HP 3200se laserjet on XP

TimBrown55
I have a new Dell 8200 w/XP, which seems to recognize the printer part of this machine just fine. I've read there is no scanner support in XP, and I can't get a straight answer from HP as to whether their latest disc covers XP.

Epson Perfection 1200u on new XP machine

TimBrown55
I perceive on the Epson web site some doubt about whether the Epson 1200u will work on my new Dell 8200 with XP. I hesitate to install the 14 month old software and then try to download over a phone line.
