There may be other options on comp.periphs.printers perhaps?
<http://groups.google.com/g/comp.periphs.printers>

There may be a solution with SUMO/DUMO also.
<https://www.kcsoftwares.com/?sumo>
<https://www.kcsoftwares.com/?dumo>

One might be to find any driver that "thinks" it's the right driver, and
then maybe Windows will stop trying to update it, perhaps???
<http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Home.aspx>

From my archives, here's how to use that site.

For example, here's the legacy driver I always have issues installing.

BTW, to download Sumo/Dumo, I think you'd better hurry based on this

It's almost worthless to solve a problem and only help one person doing it.
So I added the printer and freeware newsgroups, both of which are archived.
