Hi!

It tell you to make some space on the HDD (har disk) on you computer/laptop. That means that the disk you havre is almost full and when your MP160 trying to make a temporary file during it works there aren spece enough on the disk for that.

Try to remove/uninstll programs you dont use, uninstall games you dont play, if you have a lots of music, photos, movies etc try to burn them on a disk and the delete the files on your comouter. That will solve your problem.

Good luck to you

Nic

Your hard drive. The scanner uses space on your hard drive. Do a clean disk and remove any files that you don't need. YOu probably need at least 100 mb free for the scanner

- Create a folder for your temporary files, and then configure the scanner to use the folder you created for temp files
