It sounds like you don't have all of the files installed to run that COM object. Does the device work in another app on that computer? — David, Nov 15 '13 at 19:07

Please try to download all the SDK as with Zkemkeeper, it not able to register using Regsvr32 as its not able to to get all other required dlls.

Following is the url for downloading SDK for zkemkeeper.

www.findthatzip-file.com/search-18066782-hZIP/winrar-winzip-download-fpsdk.zip.htm

download it and copy all the dlls in to System32 for 32-bit and same for 64-bit and perform Regsvr, this will work now.

Ya I have solved ...This error occur because the com dll Zmkeeper.dll was not able to register .I tried it manually using regsvr32 but failed.At last I installed the demo software package which came along with the software which register all the wanted dll and after that added the dlls again as reference .It worked.but now also I dont know why i cannot do the same by regsvr32

another solution : is to register the Com By yourself as in this link: http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2012/03/05/referencing-32-bit-com-components-in-sharepoint-2010-after-upgrade-from-sharepoint-2007.aspx

this way you should do it in the target machines.
