    Can't Install Printers in Vista

    I am unable to install any printers to any ports by any manufacturer. After I
    pick the port and point to the correct Vista printer driver for the printer,
    after a few seconds, I get the msg: "Printer driver was not installed.
    Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000002).
    Anyone run into this before?

    Make sure your user account control is turned on when trying to add a printer, or log in as the administrator
