To avoid confusion, this driver should be uninstalled, but the OS may automatically install it again if the user attaches a powered-up printer via the parallel-to-USB cable to Windows XP at some point.
Thus, if the Microsoft driver is installed, it should simply not be set to be the default printer. Furthermore, if the user attaches the parallel-to-USB cable to a different USB port than on initial installation, the Microsoft driver will again be installed for this new port.
Cable Connection : If you remove the parallel-to-USB cable from the computer, then before printing, power on or reboot the computer ensuring beforehand that the cable is connected to exactly the same physical USB port as it was during the initial installation. The cable should be connected to the powered-up printer already.
