I had the same problem. I tried to install my new HP Photosmart 8550 printer onto my HP desktop, I am running on Vista 64 bit. Kept getting fatal error MSI.dot4wrp40 over and over again. Upset that my Windows installer was corrupted. I search the internet for this error and realized that this only comes up with NEW HP Printers and scanners. I went to Epson's website and downloaded a driver for one of their photo printers and downloaded the driver for the Epson Stylus Photo1400 Vista 64 bit driver, and guess what it installed I went and bought this printer and I am up and running again. Sorry HP I am jumping ship. The week before I tired to install this HP printer, I installed Print Shop Pro Publisher 23, Blackberry desktop, and Canon digital utilities which in fact all use Window Installer. All installed with no problem, and they are all working. I believe this error message has to be a conflict between HP and Microsoft's 64 bit OS only.... Google THIS ERROR and you will notice only HP comes up.

First you have to download and install scanner drivers, then your system will know it has a HP scanner attached.
Go to HP.com website, choose support and drivers, enter your model and choose a driver for your operating system. Download and run the downloaded file to install the driver, and plug the scanner in when asked to by the installer.

Windows Vista provides a basic set of scanning drivers, also referred to as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) drivers, that you can use as an alternative to scan a document when you cannot scan using the HP drivers.You can still scan with one of the following methods:

dan123 sent me this link for the hp3500c driver (actually more than just a driver).

. I am also running 10.5.5 and it works. It is a dmg file, so it's easy to install.

Any idea what MSI error message you had? HP has a product page for the PSC 1315. Click here to go to the product page. Once you're on the product page, you can search for MSI and you'll get a number of pages to choose from. You need to know the specific error message to choose the right one. HOWEVER, those errors mostly look like ones you'd see while installing.

If you didn't see those errors when you were installing, you might try to uninstall and reinstall your software/drivers. The drivers HP has for download are newer than the drivers that were on the CD when you bought the printer. The newer drivers are available here.

now how can i installation thqt driver

I had the same problem. I could print, but not scan.

However, if you open up Paint and go to file and scan, it will scan your document. For some reason, using the scan button on the printer itself will not work with Vista, but using Paint will. I also heard that using Windows fax and scan will also work.
good luck

You are having hardware communication problems caused, very likely, by driver installation troubles. Go into CONTROL PANEL and then SYSTEM and then DEVICES and look for the scanner there under IMAGING DEVICES and check to see if it has an exclamation mark next to it, or if any other device has this mark, meaning that drivers are not installed for it. If there is no scanner but you have a warning icon labeled UNKNOWN DEVICE, this is the problem. If you find any non-functioning hardware devices, this is probably it.

Try this as a fix. Unplug the cable to the printer/scanner.

Go online to HP and download the latest drivers and utilities for the scanner/printer and save them to your desktop.

In CONTROL PANEL, open ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS. Scan down and remove (uninstall) anything related to the HP printer or scanner, everything. Then reboot. Then install the drivers and utilities on your desktop you saved previously, plugging in the unit when prompted to do so. If you are never prompted, plug it in at the very end when everything is installed. If this routine fails, try rebooting the system without the HP scanner plugged in, wait for a complete start-up, and then plug the scanner into a different USB port and follow the directions on screen taking note of any failure messages. PS: the scanner/printer needs to be powered on through all of this, of course. :>)

Good luck
