I am looking for some help to fix the printer installation job. I am not really sure what to do. i am getting a error while installing a printer. The error is unable to install printer. I am using a Windows 2003 server with number of different Windows XP client. I am getting the problem on my own personal pc that has XP. The driver which I am installing is from the CD that I got with the printer. So that is the latest one. How can I fix the issue.

Try to run the setup with admin rights. You can do that by right clicking on the setup and clicking on run as > admin. Click on that and provide your login details and click on ok. Then move ahead. The driver setup will work fine. I think the issue that you are facing is mostly due to file permission. Due to low permission this kind of issue appear.
