I have an HP Scanjet 3300c. Since HP stopped supporting this scanner a
couple of years after I purchased it, I have been using the generic
scanner driver on my 32 bit XP computer. This driver was found in the
standard list of scanner drives in my OEM XP system.

How I have a 32 bit tablet, and while I have never been able to find a
64 bit driver to use on Windows 8. the though occurred to me if I could
find that 32 bit generic drive, I possibly could use the scanner on my
32 bit Windows 8 table..

If this is would be possible, where can I find that 32 bit generic XP
driver?

Make and model of the tablet?

I have a HP Stream 7 5701 tablet, and find it has all of the
capabilities of my Windows 8.1 laptop.

The table has Intel® Atom™ Z3735G Quad Core 32 bit Processor with 1GB
DDR3L memory. It has 32gb of on board storage. With the bluetooth I
can easily transfer files between in and my laptop. I can also access
my thumbdrives and the land drives through the LAN.

OS is Windows 8.1 current updates.

Yes I know the 3300c scanner is old but it works perfectly, and I
thought that since Windows 8.1 will run legacy systems (ie XP), that the
Generic XP driver would work on the 32 bit processor of the Tablet.

It goes a against the grain to toss a perfectly good scanner, that is
equal to or better that the current scanners you buy today. If I can
not find drivers to run on the 32bit tablet, I will maintain the XP
machine just to run the scanner.
