Hi. I just got a new computer with windows xp proffessional as the operating
system & I am having trouble installing my printer. The printer software is
for windows 95 or windows 3.1 & not windows xp. A message came up saying it
may interfere with some programmes if I installed it. Can I go ahead and
install the printer without messing the system up too much? What will happen
if I do install it? I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thanks.
 
No. Go out and purchase a new Windows XP compatible printer.
