OT: Vista Scanner Driver

Recommended Posts

Good morning all

 

I'm desperate, having tried all the normal channels this is my last hope!

 

I know there are a few of you out here who use the HP Scanjet 4670?

My thanks

Just saw your message above yesterday morning!

 

Many thanks for passing it through. I'd almost given up hope but on seeing your message immediately found and bought myself a second new 4670 still in original packing for the future - yes they're still about over this side of the water.
