I have loaded Windows 2000 Pro onto my system. I have installed the HP V40
Multi-function printer to this setup. When I try to print I get an error as
follows:
There was an error found when printing the document "Test Page" to DOT4_001.
Do you want to retry or cancel the job?
You get the error if you select retry and nothing if you cancel. I have
found a document on the knowledgebase ( 316079 ) but it is of little help.
It states to move the printer onto the parallel port. How do I move a USB
device to use the parallel port. My PC is a PIII with 512mb RAM and 120gb
hard drive. I hope someone out there can help me with this.
 
One of these articles may help.

Have you installed the V40 drivers? If so, go to the hp.com site and
see if newer ones are available.
