Thank you for your reply. Yes, the other machines are both XP PC's and I
think you have nailed the problem. Other forums suggest I am not alone with
this problem, it seems to occur after installing Office XP, which I gather,
Vista is not too happy with.

As Panasonic do not appear to be releasing the appropriate driver for my
Laser, I am forced to revert back to XP for this computer .

Probably just as well as I am not enjoying the Vista experience anyway.
