for Canon printer (BJC-620)

I bought this printer for a buck at a garage sale. They claimed it worked, but had no ink. I paid around twelve dollars for the ink cartridges on ebay, but forgot to check first to see if Canon had a driver for xp. They don't. However, when I go to microsoft's printer support page, I find that printer listed as one that there are drivers for in xp. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=293360

The question is--should I assume Microsoft is correct, or assume that my printer won't work and just get rid of it?

I would go with the Win98 drivers they have listed on Canon's website. If microsoft has drivers for XP, try them first. The worst that can happen is that it won't work.
