You should ask her to install a Windows XP-compatible printer driver from the CD-ROM that was supplied with the printer.
Key Takeaway: A printer prints random characters when an incompatible version of the driver is installed. The driver from the manufacturer may be new, but may not be compatible with her version of the OS. So it is always recommended to install the driver from the CD-ROM that came along with the printer.
