One of my users has one of these massive printers, he's using it with USB as he's on a laptop and only uses mobile broadband.

He wants to be able to scan from the printer to his laptop, which should be easy.

However he's on a netbook with Win 7 Pro and the EasyOperator software that comes with on CD with the printer refuses to install in Win7. I've tried the compatibility function of Win7 to make the install believe it's installing on Xp (I've even tried it as win2000) but the installer still says wrong version of windows.

I've been to the Fuji site (both NZ and US) and only drivers are available, no software downloads to fix this that I could see.

Any other ideas? I am getting a bit stumped on this one.

1206291 2011-06-02 02:27:00 You're only asking for software. Doesnt mean you need a contract Speedy Gonzales (78)
1206292 2011-06-02 02:39:00 Have asked, they say not on contract, see you later. FAB (6923)
1206293 2011-06-02 02:45:00 Here (onlinesupport.fujixerox.com), it doesnt provide Win 7 drivers and software so the best option is to use the Vista software and pray that it works.


On second look, that may not help as it only provides printer drivers and not scan software.

That's the problem> Weird as every other printer manufacturer I can think of supply links to download apps for their printers, as well as the drivers.

1206297 2011-06-02 03:16:00 That seems weird as the machine comes with the FJ Network Mailbox util (or whatever it's called) which is for receiving scans from the machine but only if it's setup on a network - but that page doesn't mention that. FAB (6923)
