I have been informed by HP that the scanning function on my HP3050 will not operate on my system (running Windows VISTA on 64-bit machine). Can this possibly be TRUE?

A 64-bit computer has a hardware-imposed limitation; cannot run drivers written for 32-bit operation.

Well, Vista is known for it's scanning and printing issues, especially with Canon and HP. My friend actually sold his LaserJet 'cause it was useless on Vista :( Sorry...

That applies to applications. Drivers must be 64 bit.
