Sharp printer scanners

[Peadar B]

I've just purchased a lap-top using Windows 7 64-bit system. I can't get it to communicate with my Sharp AR-M165 scanner / printer, which worked well with my old Windows XP desk-top computer. I downloaded from Sharp website -www.sharp.co.uk -on their recommendation a driver that should have sorted the problem but no luck! I have since been having difficulties following this up with Sharp. Does anyone know of a solution to this problem or indeed if there is a solution?!

You could try using vista drivers as I understand many of them are compatible.
