Re: [Thinkpad] Can't print to parallel port

In Win9x, when you suspect a corrupt driver, you might (first
copying down or otherwise backing up all your custom printer
settings) remove the printer in Device Manager, reboot,
and let the OS detect the printer. If not, reinstall the printer
manually.

If that fails, you might try again, this time removing the
appropriate .INF files as well.
