I have the same problem, an in Windows XP Professional I cannot find this printer driver where it was in older Windows versions: Select "Microsoft" as the manufacturer, and then this printer. Ther is not even a manufacturer "Microsoft in the list
Any idea where to find the driver? (I use a German version of XP Professional, the setup CD includes SP 1a.

Thanks
