How is it connected to the PC today, with a direct ethernet cable ?
Yep it's a crossover cable
And the printer is a canon IR 2800
printserver? Don't know, but have to find out.

My dad uses the office Canon IR printer/scaner often. I know that I had to install all the drivers for the scanning (JBig) and the software for general printing.

When I googled your printer I came across this driver sets:

As per connecting the printer to a hub or directly into the PC (crossover).
