Official statement summary: Kyocera did not release a dedicated Windows 10 scanner driver for the FS-1120MFP. The last official OS support was Windows 7. If the Kyocera Client Tool fails to launch:
KXDRV.INF.When Microsoft released Windows 10, it overhauled how the operating system handles imaging devices. Older scanners relied heavily on TWAIN or WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) drivers that were often 32-bit specific. The FS-1120MFP, launched well before Windows 10 became the standard, was designed for the architecture of Windows 7 and Vista.
Plug the USB cable into a Windows 10 machine today, and Windows Update will dutifully search for a driver. It usually finds a generic driver that makes the printer function for basic text documents.

On the product page, you will see a dropdown menu for operating systems. Do not look for Windows 10. Instead, select Windows 8.1 (64-bit or 32-bit) , or Windows 7 (64-bit/32-bit) . The Windows 8.1 driver has the highest compatibility success rate with Windows 10.
