How do i get a scanjet 5200c to work with windows 7?

I have a Scanjet 5200c that worked well with Windows XP.  When I went to Windows 7, it stopped working.  HP support said they did not support this machine with a driver for Windows 7.  Why not?  How can I get this perfectly good scanner up and running again?

BSLund, welcome to the forum.
I do not work for HP, but I have experience with driver development.  Once printers/scanners get older, it becomes too difficult to continue updating the driver.  There are newer printer/scanners that have to be supported.  Drivers are difficult to develop and maintain.  It is not as simple as going to the code and changing the model or OS version.

  • How can I get my Canon A620 to work with Windows 7

    Just signed up here, ot the brightest with tech stuff. I'm trying to get my Powershot A620 to work with Windows 7. I'm guessing there's drivers I need to down load ? Will they be on the Canon website or on this help site ? 
    I'll keep looking around.

    If you need photo software and don't have any you can download Canon software here.

    But if you already have software you use there is nothing special you need. Ether connect the camera using a USB cable or remove the SD card from the camera and use a card reader (either an external one or the computer may already have one built in.)
    If  you decide to connect the camera via USB you don't need a driver; its built into W7.

  • How can I get Acrobat 7 Pro to work with Windows 8.1 Pro?

    Apparently Acrobat Pro 7 is not compatible with Windows 8.1 Pro X64. I am trying to save a web page to pdf but this feature does not work in Windows 8.1 Pro. Is there a patch or update that will fix this problem?

    It might be possible to get a lot of it working, but you will have to install a separate PS driver and rename it Adobe PDF and set the port to File. The print process is then to print to the Adobe PDF printer and then open the created file in Distiller to complete the process. I have been successful with this on a Win7, 64-bit system, but not tried it on a Win8 system. You are pretty much on your own if problems arise, unless you are willing to try wild suggestions that we might give (guesses really).

  • How do I get iTunes 11.2.2 working with Windows 8.1?

    I have uninstalled and re-installed multiple times and I still get the window that says iTunes.exe- Entry Point not found and won.t execute after install process.  And an additional message pops up that says "not installed correctly"  error 7 (windows error 127) every time.   Does anyone have any tips for resolving the issue?  Are there any fixes?  Please let me know.
    Thank you,

    For MS Visio (any version) only the appropriate version of Acrobat *PRO* provides PDFMaker for Visio.
    For Visio 2013 specifically you must have Acrobat XI Pro (updated to at least 11.0.1).

    After hours restoring phone and resetting all my accounts and settings the Bluetooth is back on. Not sure how long this will last. In regards to AirPlay taking over, I had to drive far enough from our wifi signal to allow the Bluetooth to take back the audio. Its working for now.

  • How do I get my Jawbone Era to work with my Ipad 2

    How do I get my Jawbone Era to work with my Ipad 2?  The Ipad shows the Jawbone as synced, however, when I play a video it does not play through the Jawbone, only the Ipad speaker.

    You need to pair the iPad with the bluetooth keyboard. I don't understand how you could have used it even once without doing this process (unless whoever sold the iPad and keyboard to you did this for you?) but perhaps it has somehow become unpaired. There should be instructions with the bluetooth keyboard on how to pair it with an iOS device like your iPad, but the general process is pretty straightforward as described here:
    iOS: Third-party Bluetooth accessories
    If you can't find the pairing instructions/user guide that came with the keyboard then look on the manufacturer's website, they'll almost certainly have downloadable User Guides containing the info on pairing.

  • Need help getting Adobe OnLocation CS3 to work with windows 7 64 bit. Any ideas?

    Need help getting Adobe OnLocation CS3 to work with windows 7 64 bit.  The program installed ok and the S/N took.
    The program does record video and audio HDV M2T.
    The problem is video doesn't display or play back on the monitor component @ 16:9 or 720 p.  4:3....
    The scopes respond as do the audio components when recording. (with a blank monitor component).
    The video does play back on my system no problem.
    Any ideas?

  • How do I get the new iPod to work with iTunes

    I recently purchased a new iPod--I think it's the "Shuffle," whichever one retails for $150. When I plugged it into my iMac, it said I needed to install iTunes 10 to run it. When I checked for updates, it said that iTunes 9.xyz (whatever came after the 9) was the latest version.
    How do I get this new iPod to work. As you can tell, I am not much of a gadget junkie, and I'm a bit of a technology incompetent, which is why I purchased the Mac to begin with. I have an iMac, have no idea what operating system I am using--whatever came with it when I purchased it in November, 2008.
    TIA!

    Okay, I just looked and I do have 10.411. How do I upgrade to get the new iPod to work, and how much does the new operating system cost?
