Yes this is where i got all this imformation.I have even tried cleaning the nozzles. it says printer busy. thanx maggie
 
Is the printer used? Have you set the printer to your default?
To set default start --->settings--->printers and faxes... Remove all the printers (unplug usb from your current printer). Make sure there are no printer icons there. Restart pc with the new printer pugged in and nstall the driver again. It will then be default.

Use this link

BUT! make sure you dont download the win xp 64 bit version get the 3rd one down win xp 200 me or 98 :) that may be your problem aswell.. :)

Do you want to reinstall Windows?

Do you have a HP, Dell, Sony, Compaq, ect....? Please list the model number?

Also did they give you a Window installation Disk?

Well it won't be restoring it will be reinstalling, and most all programs you have installed
Will cease to work because the windows registry will be wiped! You can do a clean install
Which will wipe your entire hard drive, but you do not have to do a clean install, and you will still have all your document and stuff, I think, LOL. Do you have two computers?
So some one on the forum can walk you thru it if you're not sure what you are doing,
But windows XP installation is very user friendly and you could probably do it in yo sleep hehe
