Question about Microtek ScanMaker 9800XL Flatbed Scanner

2 Answers

"Scanner not found" message

Tried to use the scanner and am unable to do so. Have no idea why the computer cannot find the scanner. Machine starts up fine and seems ready to go. I removed the scanner from the hardware list, uninstalled it and then re-installed it to no avail.

I have found a support site for your scanner that may be of some help... Please check your ports are compatible.. as far as speed and type. Have you installed the MOST up to date drivers etc? Check all cables etc. support.microtek.com/product_dtl_2.phtml?prod_id=22

Unable to scan on HP Laserjet 3055 on Windows XP
Sounds like a software issue - U might try contacting HP but do not hold your breath. If machine is out of warranty they want nothing to do with you and will refer you to some forum or whatever. Or they might tell you to get a new scanner compatible with a newer OS.

Kyocera 5035 prints only when restarted!
I had the same problem. I would turn the machine off/on and it would work for another 5min. I tried everything I could. I swapped with another machine and it still screwed up, so I knew it had to be the card.
I wound up buying a used card from Greater Phildelphia.
They sell from machines that come off lease. 215-788-7111

Error message
Hi toolpusher

Try going to CanoScan Toolbox > Settings and reset the 'defaults' button at bottom... this will restore factory settings and hopefully fix your problem... The other error message you can expect to get is "unable to scan - insufficent memory, check your **** space' (or something similar)... same fix works for both! ...Have had both messages on mine, sounds like a semi-regular conflict on some sort, but seems to be easily fixed. Good luck :-)

Scanner has stopped working
When I had the cable that came with the printer connected to the scanner, and the cable that came with the scanner connected to the printer, the scanner didn't work.

Changing the cables changed everything.
