If you have the printer connected to the computer via USB cable, please follow the steps given below:

1. Click on Start and in start search type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER.

Re: Installing

Hi,

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

Now you have the drivers installed. You can now start reinstalling. During the process of the installation, when you get the connection type, please select USB and the select the check box "will connect the device later" and continue with the installation. That will install the software. Once the software is installed, please restart the computer and you should be able to print and scan.
