Can't install printer driver

I have a home network laser printer I'll linking with my notebook computer w/
Windows Vista RC1 installed. When trying to connect to the main computer
where my laser printer is connected to...I get an error message which states
that
"Winodws cannot connect to the printer. There is not enough memory to
complete this operation. Plese close some programs and try again." Also I
notice that there are a few selective printer to choose from the pull down
list with the execption for my printer, which is a (Samsung CLP-500). I only
hope that I don't have to start investing in another laser printer next year
when vista do comes out in full production. In the meantime, is there a
another way by passing this error message so that I may connect to the
printer??? Thankyou.

RE: Can't install printer driver

Hi Corey,
This fix appeared in an earlier post.

http://support.microsoft.com/default...EN-US;q177078&

"On the XP machine, on which the printer is connected, I increased

Increas"IRPStackSize" from the existing 11 to 14 (increment of 3) according
to recommendation. "

Forget the last post with address of earlier post. Not the right post.
