Printer unable to install

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

A few more details please.

Is there a printer listed under Control Panel Printers and Faxes? If so,
what printer is it?

Are there any "restore points" listed under accessories System Tools
System Restore? If so, try restoring the system to a date before the latest
updates. Let us know if the printer is listed and works properly.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
