W98SE - Epson C60 driver needed
in [Windows 98]
|
From: Ben Fullerton on 20 Dec 2009 23:32 I have had to reinstall the drivers & etc. for my W98SE system after a HD crash. I followed the process using the original CD that came with the printer when I bought it new - several years ago. All went as expected - until I was asked for the "key" that came with the original purchase. Unfortunately, I have lost it sometime in the past years since I bought the C 60. Anybody out there have a Epson C60 and the magic 'key' that will allow it to be used? .... and be willing to send it to me? I can print .JPG files by copying them to a flash ROM card and then firing up my UBUNTU Linux. It does not need the 'code' to access the printer .... BUT, I cannot access the maintenance items [eg. clean the ink jets and print a test the results] and at present the yellow jet is clogged! Any help available???? Ben Fullerton ps. I will look for a reply here over the next few days.
From: Alan Edwards on 21 Dec 2009 02:44 I don't recall using a key on an Epson printer but why not try Epson and download the Driver v6.1bA or Status Monitor 3 v3.0aE and see if they will install without a key? FWIW, I have the install CDs for an Epson Stylus 600 and an Epson Stylus 760 and neither have a key on the case (though perhaps it is in the contents of the CD, but you say you have that) ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP Windows - Internet Explorer http://dts-l.com/index.htm On Mon, 21 Dec 2009 04:32:38 +0000 (UTC), in alt.windows98, benfnospam(a)chebucto.ns.ca (Ben Fullerton) wrote: >I have had to reinstall the drivers & etc. for my W98SE system after a HD >crash.
