Is this scanner combatible with Windows 8?

I have windows 7, but this scanner uses an SD card. picture scans directly to the sd card. so if your computer takes an SD card, I would say its compatible.

Yes. I've been using on the scanner on Windows 8.1 for 6 months, and I've encountered no problems to date.

The short answer is, SOMETIMES. It's a very touchy program with Windows 8. Very frustrating when it doesn't always work properly. I often regret having wasted my money on it.

Yes, but the CD is only compatible with Windows. The Scanner is a plug and play device for both Window and Mac though.

There is a workaround for x64 but it is not really functional. The driver will barely drive the scanner but cardscan.net and the cardscan software will not work with Win 7 X64 also.I am looking for a new scanner/management system.

Hi as far as I know ///Yes it is! I now have windows 7!!! I'm not going up to windows 8 ( No Way)!!! You have to be carful what printers & scanners you now have before you jump up to a newer device! Because if you don't then you'll be buying all new devices that well work with what you are running on your computer! I found out the hard way when I jumped from Windows 95 to Windows 7!!! I hope this helps you out! But the best way to check a device out is to call up the companies! Lloyd PS: I do love my printer!!!It's so very easy to use!!!

Although I'm not using Windows 8, it works fine on WindowsXP and Windows 7. Can't imagine why it won't run on Win8. As a sidebar, of the 20 or so scanners we've used, this is by far the best. The software provided is also excellent.

Yes I installed this scanner on a PC/Microsoft for my mother, it works as well as on a Mac.

Nope. I've used this scanner with Windows 7, Windows 8 after upgrade from 7, MS Surface with Windows 8 and MacBook Air. All work well. No problems at all. I love my Scansnap.

Actually it can. If you have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate, you can use Windows XP mode and scan away. I'm doing it right now! I've had mine for years, never had to call for support, so I can't vouch for that, but I've scanned hundreds of photos and I'm very happy with it.

I "use" mine with Windows 7 Ultimate. The software is terrible. I have owned 2 previous HP and EPSON scanners that worked well until they quit. This Mustek A3 2400S scanner is awful. Everything from the software to the misaligned scanning makes buying this scanner a poor buy. AVOID IT

I ran this scanner hardcore for many hours on Win7 (64-bit) with absolutely no problems at all

Couldn't tell you as I have windows 7. It has NEVER let me down. The scanner is still flawless & this thing prints like a champ. It's slow. But that's the ONLY down side. It prints on one side only.

I am sorry to say ,I am not sure ... I have been away from the work for awhile , and have not had a chance to try it with windows 8.

No I don't believe so. In my opinion, this is a pretty basic scanner. Worth the money but needs more features.

I don't use Win 8 yet, but according to the HP web site there is an existing driver for Windows 8 32 and 64 bit versions. We use this scanner on Windows XP 32 bit and Windows 7 64 bit Professional without problems. I'd be confident in the new driver. On the scanner interface side, it was poorly done when we purchase the scanner in 2011. For a more advanced professional user interface, we use VueScan on both platforms but you need to know what you are doing. The HP driver is needed for VueScan to work.
