This is probably not what you want to hear but it may be easier to buy a new printer.
Any printer that worked with Windoze 98 is considered to be VERY OLD and may not
Have drivers that are compatible with XP -- VISTA -- WIN7 and are not supported
I like to think of printer cartridges as being like a sharpie marker -- when they were new
They worked great but when they are not used for a while they tend to dry out -- printer
Manufacturers change to new type cartridges -- end-of-life may be a good description
For old cartridges... Even if you could by some leap of fate find drivers and get it running
(old Printer) finding cartridges could be like trying to buy a film cartridge for a Poloroid ? Lol
