Scanner Driver Problem - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

The_Dude · 06-19-2003, 07:02 PM

i have a primascan colorado 2400p scanner, and the drivers are fuckin up.

the scanner only scans half the page, if that.

it usually stops before scanning half the page and shows me what i got.

the thing is not moving the whole way.

anway, i thought it'd be the drivers, since they're for win9x and i have xp.

the assholes at the site dont have xp drivers.

so, what should i do??

is there any "generic" ones that might do the job?

remove the software and let XP detect it andsee what happens

The_Dude · 06-20-2003, 05:48 AM

it doesnt detect it at all.

i had it looked up (printer goes thru scanner) all these days and decided to scan something and it didnt have scanner recognized.

Did you try Epson's drivers?

try the driver guide....www.driverguide.com. It's a web site that supposedly catalogues drivers for every piece of hardware they can find.

when it asks you to log in, use the following....

login: drivers
password: all

it can be hit and miss, but it won't hurt to look!
