I did quite a bit of searching on the net for this driver,as you must have done too.You said that you were told the driver doesn't exist which is right,i did manage to find out that it was discontinued around 5 years ago (the driver that is).Looks like the only hope of getting the printer running is to upgrade your copy of windows to one that has driver support for the printer.
