HP 1220C bi-directional error on installing windows XP

W

Hi Guys,
I recently installed windows Xp Professional on my
computer, an intel celeron 1GHz pc and immediately started
getting bi-directional errors.

The error is "bi-directional communication could not be
established on the port LPT1. You will not see any printer
status related messages on this port. Your printer is
currently off or capable of one way communication only"

What could be the problems. I also installed the original
printer driver from the cd and apparently windows
installed a second printers! HELP ME I NEED TO PREVIEW
BEFORE PRINTING ESPECIALLY A3 GRAPHICS.

Wilfred
