Windows XP SP1

I get this when trying to install an IP Printer while logged in as
Administrator. I can find the error on Microsoft's Knowledge Base
pertaining to Windows 2000 and a hotfix to fix it, but there's nothing
about it on XP.

We've got a few hundred of these SP1 machines running, and none have
the same printer install problem. Weird!! I suspect the user tried to
install the printer himself, but he's not admitting it. If that's
true, though, he might have fouled it up. Our machines come imaged, so
if it comes down to it I'll just start from scratch.

Thanks for the input.
