Win98 don't see printers

Hi, I have a win98 not reinstallable.

The user have 2 LPT ports ready and working in Hardware panel.

If I try to install a printer driver using .inf file Win98 tell me that
there aren't printer ports in the system. If I use a setup CD (for example
HP 1100) all setup work, but in the end I don't see printer in my printer
list.

There is some location to see win98 installed printers or some other
solution?

Thanks ins advance.

Test the printer and cable on a known good system. If it works, start
the problem computer in Safe mode by tapping the F8 key repeatedly
during bootup, then go to "Control Panel", "System", "Device Manager"
and remove the drivers for the LPT ports. Then restart normally. You
may be prompted for your Windows 98 CD.
