Windows Printer Driver Install Error 2502 / 250

Return to printer solutions |

Written By Luke Ridgway 20th Jun 2024

Windows Driver If you are getting 2502 / 250_ from the MSI Installer then you may be installing the driver while using a restricted user account that doesn’t have enough rights / privileges.

The error is basically saying you have insufficient rights to be able to write to the Windows Temp folder.
This location is required on your local PC Drive to extract files while the driver is installing.

Solution

You should log into the PC with a local admin account (computer administrator) (just to install the printer).
Contact your IT department if required.

Once the driver is installed, you should be able to revert back to a normal user account and still be able to use the printer.

*Alternatively, you could use the ‘bare driver files’ which does not use the MSI installer:

I appreciate the service I received during this support ticket. I appreciate being able to correspond via email and I appreciate being able to make contact with you fairly easily. It is very difficult to be able to make contact with people at many companies, but it was very easy to get in touch with you. I appreciate your support and service and am happy to leave a 5 star rating!

Thank you so much! The ID printer is working great and we really appreciate the honesty of your technicians! We could have easily been billed for repairs that weren't done, as our printer is no longer under warranty, but you didn\'t charge us at all. The technician superstar told me that it was a simple loose wire, which he reattached, and they shipped it back at no charge. Thank you!
