Before making any changes to your system, create a Restore Point

(How to) Create Restore Point

 

Stop all programs:  Browsers, games, Applications, etc.

 

Control Panel > icon view > System > System Protection

Click (Highlight) your main disk (C) > Select Create a Restore Point

 

 

Next:

  • If using a USB cable between the printer and the computer, disconnect the USB cable
  • Uninstall the existing printer software from Control Panel > icon view >Programs and Features
  • Restart the computer and log in
  • Navigate to the (Downloads) folder in which you saved the full feature software installation file
  • Double-click on the file to initiate the install procedure -- follow instructions
  • If using a USB cable, connect the cable only when instructed (latter part of the installation)
