There are, however, several driver sites which provide alternate drivers. Seach for "epson 300 driver xp" (or similar) with Google. It took me about an hour max. to find the right working drivers including an instruction for installation for an old Epson 240 or so. Good luck -- Have a good day M.

This is a problem with a goodly number of Epson and other brand
printers. They never wrote driver updates for XP. If there is a driver available for WIN 2000, that will probably work with XP. If not, then you may well be stuck with the in box drivers from XP, and often they do not support color, as they are meant to be utilitarian, mainly for text printing applications. If this is the case, consider sending Epson a note of displeasure. Only they will be able to resolve this, and only if their is enough consumer pressure.

As far as I can determine, Epson is showing only a Win 95/ME/98 driver
on the website that this link points to, which will not help the person who is running XP. Art Harvey wrote: "dreamronnie" wrote in message ...
