First of all I would like to apologize about my bad English. I hope that I will be understandable and I'll don't miss something in explanation. I'm in deep trouble because I lost a lot of time trying to solve my problem. I need a specific explanation of how to solve the following problem:
Operative system Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, old HP Deskjet 9300s on USB connection.
I install XP mode and Virtual PC. XP mode work fine but I can't use printer. Win7 see printer but they don't work, normally. XP mode see USB connected printer but I can't still use a printer.
Is there a way to use the original drivers and software related to the printer - there is only the driver for XPx86. I now that I can install printer with alternative drivers but that don't mean anything to me because: With original driver and utilities (for XP) I can print wide formats like A3, A3+ even 330x1270mm. whit original driver and utilities I know how many ink I have, I can clean & align print heads etc. Please help me. I think I will be a doctor of science in this case. The simplest way was that HP just make appropriated driver ... Thank You very much.

I already mentioned that I don't need compatible driver because with that driver printer work only like A3 printer - with basic features. Can't plot wide formats like A3+ and greater... Also ink level, print preview and other very useful utilities don't work at all. So I believed that XP mode will be a solution. But it seems that this will not be the right answer maybe... It's too complicated for me, obviously, because I was already stuck with a solution. Becouse of that I'm here. Thanks.
