I didn't have any problem using the scanner with 'mirascan' driver for a long time. yesterday I connected the scanner, the system recognized him as a scanner but where I tried to open mirascan, it showed this error: scanner not found.
I tried to reinstall the driver but it didn't help
-   MiraScan 3300U scanner, v4.01 driver loaded from CD, scanner not found error. it will work if i specify to use the XP default settings for a flatbed scanner but then it only scans to the B5 limt, not the whole A4 size.... i suppose B5 is better than nothing!
