"Driver alone worked well with XP, however Optis pro does not allow or has not modified their front end software to deal with XP and have been told that they are not planning on doing so. Hence the driver alone allows scanning perfectly with applications like word, excel and Photodraw but nothing else."

"After spending some time, I did get this to work with Photoshop. It shows up as an import source. Sometimes I get the message that there are missing components, but shutting down Photoshop and starting it up again usually solves this. Thanks for the download; I wasn't able to use this scanner for over a year before getting it."

  3. Click the Update Driver button and follow the instructions.

In most cases, you will need to reboot your computer in order for the driver update to take effect.
