    Try this:

    1. Turn of UAC.
    2. Turn off anti-virus.
    3. Uninstall printer software and rebooted.
    4. Delete any folders that were to do with printer including downloaded drivers from website.
    5. Insert driver cd that came with the printer, go to computer and right click and choose explore.
    6. Find the setup icon and right click.
    7. Navigate to properties and choose compatability tab.
    8. Tick the box run in compatability mode for and choose windows xp, click apply and ok
    9. Return to your cd drive folder and double click set-up to begin installation.


    After allowing the software to install your printer remember to turn on your anti virus.

    I hope it also works for you as well.
