You may visit the printer manufacturer's website and download the latest
driver if available.

I read in one of the MVP sites that you are suppose to
unplug all printers, cameras, and such before installing
SP2. Just what I have read.

My problem is similar, but it doesn't occur consistently -- but it happens on
about 75% of logins. What do we do?

Check on the printer mftr.'s website for updated drivers and any
information about how their software interacts with SP2.
