Can not delete USB entry

I am running Windows 2000 Pro, all the latest updates

Problem: I installed a Lexmark Z65n printer attached via USB so I could set
the IP address from the default. Once that was completed I disconnected the
printer from the USB and tried to attach to the printer via the IP address.
The printer via IP address was installed and shows Ready, but when I try to
print to it the printer trays "click", then nothing. I also have another
Win2K PC connected to it and it prints fine. I have uninstalled the
printer/software and reinstalled it several times and still no luck.

I need, think, to remove Lexmark USB entries from my regestry and reinstall
it. The problem is I I get for the below keys. I am logged on as the
Administrator while doing this. ANy suggesgtions would be appricated.

Cannot delete "registry name": Error while deleting key.

They are in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/ControlSet001/Enum/USB/Vid_403d&Pid_001a/13D006000
016874
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/ControlSet002/Enum/USB/Vid_403d&Pid_001a/13D006000

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/ControlSet/Enum/USB/Vid_403d&Pid_001a/13D006000016

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/ControlSet002/Enum/USBPRINT/LexmarkLexmark_Z65

Thank You

By default keys in Enum do not have administrator access. You need to
use Regedt32 and change permission on the keys you want to delete to
administrator full control. You just need to do Currentcontrolset
although it will not hurt to do the other controlsets.
