Did you try to allow Windows 8 when setting up the printer to use
Windows Update to update the drivers or choose the option to
install drivers included in Windows 8 for each device.

Yes, no help there.

I ran the setup CD for the Konica Minolta again this AM and it worked
without error (!) and the printer is now working! I have no idea why
previous attempts refused to install the drivers?

Now back to the LaserJet 6L, gotta get it working or re-install Windows
7, the 6L is essential!
