Hi wiggleyhips

According to the Xerox support site
http://www.support.xerox.com/go/results.asp?Xlang=en_US&XCntry=USA&prodID=M750&ripId=

"You will find an XP driver for this Xerox product on the Windows XP
system CD."

Wich means that you must use this path : Start > Settings > Printers >
Add a new printer, then you select the XEROX brand and Docuprint M750
Model.

According to this site the printer should be installed by XP - plug &
play

Xerox DocuPrint M750/M760 
Windows XP Printer Driver Installation Instructions

***   Important   ***
The Printer Driver for the Xerox M750/M760 Ink Jet Printer is an 
integral part of the Windows XP Operating System. Once Windows XP 
detects the printer, it will install the Printer Driver all by 
itself.  You won’t need to click anything! Below we have listed 
what you will see when you connect your printer to your Windows XP 
computer for the first time.


1. Attach either the parallel or USB cable.

2. Plug the power to the printer in.  You will see the new 
"Found New Hardware" message in the lower right corner of your 
desktop. If you don’t see the "Found New Hardware" message try 
restarting your computer.

3.  Your Printer Driver will automatically install. This will 
be acknowledged with a message.

4.  You are ready to begin using your Xerox DocuPrint M750/M760 
Printer with the Windows XP Operating System.
