Hi all,

Not a problem as such, but the user software is really basic. It's like I've gone back to windows 8!

It won't remember any saved settings. It shows that they're favourites, but they aren't there the next time I use the printer.

The print quality is excellent, but this awful flippin' software is driving me nuts.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
