Have you installed the Office Service Pack? The download link is in the article.

Is your scanner driver current?

Mary,

Thanks for the response.

I have SP3 installed and as far as I know the latest scanner drivers. My IT
guys have checked all this for me and ensured me the software is all ok.
I have also tried to "detect and repair office" through add and remove
programs to see if it solved the problem but to no avail.

Chris.

I really don't know why you are getting this error. I found the following on a
forum.

Shorten the name of your scanner in the control panel to under 26 characters,
for instance if it says Hewlett-Packard Office Jet K80 Scanner, change it to HP
OfficeJet K80 Scanner.

From: Chris. on
I have found a work around. I got onto another laptop in the office that had
the scanner working and copied the folder and all it's contents named "11.0"
from the directory \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\MODI\11.0\MSPSCAN.EXE as in the description from Pavel in the thread
below.

Put it in the right place and my scanner works fine.

Probably won't help everyone, but if you have access to another computer to
copy the files from it seems something on my laptop was missing/corrupt.
Replace that folder and contents and all works fine now, with SP3 installed.

Thanks,

Chris.
