I am running XP Pro, with Service Pack 2. For a while, I have been printing and having no problems. I have an Epson R200 and it works just fine.
The other day, I needed to print some CD labels and could not. That was a problem. The error I saw, and continue to see, is this:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\ISShel00.DLL, GetLastError()=193
As you can see, there is the word "Drivers" in the error. I thought I would re-install mine.
I did and now I do still get the same error. The difference is that, when I pressed OK, the error message would disappear and I'd just be back on my document.
Now, that error message disappears and I see not the normal print dialogue, but a printer chooser window:
When I then click to print, I get the same error. Only then, when I click OK, does it disappear.
I have tried re-installing a few times, deleting the printer entirely and then re-installing, using CCleaner to help uninstalls, etc.
Whatever I do, I cannot seem to get around that particular error message and I would REALLY like to get my printer working.
Another odd thing just happened...
Just as I was about to post this query, I thought that I would check it for spelling and ran it through Microsoft Word (part of Office 2007).
When I had finished, cutting the text out of my Word document to post here, the same error (as in my first screenshot) came up. I hadn't even tried to print. I had just, literally, cut the text out of the document.
I am not sure what the connection could be (or if there is one at all), because my label printing software - from the first instance - has nothing to do with Word.
Because I did not want to cloud any issues, I hesitated posting that last bit, but thought that it could also help and I would rather have given a bit more information than too little.
Thanks.
