The Printer should no longer be grayed out, and is ready for use.
The screens shown above are from Windows 98. Other versions of
Windows may look slightly different, but the process is identical.
I have a Windows-only printer, and when I tried to install the Peer-to-Peer
Print driver on Windows 98/ME, installation failed.
Some Windows-only printers cannot be networked. If a Windows-only
printer cannot be installed using the Windows Add New Printer wizard,
but only by using a program provided by the printer manufacturer, then it
probably can not be networked.
Try the procedure described above (Solution 2). If you can not select a
Printer Driver for your printer within the Add Printer wizard, then the
printer can not be networked.
Using Windows 2000/XP, I installed the printer using LPD as
recommended, but I can not print.
Check that the correct Printer driver is being used.
