Laser Printer driver

Hi All...

There was a "Laser Printer" driver in one of the Windows Updates and it was
compatible with the printer I have. Now, that I had to re-install windows
because of the new HD's I can't get that update anymore. Does anyone know
which security update had a driver called "Laser Printer" listed?

Re: Laser Printer driver

Make sure your printer in connected to your PC
and powered on, then visit the Windows Update
website and click on the link titled:

"View available updates"

Re: Laser Printer driver

Thank you Carey but that's the problem with Vista. The printer is not
supported by Vista and the Company doesn't provide drivers for that
particular printer. However, the generic driver that was included in one of
the windows updates worked fine with the printer. I don't know/remember what
KB it was but apparently it's too late for those updates anymore. I
downloaded an update from the update history and will try as soon as I get to
my computer. Other than that I'm stuck with a printer that doesn't work.
