    It depends on what is in the XP Embedded OS. If you have added printing support and some base drivers, it is possible. If there is a critical component(s) missing it becomes a challenge. You would have to include everything in the missing component(s) first before install the device driver. Rebuilding the image from Target Designer with the right components is simpler.

    Did you build the OS for the system? Or is this a thin client you purchased? If thin client, you should contact the manufacture to add support for your printer.
