Adding a printer
I have Dell Laptop Latitude running on XP. I bought a used
Brother Laser HL-630 printer. I am using parallel port. I am adding printer using pRinter/FAX by adding, it complains "operation could not be completed". I disgnosed troubleshoting and parallel port is OK. I consulted knowledgebase from Microsoft Windows. I wasted 1-2 days in trying all different combinations. 1) I checked to make sure Printer Spooler is automatic and started. 2) As a user, I am an Adminidrative Gropup. I down loaded drivers from brother webpage for XP. I need printing capabilities very badly for submitting my tax reurn. I appreciate any help. Thanks for any one to publish back or sent e-mail to yrk98 at yahoo dot com Thanks |

Adding a printer
You do not download anything from Brother. They do _not_ have a printer
driver for the HL-630 for use with Windows XP. You use the Windows XP CD. Quit Windows. Turn the power off on the printer. Connect the parallel cable from the printer to the computer. Turn the power back on for the computer and the printer. Start Windows XP in the usual way. Put the Windows XP CD in the CD drive and close the door of the drive. start the Add printer wizard. Let it detect the printer and add the drivers. If and only if that does not work, do the following- Run the add printer wizard again and select the options to add the printer but not automatically. For those options, follow the prompts on-screen as the wizard runs. Select LPT1 when it asks for the connection. At the appropriate screen, select Brother from the left pane and LH-630 from the right pane. Follow the rest of the on-screen prompts. Do print the test page when asked. When done, exit and restart Windows. Try printing. Let us know. Tom MSMVP-DTS "WULLIE" wrote in message ...
