3. Uninstall and reinstall the scanner driver software:
If you are still having driver issues with your scanner after updating the driver software, you may need to uninstall and reinstall the driver software. This will reset the settings of the driver and potentially help to resolve any driver issues that you are having. To do this, look up instructions on how to uninstall and reinstall the scanner driver software specific to your make and model of scanner.
