Author Win32-Printer.ppd install problems

Environment: Win2k, Perl 5.6.1, PPM 2.2.0

I'm trying to install Win32::Printer from the default ActiveState
repository. I receive no error messages and it appears to install,
however, I cannot find any trace of it on the drive. My session looks like
this:

>C:\>ppm install Win32-Printer
>Installing package 'win32-Printer' ...
>Downloading
>http://ppm.ActiveState.com/PPMPacka...er-0.7.0.tar.gz
>...
>
>C:\>perl -e "use Win32::Printer; print $Win32::Printer::VERSION;"
>Can't locate Win32/Printer.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib
>C:/Perl/site/lib .) at -e line 1.
>BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.


Any suggestions as to why it is not installing correctly or what I could do
differently to accomplish this install?

I have the same problem.
I download the zip file and i tried to open it.
There was an error.
It seem's that the tar.gz file is crashed.

So no installtion is possible.
Do you now if ther is any where else an Win32::Printer.pm
File to install.
The Activestate one ist broken !
