re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE Saturday, April 26, 2003 at 9:57 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rod Garnes (1 messages posted) I don't know if this will work with your machine, but give this a shot. I just got my IBM Scanner to work after a year of futzing around and searching the world and using expertise. Found a file called rscan95106.exe for a different scanner and gave it a shot. Of course, it didn't work. However, in the readme.txt file, there was a little one line blurb that said, "set the BIOS for the LPT port you are using to EPP only mode." Aaaaaaargh! Mine had been set to EPP & ECP mode option. Changed it to EPP only and the thing magically started working. Try setting your LPT port to EPP only and see if that helps... > On Wednesday, January 15, 2003 at 7:35 pm, Niistoo wrote: >Thank you all for your responses! > Written in response to: re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Niistoo: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 at 7:35 pm) Responses to this message: re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Gerald K Madonia: Thursday, May 18, 2006 at 8:31 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Niistoo: Mon, Jan 13, 2003, 7:54 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Steve: Mon, Jan 13, 2003, 9:39 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Hagens: Wed, Apr 9, 2003, 12:47 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Skuller: Thu, Jul 31, 2003, 10:23 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Tom Swanson: Mon, Jan 13, 2003, 10:29 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Bob Harris: Tue, Jan 14, 2003, 7:17 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Niistoo: Wed, Jan 15, 2003, 7:35 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Rod Garnes: Sat, Apr 26, 2003, 9:57 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Gerald K Madonia: Thu, May 18, 2006, 8:31 pm) re Scanner driver disappears after installing windows xp (middleton: Thu, May 8, 2003, 3:21 am) re: re Scanner driver disappears after installing windows xp (Argh: Wed, May 28, 2003, 8:28 am) Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP (Dale Wright: Tue, Nov 18, 2003, 12:52 pm) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP (Roger: Fri, Apr 30, 2004, 6:06 am) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP with the help of parallel port converted to usb (faiq: Fri, Mar 7, 2008, 9:27 am) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP with the help of parallel port converted to usb (Avly: Wed, Jul 16, 2008, 12:07 pm) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP (Kita: Mon, May 17, 2004, 2:08 am) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP (David Hoover: Wed, Nov 10, 2004, 9:30 pm) re: Making Acer Parallel port scanners work in Windows XP (Tony: Fri, Nov 26, 2004, 5:41 pm) re: re Scanner driver disappears after installing windows xp (CHRISTINE: Mon, Apr 25, 2005, 4:41 am) re: re Scanner driver disappears after installing windows xp (frances: Tue, Oct 25, 2005, 11:05 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Theo Hofman: Mon, Oct 20, 2003, 12:46 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Sali: Mon, Apr 12, 2004, 4:30 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Annuska Joosten: Tue, Jan 11, 2005, 5:01 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Vicki Tuttle: Wed, Jan 21, 2004, 9:29 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Andy: Sat, Feb 14, 2004, 4:09 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (Prateek: Fri, Oct 8, 2004, 1:21 pm) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (mrpaara: Thu, Sep 22, 2005, 6:42 am) re: Scanner driver disappears after installing in XP HE (FireWorks: Fri, Sep 30, 2005, 7:53 pm) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows XP Discussion Forum
