I had a similar problem in 2007 with an HP DeskJet 1220Cse that came with a
Windows 98 driver.  I did get it working on my VMware virtual XP machine with
the help of these two sites:

You might see if anything there helps.  I can send you my own notes if that
doesn't work.

It's still the case that XP asks if I want to install a newer driver whenever
I start the inkjet.  I just say No.
