Where are you obtaining the files? Are you connecting to a printer shared
from another machine or adding the printer as a local printer?

I'd first download and extract the driver files again, maybe something was
corrupted.

You could also check the inf file with the driver and verify all the files
listed in the inf exist. That includes language monitors and print
processors.

I assumed you obtained the latest driver from Xerox.com but I am unable to
locate a driver for this device. What is the name of the print driver you
are attempting to install? This name is located in the inf file for the
device.

If you are hitting an error using an exe you need to extract all the files
first.

PRINTER_STATUS_ERROR

0x00000002

The printer is in an error state

In most cases the printer is not in a error state and can be connected to
another computer with no issues.

The only person who said they resolved this issue said they reinstalled
their operating system!

someone did suggest disabling UAC then reinstalling the printer and then
re-enabling UAC. I am not able to test this as I don't have a vista computer
with the error.

all instances found of Microsoft tech support with this issue went
unresolved as well as many OEM tech supports as well.
