   expand x:\i386\winprint.dl_ c:\winnt\system32\spool\prtprocs\w32x86\winprint.dll

   WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system- wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.
   
   a. Locate the following key in the Windows NT registry:
   
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print \Environments\Windows NT x86\Print Processors\winprint
   
   If the Winprint key is not present, create it by clicking Add Key on the Edit menu. If Winprint.dll is not specified as the Driver value in the Winprint key, click Add Value on the Edit menu to create the Driver value using the following settings:
