I have 2 computers, A and B. Both computers are running on XP Professional
SP2. Computer A is installed with a HP LaserJet 1022. Computer B is
installed
with Epson Stylus C79. Both printers are using USB interface. As both
computers are in the same network, I shared both printers out, so that
computer A can use the Epson printer, while computer B can use the HP
printer.

After all the setup, computer A can use the Epson and HP printers.
Computer
B can also connect to both printers. But when printing using the HP, only
blank page comes out. And when I login using administrator account to look
at
the HP printer Properties, it tells me that the driver of the printer is
not
properly installed. But I tried installing the driver from the CD and also
downloaded the driver from the website to install... all didn't work.

So I tried connecting the HP printer directly to computer B, and install
it.
But while installing the printer, I got error message telling me that the
required section was not found in the INF.

I have another computer C. C can successfully connect to both printers and
use them.

Let me tell you some history of computer B. Before using LaserJet 1022, it
was using LaserJet 1100. What should I do?
HP printers often like to have their software installed BEFORE
connecting the printer and associated cables. HTH, s
