Check the Canon support pages for the software if you don't have it. You should be able to dl it and install.

Looks like you're out of luck with LiDE 30. I've got it's big brother the LiDE 80 and it's also not supported. I'm okay for now with my current iMac, but when I upgrade to a new Mac, I'm looking at getting an all-in-one printer/scanner to kill two birds with one stone as my current printer an HP LaserJet 4M won't be compatible either.

Here's the bad news from the Canon website:
