Unpack the files from my link if you cannot find them (uncheck install now). Note
if USB shows up when trying the two installs below.
1. Delete the installed printer. No re-boot.
2. Run setup.exe from C:\Temp\photosmart\enu\9x\Disk1. The path reflects where I
unpacked.
3. Test. If no go...
4. Delete the installed printer. No re-boot.
5. Run "add new printer" and choose "have disk".
6. Point to C:\Temp\photosmart\enu\drivers\win9x_me.
7. Test.
You might also try running usbready.exe at C:\Temp\photosmart\ccc to check the ports.
q. Do you think the Win 98 driver is bad? Or does the computer not have enough memory?
a. I doubt the installed driver is bad, but it may not support usb. You may need
to get memory or a parallel cable if the printer has a connector. Memory would be
your best bet.
