Printer I got a laptop for x-mas and it came with Windows Vista. I have a Samsung SCX-4200 printer and when I loaded the info I found out that it is not compatible. Is there a way to make it compatible so I don't have to buy a new printer?

Try compatibility mode. what this allows you to do is set your applicationPrinter - 1.gif (only executables) to run in a non-Vista mode. chose to run the driver installation in XP mode by doing the following on the setup. file
You can access this by right-clicking on the executable, clicking on Properties, and then choosing the Compatibility tab. It’s pretty straightforward from there.

This has worked for others.
