I was recently trying to add one of my network printers on Vista and got this ugly meaage saying
"Specified Print Monitor is unknown"
I had in the past added other network printers and it installed fine. So i tried adding another network printer (Brother 8840) and this installed fine. SO the problem was coming only for my Konica Minolta Magicolor 2300 DL printer.
The problem turned out to be again with Vista. If you have User Account Control turned off, you might face this problem. STRANGE.
SOLUTION :
So i turned off UAC in control panel, user accounts and restarted.
Tried adding the printer again, and SUCCESS.
After adding the printer, i turned off UAC again without any issues with using the printer.
So, another one of those VISTA problems Solved.
