Same problem. I have downloaded the drivers suggested at response 10, but I don't know what to do with the files once expanded (there is no *.inf file). Ideas?
BTW, here is Lexmark's unhelpful response:
Dear Thurstan,
Thanks for the update.
I am unable to send you a "Hp LaserJet" driver. However, your attempts to use the Laserjet Series II was correct. Since it has not helped, there are no other suggestions i can provide.
Theoretically if a program is supported in Windows 9x then the printer should be able to spool that data and print it. Should you require any further technical assistance please do not hesitate to reply. If you require over-the-phone support, please feel free to contact our helpdesk direct on 1300 362 192 (cost of a local call) and choose option 2. We are open from 7 till 8 (daylight
savings) EST, weekdays. Please be aware that products out of warranty may incur a chargeable fee.

Lee,
Thanks for your response.
I could not find a driver in windows XP for "HP LaserJet II", so I tried "HP LaserJet", "HP LaserJet series II" and "HP LaserJet IIP". None of these worked. If these are incorrect, please email me the "HP LaserJet II" driver(s) to try.
If that still doesn't work, I guess I'll have to reinstall Windows ME to do my printing from. I'm not sure how I'll be able to print from Office XP programs if I do. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers
Thurstan.

Dear Thurstan,
Unfortunately the WW200 is not officially supported on Windows XP. As there have been many advancements to the printing methods, Lexmark was unable to release a new driver for full compatibility. Although there is no "new" driver, you may of may not know that the WW200 does have limited PCL emulation support. PCL emulation is a printer language used by many printer manufacturer's. You could "try" to install your printer as a "HP LaserJet II" this may or may not work. This driver is a generic driver created and supplied by Microsoft built into Windows, via the "Add Printer Wizard".
If you require assistance installing this, please refer to your Windows Users guide, as this is not a supported step for your printer, Lexmark cannot provide any technical assistance with this installation. Should you require any further support on a supported operating system, please feel free to contact our helpdesk on 1300 362 192 (cost of a local call) and choose option 3, then 2. We are open from 7 till 8 (daylight savings) EST, weekdays.
