Hey guys.

One of my test and development machines is running XP Home. Since day one I have always used printers connected by USB.

For the first time I am installing (or trying!) a Parallel printer and the installer is reporting that "NT Parallel Port Service is not running".

Not being the best with Windows/Services this is throwing me completely. It works fine on all my other machines.

Where will I find this service and how to I get windows to run it each time it starts?

Thanx, in advance, for your help!
