print queue problem
Hello all,
I have a problem in installing my new wifi printer (Olivetti simple Way wifi). The installer stops, claiming that I still have print jobs in queue. I checked and the print queue is empty. I also stopped and restarted the print spooler, but still I cannot install the print software. Does anyone know whether there are registry keys / files that I should delete or edit in order to really clean the queue? Or, what can make the sw "think" there something in the print queue? Thank you in advance rvz

Thank you in advance rvz Hi, You might try going to the Olivetti web site and see if there is an updated installation program for your OS. You may also find some troubleshooting tips for reinstallation of the software. Additionally there may be a tech support phone number you can use to help get the printer installed. Certainly there are registration keys that get installed and you might try looking for Olivetti, but additionally some of the drivers may have already been installed and unless you have the driver list indicating exactly which ones are used you may not get them all deleted for a new installation. -- Jan Alter or

print queue problem
Thank you for the help.
I successfully installed the printer on another laptop. The problem resides in my laptop, which says there is something in the print queue, even if it's not true. Ichecked the olivetti site, with no help. rvz "Jan Alter" ha scritto nel messaggio news:Xtnij.4765$s67.2995@trndny05... "Rvz76" wrote in message ...
