I have two old but perfectly good printers, neither of which work in 8.
So last night I set up virtualbox and installed xp pro, which I have a licence for.
One printer is a epson c44ux which I had problems installing but eventually seemed to work except I get a message, out of paper, which it isn't.
I then installed a HP deskjet 720c which went in sweet and goes through the motions until another out of paper message, which it isn't.
I don't do much printing and if I could these, or any one of them working in virtualbox it would save me laying out for a new printer, for a while anyway.
