i am running windows xp and office 03 and cannot install
printers. i get almost done with the installation and
get the following error. Printer driver not installed.
access is denied. i have tried logging in as
administrator of the local machine and administrator of
the domain and still get the same error every time i
install a printer driver. any suggestions??
 
I am having a problem with a local printer on port lpt1.
I have a roland color camm plotter and every time i try to
install the drivers i get a message saying: The current
printer driver is not comptabile with a policy enabled on
your computer that blocks windows NT 4 and Windows 2000
kernel-mode drivers.

I understand this is because i'm trying to install win2k
drivers on a WinXP 2003 server OS. I need to be able to
disable this as this is the only drivers available for
this machine.

Also i noticed that it could not detect my printer through
plug and play.
