C4280 All-in-one Missing Print Settings

[mewdar]

Hi Guys, I really hope you can help with my problem as it is driving me nuts, we have our printer for a few years now and have not had a problem with it, in fact i am still not sure if this is actually going to down the to the printer but we will see, anyway, we have recently purchased a second desktop PC which of course has the OS Windows 7, the primary PC has OS XP this is the PC where the printer is installed to, we created a network for the 2 PC's and a laptop and got everything working fine, that is until a few days ago, I use the new PC as I do a lot of digital crafts and graphic printing for hand made crafts so I regularly change my print settings, what has seemed to have gone is in print preferences the option to print onto card as the Greeting Card/Other Greeting Card option is no longer showing but it does show on the main PC, so why does this option show on one and not the other? and why when it did show before has it disappear??

I am totally confused.

Have you downloaded and installed the Win 7 drivers for your printer?

Which PC does this have to be done on? the main xp pc or the one I am using with W7? as it is already on mine not sure about the other one.

So are you sharing the printer? Is the printer directly connected to the XP PC and you're sharing it on the Win 7 PC?

The printer is directly connected to the XP pc and I share it via a home network, the software for the printer was also installed on the W7 pc as initially I couldn't see the printer without doing so.
