I’ve been trying to get our old Visioneer 7600 to work and have lost the CD. Thank goodness for “dll-files.com”:http://dll-files.com or “downloadthis.com”:http://www.downloadthis.net/dllfiles.html they actually have all these random DLLS that various folks spill everywhere.
The required files that are needed are:
* maxkrnl.dll
* www.dll-files.com – download maxcodec.dll is a good example. Used by PaperPort 6.1.
* maxutil.dll
* pperr.dll
* maxrast.dll
Well, now it says it can’t find the device and connect. Arrrghh.

You are right. A great scanner is now $90 as show in popphoto.com. I guess I’m too cheap to get a new one, but I should. The prices have really fallen and we need one.
I just picked up one of these 7600 USB models secondhand and cannot get XP to install. I have the CD, it quits and asks for another scanner. Is there a driver download to fix this?
You are a lifesaver Rich. Thought I had lost my Visioneer OneTouch scanner when I migrated from Win98 to XP. Thanks to your posting, I followed your instructions to load maxkrnl.dll and the others and was able to install the darned scanner.
Now the only thing left is the printer. XP will not install the USB driver for my Epson Stylus 580. XP install in on parallel port while the printer is USB. XP does find a USB printer and starts to install the USB driver and stops!!!!!!!!!!!1
I ve got this 7600 scanner too. and I dont have the cd. Could somebody send me the folder called SCANSOFT or VISION from 7600 CD. this is the only way to install it. I need nothing else
thanks Bill

I’ve got the 7600 CD… if will you tell me how use this thing… all my scans are a “.max” extension…
I would like them to be a bmp or jpg extension… do you know how to do that? I call Visioneer “no help desk” and they charged me 2 dollars a minute for knothing…(can’t wait to see my phone bill) arggg… LOL … boy that’s the last time I ever buy a product from them… anyway wanna trade?
R U using XP? I have the cd for 9x. Let me know what files you need?
They are in dllfiles.com. Look there and do a search for the specific names
where did you put those .dll files it was asking for? i’m having the same problem. any ideas why?
thanks!
You’re right, but I’m such a nerd, I just can’t stand the idea of throwing something away that works. 3 hours of my time certainly isn’t worth it, but heck, I got it to work 🙂
dude, scanners are so cheap now, just buy a new one. your time is worth more than the savings of trying to make the old thing work.
