I recently got a new dell computer which included Microsoft Windows XP. The
problem is that I have a Epson Stylus Color 880/880i/8 printer which includes
printer drivers for Microsoft Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000, Windows NT 4.0, and
Apple Macintosh, but not for Windows XP. My printer is not listed when I go
to "add printer" in the control panel. Do I need to go to the Windows
website and download some program in order to use my printer as the default
printer on my computer? Please help!!!!!
Thanks,
Alicia

Alicia, go to Epson's site. They always have their own drivers.
