The dell 922 uses the same driver as the 924. There is not a compatible Windows 7 driver available yet, but if you are using Vista or XP you can download the driver at

My dell 922 aio was functioning properly when I had windows XP, now that I have Vista, only the printer portion will work and not the scanner or fax. Do I need updated drivers?

Yes,

Here is the web page to download:

Dell 922 Vista

I would Save the files to your computer and install them from there and not Run them from the download page.

Thanks for using Fixya.

NOTE: Uninstall the previous software before installing the new driver.

Printer (922) won't install on new laptop

If your laptop is running Vista and your old desktop was running XP and the disk you got with your printer had drivers that worked with XP and Vista is not listed on them, it would be a case of incompatibility. You would need to go to the Dell website to download updated drivers for Vista if they are not of the standard Vista driver package. (The driver model changed between XP and Vista making XP drivers incompatible with Vista.)

Want to share 922all in one on xp desktop with laptop using Vista

I have a network running both an XP computer & a Vista computer. What I had to do after connecting them both to the router was make an internet connection with 1 computer, turn on the printer so everything the network was going to share was powered on; then run the network wizard on both computers. Once I did this the computer that the printer is not physically connected to installed the printer driver. Once this entire process was completed we had internet on both computers as well as both computers being able to send jobs to the same printer. Has worked great for over a year. Hope this helps you out.

Dell 922 Printer

You will have to use the New Dell 922 VISTA drivers and not the XP drivers in order for it to work with your Vista Loaded PC. The new drivers for the 922 under Vista are available for download at Dells website. Check out this link http://support.euro.dell.com/support/topics/topic.aspx/emea/shared/support/dsn/en/document?c=ed&docid=314972&l=en&s=bsd Hope this helps.
