Did it give you the name of the missing/incompatible DLL file? Lots of people still run W2K, including me. Maybe someone can find the file and send you a copy.

I deleted that and now when I get to the printer install Finish screen, I get an error message saying that the printer cannot be installed because the printer (something or another) does not exist. Microsoft had a link to a hotfix site, which let me down a dead end. Hotfix no longer exists and the page explains upgrade strategies for a new O/S.  Thanks for nothing, Microsoft.
