Dell all in one 922 printer driver

jamucat · 03-03-2005, 07:53 PM

I have problem trying to get a Dell 922 printer to run under ME. I am in Mexico and a friend sent this printer down with out checking to see what OS was on the computer. Seems that Dell does not have a driver for this printer except Win 2 K and XP. i am only here for another week and would like to get this thing working for my friend. Any Ideas what kind of driver can be found for this USB printer.
Thanks

Seeing that you posted this a second time in this forum is it safe to assume that my suggestions didnt work ?

Just curious... so please post back.

I was going to suggest perhaps trying to install the Windows 98 driver (as it is often the same as the ME version) but you appear to be correct that there is no pre-2000 version of the driver.

This honestly doesn't suprise me, 98 and ME are quite old at this point and are being phased out by manufacturers because they don't wan to have to support 6 operating systems (Longhorn is on it's way), all with their unique quirks.

It appears as if your friend will either need to install 2000 or XP, or find an older printer.
