hi everyone,
Hope you all can help me out.I just got done with a hard drive swap(just cloned old drive to new).and now the printers are missing.Error says cannot communicate with printer.Also there are no printers listed in the printers folder.there just gone.tried to re-install the drivers and such and still nothing,Everything else seems to work fine just the printers are some how missing.

Any help would be greatly accepted.

Thanks,
ndb@ndbdesign
 
You'll need to Remove the printer(s) in the Printewrs control panel; uninstall the printer(s) in Add/Remove Programs control panel; Restart your computer; Then re-install the printer.
