Re install Dell 926 printer

uninstall all printer then reinstall and reset the default printer that you want dell printers

Hi,
if you have the users manual (given that it has worked properly in the past) my suggestion would be to disconnect the printer from the computer/uninstall the current software/then with your manual in hand follow the guidance PRECISELY to reinstall the printer. If you do not have the manual it can be obtained (free) from the Dell site. Just before doing the uninstall/reinstall if you haven't already done so you might go to the Dell download site and install the latest drivers for the printer from there.

Hope this helps
Thanks
Dennis

go to the dell website, support and drivers, and you can get the software there by entering your model number

You can download the XP drivers from Dell. Just go to the Dell website, click on the support link, lookup your specific printer, and input the o/s as XP. The software/driver package should appear. Download and install. You should be all set. Hope this helps.

Try removing your 926 icon in Printers and Faxes, disconnect the USB cable, restart your computer, reconnect the USB cable, see the 926 and install the driver again. If scan has never worked, you probably need a different driver.

Hope this helps.

Go to Control Panel, then Programs and Features. Uninstall the Dell printer software.

Then, go to Control Panel, then Device Manager. Locate the printer, right click on it, and select uninstall.

Disconnect the printer from your PC.

Go to the Support section of Dell's web site, download the latest driver for your printer.

Restart your PC.

Install the software. Connect your printer when instructed to, or after the software install has completed.

Let me know if you still have issues :)

Found on another forum. For 926 this worked great.
1. Go to Control Panel - Printers : Delete 926 printer
2. Go to Control Panel - Programs and Features : Uninstall All Dell 926 related software. There should be 3 programs. (When prompted to restart, respond to wait.
3. Rename Folder C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\W32x86 to W32X86OLD
4. Now restart your computer
5. Reinstall 926 Software.
This worked terrific for me.

Go to control panel, scaners and cameras and use that to start the scan

Go to www.dell.com and top right type in 926 printer; it will bring you to the next page, click on the first result: Install Dell 926 All-In-One Priter Drivers. This should help you. Follow all the directions exactly!

***Did you uninstall the first 926 driver before you did anything else. You must uninstall the first driver and install the driver for the second 926 printer.******
