You are trying to install your windows xp printer drivers in Vista,therefore
"wrong operating system";

Click the attached link and see if HP has Vista drivers for your printer.

Both Epson and HP have hundreds of printer models to write Vista drivers for.
They will probably write drivers for the models they want to continue selling
and supporting, and won't for the models they want to discontinue supporting.

But they sure will continue to sell us ink (all modern printers are nothing
but dispensers for their ink cartridges. The printers may be cheap, but the
ink is not).

I buy my ink from anyone BUT Epson.
