Help Scanner...

[Afflict]

Hey guys I have a hp 1210 all in one printer scanner copier.
Now I have installed it the other day and when I wanted to use it
today it gave me an error saying that I must close all other
software that can be utilising it.

Ok I have no other software using it... anybody ever had this problem?

Don't know exactly but try opening up the task-manager with (ctrl+alt+del) and click on "processes" to check the list if any of them is named something that seems to come from your printer/scanner. If you find a task that is named for example "epson_hp1210" or something similar, then close the task and try again.
