FAQs & Troubleshooting

PaperPort® is installed on my computer, however there are no PaperPort® print drivers installed.  What can I do?

PaperPort® installs a "PaperPort Black & White Image" driver and a "PaperPort Color Image" driver. These drivers allow you to import documents onto the PaperPort® desktop via the print feature.

Printers and Faxes
