likefishing,

 

Follow the instructions below and then let me know what happens. Using the patch is a MUST on Vista machines.

 

Go to Windows Updates and get all the latest Updates, especially net framework(custom update). Net framework is needed for most applications to run. Also make sure to have the latest Java.

 

Restart your computer. Now follow the instructions below.

 

Disconnect your printer. Download and run this patch to completely remove the printer from your computer. Run the patch until it prompts you to restart your computer.

 

Restart your computer.

 

Download the proper drivers.

 

XP Drivers

 

Vista 32-bit Drivers

 

Vista 64-bit drivers

 

All other drivers

 

Install the proper drivers. You'll be prompted when to connect your printer(powered on)

 

Scanning

 

Scanning using USB connection, open the Dell All-In-One Center, click on scanning and copying and scan from there.

 

Scanning wirelessly, use the scan buttons on the printer.
