I installed windows 2000 and had to add a new driver for
my printer. However, windows 2000 does not list my
printer, compaq IJ750, and so I can't install it.
solution?
 
There is a driver and ID patch file for your printer.
Generally, you would download and run the printer driver install, followed
by the patch.
I don't have this particular printer, so I'd rather not go thru the driver
install on one of my machines so that I can describe it step by step.
Unfortunately, there are significant different methods used to install
printer drivers. Some install, and allow automatic recognition of a printer,
others require a session with the add hardware wizard. Some require that the
printer be connected and turned on, others will prompt for connection and
turn on during the install process. Woe betide those who do not follow the
instructions/prompts when installing a USB interface printer.

Hi Bob,

Download the latest Printer Driver for your printer.
in win2k, goto printers, say add printers,
later say have disk, browse for the folder where
you have downloaded the drivers.
