I bought this all in one the other day and the printer works without problems.
Having problems with the scanner though.
When I turn it on I get

Cannot install this hardware
An error occurred during the installation of the device
The required section was not found in the INF.

I've tried using different ports & cables and re-installing

One weird thing I've now found out is that when I goto the scanners & camera
section in control panel, when I select "Add Device" nothing happens.

Anyone out there have a clue?

Thank you

The installation of these "AIO" devices typically require that the Setup
disk is run BEFORE the PC ever sees the the device on the end of the
cable. I suggest you uninstall it in Device Manager, UNplug it from the
PC, and then follow the manufacturers installation instructions step by
step.

Thx for the reply Bob.

I've done everything and I now think it's my installation of XP. I hooked a
new digital camera up and it won't recognize. Still won't allow me to Add new
device under scanners & camera.

I don't wanna re-install XP.
Anyone else have a clue?

Thank you
