I am using WinXP Home Edition with an HP DeskJet 712
Printer hooked up locally to LPT1.
The problem is that when I click the "add printer" in the
printers and fax folder, it does absolutely nothing. I
have tried right clicking in the folder and going to add
printer that way as well as going to the file menu then
to add printer and still nothing.There is a strange twist
to this as well,even though no printer shows up in the
Printers and faxes folder I can still print from word and
adobe reader where the printer does show up in the print
dialog box.I just can't print from Internet Explorer and
Notepad or Wordpad. I found Microsoft article Q271248 and
need to try this out........has anyone ever heard of this
type of problem before ? very strange???????
