Thanks Rolfus,
I must be weird but I prefer 8.1 to 8 but I am a long term XP user and new to all the apps and touch screen. I rarely work in the apps, only the desktop and i find that my choice of options is much better in 8.1's desktop. I also cannot find all the tool in the apps, certainly the slide up bar is rather limited if you compare it to what is available in the desktop toolbars. I really struggled until I upgraded to 8.1
My workaround is to send all my printing to someone else's computer in the home and then print from there. Time consuming as I do most of the admin and run small home business from new desktop with fast upgraded graphic card but have to use cheap child's laptop to print.
Have you noticed that the Brother website does not need a forum for users to solve all their own problems?
