RE:

the driver at this link should work for you. It's a 7.4MB file dated 5/23/2002

 <http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=1500>

I'm also having a problem with winsteng.exe. I downloaded it from the link you gave and ran it. I selected a local printer, FILE port, and used the Adobe PPD file.

After I get all the way through and click "Install". The following messages appear:

System Error 126. Unable to load string.
System Error: 1797 The printer driver is unknown.

I've googled for a solution, with no luck.
Any ideas?

PS: If the Windows PostScript Driver is the answer, how would I install a new printer using this driver?
