Scanner won't work after using printer. Error messages says 'Port may be used by another device'

     jessica.....is this something that has just started ? What kind of connection does the printer and scanner use ie. serial , parallel or USB  and have they both been working ok up until this issue. What operating system are you using?

    let us know

    If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

      jessica......exactly what do you mean they are connected with each other ?

      If the printer is connected to the parallel port on the motherboard ....where does the scanner connect ?
      let us know
