Windows XP Home SP2, Compaq Presario V2000, Lexmark 640 (actually
Z645) printer

When I try to install the software from (I also tried using the cd)
the Lexmark site http://support.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/...d=Lexmark+Z640
the installation fails near the end and I get the error:

An error occurred during the installation of the device
The specified print monitor is unknown.

I tried running sfc /scannow because someone with a similar problem
said that worked. No help.

The printer previously worked on this machine.

What's a print monitor? How do I get this software to install? What's
going on here?
