Subject: Can't Print with Emacs 21.2 on WindowsXP

Hi,
Can't print with emacs on WindowsXP. Other apps do.
Can't find .emacs file, but found .emacs.d directory. Hmm?
Made sure ps-printer-name and printer-name were set to one of "LPT1", "USB",
and "USB001" with the printer connected as indicated. Did this with M-x
set-variable. Looked with C-h v <var name> and noted descriptions. Also
made sure lpr-command and ps-lpr-command were the empty string, i.e. "" .
Looked in emacs manual (C-h i mEmacs) for instructions. Hence above
approach.
Looked online via google. Found indication that variable pairs
printer-name/ps-printer-name and lpr-command/ps-lpr-command need to be the
same thing. Tried that.
Here are relevant facts:
21.2 of GNU Emacs taken from archive
emacs-21.2-bin-i386.tar.gz
Emacs shows version: GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600) of 2002-03-19
on buffy
Windows XP
Samsung ML-1430 Laser Printer
Tried USB and Parallel Connections/Ports
The USB port seems to be a virtual port according to the driver properties.
The printer works with other apps.
Any insights or note of similar problem appreciated,
