Printer

[Tenshodman]

I am running 2 printers off my Celeron 2.66 system. One is a USB Brother
MFC which is just working fine and the other is a Lexmark OPRA K laser
running on a parrallel port. It actually runs fine also except that on
reboot of the computer, and also after turning on the Lexmark the found "New
Hardware Wizard" keeps appearing searching for a new driver. I have already
downloaded a new XP driver for the Lexmark but it appears to be searching
for a Windows 2000 driver which I have never had on my system. Any pointers
to how I can stop the wizard as its more of a nuisance than anything else.
I have tried reloading drivers, searching the registry etc but no luck. Any
help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Try this fix,
The New Hardware Wizard may detect the printer device after every
restart of the computer

Hi Bob

Thanx. That sorted it out. Feel a bit foolish about not looking in the KB
in the first place.
