Default setting up Dell printer AIO Printer A920 /Dell Demension using Me edition

I have a Dell Demension computer using Millenium Ed of
windows and I can not set up my new printer, a Dell AIO
printer A920. When asked to select a printer from the
drop down menu during set up the are no dell products
listed whatsoever. I hav no disc with this printer and
figure this is a "driver" problem??? how do I set this
up. thanks to anyone who can assist me. Bill Byrne

If you check the Dell web site
(http://www1.us.dell.com/content/prod...s=&l=en&s=dhs&)
you will find the following stated in the section "Find out if Dell printers
are compatible with your Operating System"
"The new Dell Personal All-in-One Printer A960, A940, A920, 922 and J740
Inkjet are compatible with systems that run Windows® 2000 or Windows XP
operating systems only. If the system you plan to connect to these printers
using operating systems such as, but not limited to: Windows NT, ME, 95, or,
98 the A940, A920 and J740 will not be compatible."

So to put it simply you cannot use your Dell A920 printer with Win Me.
