HP Scanjet 5400c problems
Have you tried both installing the printers XP driver in running it in XP
compatibility mode? "DL" wrote in message ... I dont believe HP has released a Vista driver for this printer. You could try this program, the trial, and see if it works, before you buy http://www.hamrick.com/ "scorpions" wrote in message ... I tried the suggestions given here, but it still won't work! First, while installing the software, I get an error message that on DLL can not be registered. I choose the option Ignore and the installation finishes in a normal way. When starting the program, it starts normally, but gives me the following error message: Sorry, scanner could not be initialized /scanner not found/ I think the main problem is, that the PC can not recognize/install the scanner. When I connect the USB, the PC detects a new hardware, tries to install, searches for drivers in the net, also I have tried pointing to the folder with the HP program - but in the end the new hardware can not be installed. So... what to do, how can I make it run? Thanks! -- scorpions

HP Scanjet 5400c problems
I tried Vuescan but it doesn't work for the 5400c. What can we do? Is it worth sending emails to Hammick asking them to extend their coverage to include 5400c or maybe email HP to get them to support their hardware. I should buy another scanner and give up on this crusade, it won't be HP that's for sure. -- colinsjones
