Printer will not Initialize
We just purchased a computer with 32 Bit Vista. We downloaded a Vista
compatable print driver for our Epston Photo Sylus R220 printer. When we seek to print from Wordperfect 3X (with the Vista Compatable patch) we get the error message that "Printer will not Initialize". After we get that error, Gatway computer games and the Control Panel will not load. The latter simply blicks and disappears. We rebooted and were able to open control panel again and the games. The above error does not initally happen, but it eventually does. I tried removing the above driver and replacing it with a Vista supplied driver for the E P S R210, It initially worked and then we got the same error mentioned above. Also, the games would not open and neither would control panel. We have sent hours with Gateway on the this problem and have written to Epson. I even tried to download the patch on the Windows Vista page and I was told that I did not need this patch. I do not know what to do |
