Hi, you don't need any driver to scan from the MP 171, unless you are doing TWAIN scanning, in which case you will need the TWAIN driver. You can download the TWAIN driver here:

http://support.ricoh.com/bb/html/dr_ut_e/re/model/mp171/mp171sp.htm

If you are scanning to email or scanning to a folder on your computer, you won't need any additional software to do either of those. Instructions for setting up both of those can be found here:
