Thanks so much Sir Troth. Really simple when you know how! Do you think
reinstalling and getting new drivers might cure the "out of paper" problem?
And why is my new Epson Photo 825 in add/remove programs and the old 640 is
not?

> To remove a printer, you wouldn't go to ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS. You need to
go, like you asked, to MY COMPUTER > PRINTERS. Make sure the printer is off,
then delete it from the list. Then, restart the computer with the printer
off. After the computer restarts, turn the printer back on. Then go back to
MY COMPUTER > PRINTERS and ADD PRINTER (or the alternate way would be to
just stick the CD that came with that old printer into the drive and have it
start automatically).

for that printer from their site. Then, do the ADD PRINTER and use the new
drivers for it.
