    Hello.

    If you don't have the CD, install the full version of the drivers

      Re.

      So I think this printer is too old for the Windows version.

    Hello,
    There's a simple workaround (that works for me) with an old printer.
    Plug the printer into the computer when it is turned off, then start the computer; Windows should normally install a default driver. In this configuration, you get basic functionalities (for example: no scanning via the blue button on the printer), but there is a workaround to use the scanner through a free photo software.

    PS:
    The printer must be on when Windows starts up and not in sleep mode..
