  • Answer:

    If your computer uses Windows Vista as the operating system that might be the problem. There doesn't appear to be a valid Windows Vista driver for your multi-function device. If, on the other hand, you are using an earlier version of Windows, you can download the driver, and other material from the site listed below. Edit: Apologies if you're from America. The second link below offers the same advice.
