canon lide 210 scanner stopped working

decfin — Wed, 17 Jan 2024 11:32:29 GMT

scanner stopped working on my PC using Windows 11 (64 bit).

I checked to reinstall but support page shows no Win 11 drivers available as 210 scanner has been retired. I tried the suggested workaround, deleting scanner, loading drivers for W10 by changing the Operating system. reinstalled scanner, rebooted PC and it worked, but only once, next time I tried to use the scan failed with error message ;'Cannot communicate with scanner' error code 2, 155, 86. The PC is communicating with the scanner as it pinged when I connected and I can hear the scanner bar repositioning when I reconnected it and each time I try to scan.

I don't quite understand how it was working for about 3 months on the PCa, then stopped and why it worked once when I reinstalled but then stopped.

any suggestions or is it time to upgrade to Lide 300 or 400
