status monitors and update checkers often run at startup. u can disable them in Task Manager > Startup apps if you install the full suite but dont want the background load.

  1. im literally losing my mind here i'm setting up a all-in-one printer and teh Canon download page offers a huge full software package plus a smaller basic PIXMA MP190 Printer Drivers. i only need just printing. Is there a reaosn to install teh full suite, or does the basic driver cover everything? i've had printer software slow down PCs beofre, so i'm wary of installing more than i need. Curious what you'd pick. pls help 馃檹

  2. ok but do you need scanning, or only printing? ??

    nothing is more permanent than a temporary workaround

  3. For offices, teh basic driver plus a standard TCP/IP port is usually the most stable setup. Fewer moving parts, fewer surprises.
