Re: Printer Driver will not stay installed - asks to install immediately after installing when clicking on printer properties.

Try installing the driver locally, then making the connection. It sounds
like not all the require files are getting to the client machine.

Thanks for your help, but this is a network printer shared by the
server. It does not show a New Hardware Wizard.

I have a network Dell M5200nprinterinstalled. I only have this
problem with one workstation. When I try to print to the Dell it says
printerisnotinstalled. I go to Printers and right click on the
printerand click on properties. Immediately a dialog box comes up
that says theprinterdriverisnotinstalledand asks me if I want to
install it.

If I click yes I can install it. I go through the install and select
the correctprinterdriverand then finish. The same thing happens!
I am unable to print to theprinter. I have tried installing a
generic HPdriverand I get the same result.

I fixed the problem once by doing a System Restore this morning. I
thought I was out of the woods, but the problem reappeared and I do
notknow what to do.

As I said before, this is the only workstation with this problem. It
is able to print to other printers.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help!
