No problem in my setup - WinXP Home. I can add the same driver again,
and it will appear in the list as "xxx Copy 1". IIRC there could be a
problem if the driver is not standard with WinXP. Thus, if you've
added the printer from driver disks, you might want to try with a
built-in driver - e.g. HPLJ4.
