Hi,

I have a Samsung scx-3405 multifunction printer.

Just had the latest Windows 10 upgrade.

Printer working fine but when I runnthe Scan Assitant software, cannot do anything - scan,amend changes...

Have tried various drivers but no good..

Anyone have a possible solution to this please?

I'm running Mojave and had the same issue.. I've been wracking my brains for over 6 months with this retched thing. Thankyou to the writer of this post for finding the solution. For Mac download the lastest software drive at 

After installing all the 4 files packaged. When you go into the For Mac: Open the Applications folder > Samsung folder > .I went into scan assistant and it worked. finally.... just make sure you open all the folders in the zip and install all drivers.

This worked for me!  Thank you for providing the link.  I guess in 2020 HP still didn't add it to the SCX-3405W software and drivers as I downloaded everything they had and it still wouldn't work without downloading the Document Creator.

Thanks for the info.  It works great!  Can't seem to find the Document Creator for the 3405 on the HP site.

 Here, mentioned information is perfect to the core. Most of the printers need to install the latest printer drivers. That makes the installation better.

I have a SCX-3405FW multifunction printer.  I lost the function of the scanner because of the Windows 10 upgrade.  Now, I can't use the printer.  I got so frustrated that I removed the printer and tried to add it back and know I'm getting the error "can't install scx-3400 kernel-mode printer drivers because of kernel-mode print driver that is compatible with the version of windows you are running, contact the manufacturer".  I can't find anything on the hp website and a I am soooo frustrated.  Can anyone help me Add my printer?
