Printer Problem. Help please

[pandora]

I have a new Acer PC running Vista 7. I have tied to load my printer Epson stylus DX 3800 it flashes up incompatible driver. I have searched the net for the correct driver but I am not happy to pay £30. The Epson site wants £12 to speak to a technician. I am not happy. Can anyone help please.

Do you mean Vista or Windows 7 ?

Just do as C P Rayson says.

If its Win7 then you`ll need to check whether its 32 bit or 64 bit to obtain the correct driver & software.

A slight digression but it does concern Windows 7 and a printer albeit a Pixma 210 from Canon. I expected problems when I installed it on my new computer, but things went (from memory) like this. Obsolete driver, searching for updated driver, downloading updated driver, installing updated driver, your printer is now ready for use! Next time if needs be I shall definitely get another Canon printer.
