At Last.....It Works

We have an all-in -one printer. It prints and is supposed to scan. Back around Thanksgiving, the scan program stopped working. My computer told me that it couldn't communicate with the scanner. I was a little confused by this since the printer worked fine yet. Since there is only one cable that connects the printer to the computer, how could it communicate on one operation and not the other. O.K. we will get a new cable, that should fix things. Wrong! Now that we've been without our scanner for about 2 months it up and decides to work. Just like that, right out of the blue it works. Beats me what was wrong but as long as it is going to work, we'll be glad to use it. I guess these electronic things made by man are a little human after all. Our scanner was on winter vacation!!!! Another human trait this scanner seems to have, GOOD HELP is HARD TO FIND!!!
