I've got a HP C4183 All-In-One printer & scanner (part of the C4100 series) that I want to install on a Server 2003 machine. It seems that HP doesn't support this OS for some crazy reason so the software supplied with the printer does not work on Server 2003. I've managed to get the print portion working but I'm having trouble getting the scanner setup.

Are there TWAIN drivers that I can use that will allow me to scan using this scanner? Or is there some other workaround I can try?

I've tried those but I also get the same error about "the parameter is incorrect". Doesn't seem like HP likes Server 2003...

I've tried and it doesn't work. I've got the printer going but can't get the scanner to work.

hi
have you been in touch with HP directly at all?
How about printing from another machine...

by hermanschutte

Yes i've chatted to one of the support people via the support chat functionality on their site. He said that there aren't any drivers for that printer and scanner for Server 2003. I can print from Server 2003, my problem is trying to get the scanner to work. I've not been able to get that right.
