CAUSE

print provider on the computer that the network printer is connected to

likely to occur when the Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks and the
Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks are both installed on your computer,
although the problem is not network-related.
RESOLUTIONSTATUS
This problem no longer occurs in Windows 98. To resolve this problem, install the current version of Windows. For information about the current version of Windows, visit http://www.microsoft.com/windows.
