Have you used the Browse button option to locate the printer install folder on the disk drive with the unlocated module and have it try again.

Normally printer install packages like these first create a temporary or install folder and extract all of these files in it. Third party ZIP programs that might be installed sometimes fail to create the correct folder structure. Sometimes you have to remind the install program where this folder is that the printer install package created, as Windows only knows where its own install folders are located. Worse, some of the printer install packages are so bad, they don't place some of their drivers in the correct folder because they are trying to support more than one operating system and don't test it very well on the different systems. With these you have to look around in their install folder and try several different locations within it.
