Itunes won't open when iphone connected?

When i plug my phone into my computer (windows 8) itunes won't open instead the control center for the printer opens (?) and when you click itunes the phone doesn't show up.

Switch to iPhone 3GS it's still in right now

Very common this year. Apple and Microsoft are quietly parting ways so customers get stuck in the middle. Uninstall the iTunes you have. Download the current version and attempt again. I have Windows 7 and have many iTunes complaints. See Apple's forums for other solutions but hope this helps get you in the right direction. Best luck.
