Start->settings->Printer:

Are there any printers installed? If so, delete them an try again. Also, after connecting the printer to the PC via USB (try different USB slots), check the device manager if there are any unknown devices found.

Again: Go to Start->Settings->Printer and remove all the printers you find there.

Then go to the device manager, right click on this apollo p2500/2600 thing and try to update the drivers.
