HP PSC 2355 all-in-one - drivers

Hello, not sure if I'm here in the correct disscussion group, but I'll give
it a go.

I installed this printer HP PSC 2355 all-in-one on my Windows Vista Home
Premium.

This was installed from a downloaded program sent to me via HP. I saved it
on my PC, and installed it correctly. All works really fine, except.....,
after I ran ISysCleaner and restart my pc, it seems that my computer needs to
search for the all the drivers for this printer in the folders. It seems that
somehow Windows Vista does not keep the installed drivers linked to the
Printer Program. Is this normal?

Please, can anyone help me on this and inform me:

1. if it is possible that windows keeps all the drivers, even after running
a cleaning program such as ISysCleaner? Or how to prvent this from happening
again.

2. Shoud drivers dissapear after running ISysCleaner?

Thank you for taking a look at this!

Best,
Erik

Hi Erik,

The best advice about so-called cleaning programs is DO NOT USE THEM. This
applies to registry as well as file cleaners. To clean files, use Vista's
built-in program, 'Disk Cleanup'. Steer well clear of registry cleaners.
Superfluous entries in the registry are simply ignored. To fix your problem,
you will need to reinstall your printer drivers. It might be a good idea to
perform a system restore to a time BEFORE you ran ISysCleaner prior to
reinstalling the drivers. Disconnect your printer before reinstalling the
drivers. Follow the instructions carefully and don't connect your printer
until told to do so by the installation program.
