My nephews printer (Epson C42+) has stopped working so I went down to have a look at it. It was powering up properly, no warning lights were flashing and all leads were conected, but when you attempt to print anything nothing happens.
I figured it must be a driver problem so I downloaded the latest driver from the Epson website. I then tried to uninstall the driver that is currently on the computer and ran into problems. when I clicked the uninstall button from within add/remove programs in XP I get a dialog box saying the following:
I thought it must be a corrupted driver, so I thought I'd try installing the new driver over the old one. When I double clicked the driver package, it unzipped to a temporary folder and tried to run. Unfortunately all it does is bring up the same error dialog box as above when I tried to uninstall the driver.
So I can't uninstall the old driver and I can't install a new one, so I'm stumped. I thought I'd post here in case anyone can think of a possible solution, I'd be very grateful for any suggestions.
