Eric_M Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 drivers are the software on your laptop. I would go into printers, via the control panel, and uninstall that printer driver. Then restart your PC, it should find it and reinstall the driver automaticly. I'm not a pro at computers, but know enough to be dangerous. Worse case it doesn't work, still. Then , I like printer vs. wall! Good luck, hope ithis helps.....Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
