Default Epson Spool Error Win98 - unable to create new spool job

I just installed my Epson Stylus Color 400 on Pent 3,
Win98 computer.

When I try to print I get an error box entitled
'Epson Stylus Color 400' with error message
'Error while spooling to "". Unable to create a new spool
job.'
This error is the same when I disable the startup group
and from safe mode.

From a command prompt I can get a text print out from the
command 'dir lpt1'. Also cannot seem to open the Spool
Manager interface to make any changes to this, although
the file 'epspmgr4' is running as per the Close Program
window.

Thanks
