I'm sure the link posted earlier in this thread worked at one time, but Polaroid changed the software page, which is now here:http://www.polaroid.com/mobile-applications/gl10-appsHow long this link will work is anyone's guess. It's pretty amazing, in a WTF (Worse Than Failure) way, that Polaroid decided to go against the expected behavior of EVERY web site on the planet that sells electronics. It's the ONLY web site I've ever seen that does NOT have a link to software / driver for their product right on the product page itself.

The "app" that's available for downloading only lets you print through the app i.e. you cannot use the printer with other applications such as iPhoto or Aperture. This is incredibly limiting and I wouldn't recommend buying the GL10 until this is fixed.

This isn't true. I just recieved the printer - immediately sent an image to the printer via bluetooth without installing anything. This printed perfectly. Further, you can print directly from most cameras using pictbridge. I don't think polaroid can be blamed for Apple's failure to enable bluetooth printing.

I installed the Polaroid GL10 Win 64-bit application and Microsoft Security Essentials detected (Tool:Win32/Cmdow) and removed a virus.Has anyone else had this situation?

You have to go to, http://www.polaroid.com/en/greylabel and drag the large gray slider bar at the bottom of the page about half way to the right. There you will find links to the Android App, Mac, 32bit and 64bit Windows versions.

Thanks for the info. I have installed the app, but the driver included for the GL10 doesn't install on a Windows 7 machine. Do you have a different experience?

There's a Mac application: http://www.polaroid.com/en/greylabel#/module-1008

I simply connected the printer to my Win7 computer and allowed Windows to do the rest. It automatically installed it. Then, I went to the HP support website and downloaded the Win7 compatible firmware/software. Installed it and it was done. I had full use of all of the features. However, if you haven't already bought one, I advise against buying this particular model. My extensive review is on Amazon here.

Well, I downloaded a new driver, and that solved the 6c10 error message -- for a week or so. And now it's back again. And now my older Canon pixma 3000 has a similar error message. So I have two Canon printers taking up space. Does anyone make a decent, reliable printer? Canon has been absolutely of no help.

Yes it works with windows 7, when the printer worked. I agree with R. Jacobs, don't get this printer. My HP 6700 died after 1 year with a print head failure and HP was no help. I have had a Canon MX922 for 5-6 months now, and so far no problems.

I just got a new computer with windows 8 and the printer worked without installing any drivers. I only used the printing function so am not sure if everything else would work or not.

Unfortunately - as per the other response - mine also ended up in the trash. But more for reasons of problems with the downloaded driver and conflicts with the operating system. Over time the printing speed became worse and worse, and no matter how many times I deleted and re-installed drivers, there was always a conflict. Spent way to many hours trying to problem solve and finally lost patience - trash.

Two PC's and this model Photosmart. It will not scan from the printer and refers to the computer. The computer pops up with a Destination Component problem, will not scan and asks to have the printer reinstalled;done with no effect. Some esoteric remedies on the internet which I may try. Conclusion: not worth the hassle. UPDATE: I borrowed this solution from another blog and it worked for me. Since I am a novice, I am not sure which problems it will solve: Tried to go into the log file, but said access is denied. So, tried making a new admin account through Start -&gt; Control Panel -&gt; User Accounts -&gt; Manage Accounts -&gt; Create New Account. This was done in classic view of control panel. Made the account, logged onto it, tried to scan and it worked fine.

Hi. I used a disk to download the drivers (we were replacing an older printer). You will have to look on the internet to find a place to download. Type into the search engine something like "I need to download drivers for HP 5150 Color Inkjet printer." It's not much to offer, I know, but these are the only options I am aware of. Best to you and Happy Holidays.

The Pogo doesn't work with my Nokia Lumia 1020 Windowsphone (running Windows Phone 8.1 the "cyan update") and the Googling I've done seems to confirm it won't work. I've also tried the "Pogo Printer" app in the Windows Store and no joy. But I was able to bluetooth a photo to a compatible Android device and then print from the Android device. So that's one possible work around if you are a 'multi-device' house hold!

Just received the MX860 printer and have to install on a new Windows 7 machine. Anyone who has installed this printer on a Windows 7 machine and can provide details of how they did it would be appreciated. I have downloaded all the Windows 7 drivers/software to a thumbdrive. What next? Thanks in advance.

Nope. The printer is great. Only issue we had was with the PCL6 drivers and Microsoft Word. It rotated landscape pages the wrong way. Using the PCL5 drivers solved that.

Hi, Anybody have trouble with the software aspect? I am running into trouble with the driver intalls, in particular the DLLs, and the worst is driver CNMBR333, even with the updated drivers. I already email tech suppport and they responded quickly but their solution didnt work. I wont hear again till tommorow but since so many others here are enthused about what is definitley a quality printer that even make standard paper printouts seem like photo paper, I though maybe someone with a bit more experience with install issues might be able to help.Thank You Regardless

Neither Canon nor HP (the vendor of my new PC) was able to get the MG4220 to work with Windows 8. I wasted ~3 hours with customer support, both emails and phone calls. The Win 8 drivers from Canon didn't work for printing, but did work for scanning!Printer works great on my MacBook, however; total setup time: 3 minutes.

I have a Dell with Windows 7. I plugged the Printer into my Computer and it only "partially" loaded the Driver. So I initially couldn't use Windows 7 Print/Scan software as plug and play. You simply load in the provided Canon CD (I installed everything and later on uninstalled programs I didn't want) Now everything works great including Windows 7 Print/Scan software too.

Because it works perfectly with Polar products and Windows 7. I bought one, and it functions seamlessly. The Polar product is more expensive, and is reported to have problems with Windows 7 compatibility. I highly recommend this product for use with Polar products, and I'm really happy with how well it works with my Polar S610i watch.

Did you ever find out if it would load on Windows 7. I have an Epson Perfection 2450 and upgrade to Win7 and I cannot get it to work. Loved the scanner.
