I got a new Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 for Christmas. I still have and use my Dell XPS 410. I want to get my Dell A960 all-in-one to work on my Toshiba and not end up making some kind of mess on my new laptop.
I went to the Dell page for drivers but it says to choose your operating system and Windows 7 is not there. I also read a post from someone who asks if Dell is going to supply new drivers or if we just have to throw our printer away.
I love this printer and it works like a charm. Can someone in the know help me to get it installed on this laptop? Please...
The driver for Windows 7 for Dell A960 All-in-one printer is not available. You may try to install the driver for Windows Vista from the following link ftp.us.dell.com/printer/R153052.exe .
If it does not work, you may try to install the driver in compatibility mode. It might work.
Download the driver from the following link mentioned above
Right Click the driver installation file and select Properties -- > Compatibility Tab.
Select Windows Vista from the list in the following image
Click Apply -- > OK
Right Click the file and select the 'Run As Administrator' to install the driver
Thank you for the response. Looks like there is some issue with the page. You may try to download the following file. Once you've downloaded the driver, try to install it normally. In case it doesn't work, try to install in compatibility mode.

If you have a 64 bit computer, then you would need to download and install 64 bit drivers and vice-versa.
