Problems with printer drivers


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello

I used nLite to make my own WinXP CD, and I removed the printer drivers, because I have downloaded drivers from Lexmark (Z22, USB). I installed these drivers, and the printer works fine. But every time I start up

WinXP, it looks for the drivers that came with XP, but does not find them of course, since I deleted them with nLite. This is very annoying.

So, why does WinXP look for the drivers even though I installed Lexmark's? And more importantly, is there a way to stop WinXP from keep looking for the drivers?

B.R.

I found out that I could disable the Plug and Play service under Administrative Tools / Services. This solved the problem, but as far as I've understood disabling it is not really recommended.

Nobody else has a clue what else I can do?

Solution:

I just had to put the original Windows XP CD in the CD drive and everything was copied properly :thumbup
