you can download drivers at http://global.dymo.com/enGB/Software/DiscPainter.html but honestly its not worth it anymore. they don't appear to be supporting it much and the ink price is too expensive. My advice is invest in an epson artisan 50. does the same job even better and photo disk come out looking like masters. Uses the same disk. For non inkjet printers you can get any Disc Title Printer ..casio has some nice cheep ones. The dymo sadly is out dated..mine has been in a corner for years now.

You can try to download it. If it doesn't you can in the control panel switch the window version to an earlier version of window. I know for a fact that the software is compatible with most window version up from windows xp

I'm not sure. But I can tell you abode software is very out of date. I'm only able to save as an image. I can save as a .pdf but Windows 7 doesn't recognize it.

We use Print Shop 20 for this. We use it also for educational purposes at school. It is user friendly. It does not merge with Word.

A more recent version of OpenOffice might work better. Not sure whether ASUS's repositories offer a more up to date version, though. While OO does a good job dealing with word and powerpoint files in general, compatibility won't be 100%. The word and powerpoint formats are proprietary and closed, OO's ability to read/write those formats is based on guess and reverse engineering. That said, you could try the following workaround: upload the document to docs.google.com (apply for a google account if you don't have one yet) and work the forms online. You can download them back to your computer when finished. Another alternative is to use a "windows emulator" such as Crossover to run MS office under Linux.

I used it before on XP and 2000. Now on Vista Home Basic, I am having problems - it does not support scan to PDF and HP support is useless to troubleshoot.

It is supposed to work with Windows 8.1 and that's what I have on my computer. I just couldn't get this version of Print Shop to do anything for me. I don't think it was the operating system but rather the software. It is horrible, they removed many of the options that the older version Print Shop had. I was so disappointed in it that I don't even try to use it anymore. I managed to get my old version downloaded onto the 8.1 and I am happier with it. I prefer to deal with the occasional glitch from system incompatibility. I really hated the new version of Print Shop and would have returned it if I could have. Print Shop should be ashamed for releasing that version.

James, I believe that Encore's The Print Shop is the biggest piece of garbage ever issued. It was almost totally unusable, and could not do any of the tasks that the earlier versions did so easily. We returned it, and kept the old computer and printer to run it and keep my wife sane. DO NOT BUY IT!!!!! It doesn't work well with ANY system.

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.

Since I really dislike the printshop 3.0 I haven't really looked into buying another version. The old version I had (I think it was 6.0 but back in the 90's and it was GREAT but not compatible with my newer computer). 3.0 is a big waste of money as you can see from the reviews.

I am returning my copy. It works with Windows 7 but no single project can be more than 20mg. It has great features but crashes and you cannot retrieve what you have created. It is a known defect, they told me they are working on it! They told me to try Print Shop 23.

For just printing- You do not need any other software, although it does have Operating System Requirements, I believe. I use Excel and Acrobat Distiller. You have 2 options for printing and saving. When you select CREATE REPORT from the report section, it generates a screen view, that allows for just printing of their screen. It does not allow changes to be made and does not allow you to select a SAVE feature. It provides each employee per page of the report. OR, from that screen you can export into an EXCEL file. The layout changes a little and I prefer the other better. The excel formatting combines all employees, so you would have to adjust it by adding or deleting cells to view just one employee per page. To save in the initial view/format, I choose to select PRINT TO ACROBAT DISTILLER, and then print it to my desktop instead of printing to my printer. Then you are left with one PDF file that contains 1 page per employee. Good Luck! I like the system and it is easy to use, but I have been experiencing some punches disappearing (after I seen them in the system on a prior log in), but I have not contacted anyone on this issue yet.

The only one that I can claim 100% compatibility with is Windows 7. We have yet to migrate our 6 locations over to Windows 8, so I can't answer whether it's compatible with that OS or not. I believe in the next quarter we will be moving everyone over to Windows 8. I can give an update at that point in time. Overall, the printer is a good workhorse and we've had no issues with it. Hope that helps. Dave

Yes, I run my computer with XP. It's running great and I do alot of printing. It's worth it.

You should be able to. I just google it: C7280 Photosmart all in one and a few came up. Open the link and check if that is what you want. There is one there that has a menu for PRINT or you can open the file and click "Save Page As" (google chrome) and I was able to save it in my folder. Good luck. Alice

Sorry I can't help you with your problem. I have never had that problem, but have had many other problems with this program. It maybe your printer settings but I wouldn't be surprised if it is the program itself. I have used the older versions of Printmaster for many years and was very happy with it but since I changed my computer I had to buy one for windows7 and it is the worst I ever had! What a waste of money. Nothing prints out right and it has a very limited selection for cards etc. I would see if it can be returned for something else.
