Wait! Let me take this one!  I just went through the same thing with *my*
Okidata 92.  I got the IBM Plug 'n' Play ROMS and converted it from native
Okidata 92 to an IBM Graphics printer emulation.  

I had to get into the control.exe program and correctly set up windows 
for the new emulation. At the same time I had to disable any other 
printer emulations pointing to LPT1. Under Control's "install printer"
menu, make sure you have installed IBMGRX.DRV (That's the Okidata92
with IBM graphics.)  Under the "printer connections" menu make sure   
that the Okidata92 is on LPT1, and other printer drivers, if any, are on NONE.
This information ultimately goes into the WIN.INI file.
You should restart Windows to make it look at the WIN.INI file.

You can look in "Queues" pop-down of spooler.exe to see which printer
windows thinks it is running.

You may wish to run your Okidata standalone diagnostics to be sure you got
everything back in place on the printer side of things.  (I think you 
power it on with one of the buttons (LineFeed ?) depressed. . .)

	Best,
