reinstall microsoft document image writer

[Guest]

The microsoft document image writer was deleted by a user. I ran a
repair/reinstall and the printer is still not there. I can not find drivers
for it either. How do I reinstall the printer?

Sorry. This is a newsgroup dedicated to questions about Access, a
Microsoft database program. It appears your question may not be related to
these subjects. The Microsoft help system is not all that clear and may have
misdirected you here.

It is best to ask your questions in a newsgroup dedicated to the
subject of your question. You should find people better able to address
your problem there.

Note: It is always best to indicate the name and version of any
program(s) you may be using when asking a question and also indicate the
operating system (like Windows XP or 98) when you ask a question.

microsoft document imaging is a total POS you should use the snapshot viewer
instead

I have luck doing the following:

1. Go to Control panel – Printer and fax
2. Add Printer – select local printer attached (Microsoft won't find
one but click thru to locate one manually.)
3. In the port option select Microsoft Document Image printer writer port
4. Select and install a generic manufacturer and use text only printer.
5. Right-click on the generic text/only printer driver and select
properties.
6. Click on ports and select "Microsoft office document imaging driver
port".
7. Click on the advanced tab and change the driver to Microsoft office
document image writer.
8. Click on apply and OK.

Good luck
