Anyone else ever have trouble getting HP DeskJet printers to set up properly under Windows 2000?
I'm having no luck with either an old 670C or a newer 841C. Win2k cannot even properly "plug-n-pray" detect the 670C, and with either printer, if I try to go through a manual installation it copies all of the files and then terminates at the end with a "driver not installed" error.
In both cases I am working from the parallel port (LPT1) although the 841 does offer a USB option (albeit I have no USB cable at the moment).
Any thoughts or similar experiences? Web searches don't seem to be turning up very many productive results tonight...
