Dear FerRX,

 

The link you referred too seemed not to be a link. At least not in Outlook (problem might be in Outlook, don’t know…).

I however copied and paste the link in my browser that then came up with a site where I could find and download a driver for W11 that is actually working!

The sit is: https://www.freeprintersupport.com/hp-photosmart-c5180-driver-download/

 

So even though I couldn’t directly use your link you helped me out perfectly. Thanks a million!

 

I am running W11 in a sound studio setup with lots of dedicated software and many specific connections but it is funny to discover how a simple task like scanning a file once in a while seems missing more then I could have ever imagined once the function turns out to be obsolete.

 

Sincerely yours,
