It just started from a few weeks ago in my old PC and the first day I installed the driver on my new laptop, my printer software doesn't works. Although I can still print and copy, scan and other functions won't work any more. I tried to run it again but it won't do anything. Can somebody help me to find the solutions? Thank You
