sammy,

I don't know for sure, but I do know that nt4.0 is an operating system
called Microsoft NT4.0, like you see for sale here:

Could it be that you have the wrong driver? I don't know, but you might
want to check to make sure. Someone else might have more definitive
information about this.

You are trying to use the drivers that came with the printer, apparently.
Here are the Vista drivers:

Are you using Vista 64 bit or 32 bit?
