Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. I would recommend you to try the two methods and then, reboot the system to check if the issue is reproduced. When I originally installed my MG printer on my new laptop Windows 8 it appears Window had already found the printer. On install I got the error that the printer driver was in use maybe by another user.

I wasn't able to install all the software and get the menu where you select to scan. It will print ok, but no scanning is possible. When reinstalling I get that error again and even when I un-install and do the install again. I looked in task manager and killed the only print driver task I could find that was running. Any help with this would be appreciated. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
