I have exactly the same problem :(
brand new windows 8 - 64 bit
installation runs, printer is "connected" so the suite sais. already taken off all software and tried the updated driver from windows itself, does not change anything;
- printer is accessable through the webinterface, and all other pc's in my home (xp and windows 7)
- printing does not work, neither the printer settings. this causes the error;
c:\windows\explorer.exe
the adress 0x33c36fda causes a protection error - exeption code 0xc0000005
now clueless :smileysad:
