   Hmm Sounds like you have a corrupted driver, or one thats
ghosting anyway.
Go to the device manager from Control Panel and open the
printer device properties page. Look on the driver info
sheet and copy down all the files entered there. You will
then need to uninstall the item. Restart windows and search
for the files you wrote down. If these found, Physically
unplug the printer from data port. Then remove them to the
recycle bin.

Next - Find the entry in printers folder. If there is an
entry, delete it. Restart without the printer. Next plug the
device back into the port, and if the latest driver is in an
update file - run it BEFORE windows sets its default drivers
up. When the port detect window starts at the end of install
turn power on to the printer, and let windows finish the
installation with supplementary program pieces.

  Let me know how this goes.

There can also be other programs which may interfere, but
thats another story.
