I just bought a new computer with Windows XP on it. I
have a Brother MFC9600 printer. The software that
originally came with the printer does NOT work with
Windows XP. The brother site, as well as the Windows
driver site, says the driver I need is "in-box". It is
not, however, on the list of drivers when I try to
install it. I have tried any and all of the drivers
around where mine should be listed (ie 9500 and 9700),
but none work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
You must install the printer with a Plug and Play event.

the driver is in the inf file but can only be installed by connecting the
printer to the system (or making a connection to a printer shared on a
system that is directly connected to the device).

from ntprint.inf
"Brother MFC-9600" = BRMFC9600.LPT.GPD
,MF\BRMFC9600LPT_PRT0,Brother_MFC-9600

I think this device is USB and LPT capable.
