wiafbdrv.dll missing from windows xp

I am trying to install my new Kodak ESP7 printer. It will not install all
the components because it says that I need the wiafbdrv.dll from my Win XP CD
installation disk. When I put in the Win XP CD is says it is not there.
Microsoft has a download on their site for this drive for a Vista 64 bit
computer, but I have a 32 bit. I guess they do not want to provide it for XP
or I can't find it. When I wrote them an e-mail for help they suggested I go
to the newsgroup, HP, or pay for their tech help. Does anyone know how to get
this drive?

Have you uninstalled your (old) Lexmark printer?

Most likely the file is on the Installation CD for the Kodak ESP7
printer. When prompted to insert the XP CD, insert the Printer install
CD instead.
