Default Add Printer Wizard won't go away

Installed Dell 720 printer xpsp2 per instructions cancelling hardware found
and installing with their software. Printer works fine, but hardware wizard
keeps popping up saying "can't find file specified" and when you hit finish
it pops right up again. Tried every way to delete and reinstall with no
luck. Never seen this before and need to get rid of it. Anyone??

It basically means you connected the printer to the PC BEFORE installing the
software which is the WRONG WAY ROUND.

Uninstall and reinstall your printer.... correctly.

The Dell Instructions are to have the printer attached and on prior to
installing the software, which I thought was wierd. We'll try it and let you
know.
