Printer sharing

You can find drivers for HP printers on HP web site - www.hp.com What is your network and what printer do you have? Be more detailed.

If you have a network printer, then the drivers should be installed on the server for the printer and each set of drivers for your clients. If you print server is NT, you need to set the printer for NT as well as install the drivers for Win95/98.

The drivers can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com --> drivers & downloads. Input your country and model of printer and you should be able to take it from there.

Just checking to see if you really meant drivers. I've had hp printer installations of a shared printer that have had trouble finding all the files it needed during the install. In those instances I have gotten the files from the host PC. I've copied them onto a floppy and reinstalled the printer on the remote PC. Make sure you update all files during the installation so you don't miss something. Insert the floppy when you need it.

you have u insert the CD of same OS like win95 or win98, and it will take its necessary drivers from the operating systen cd i think that's the right solution for this

well i did this sometimes : whem you user deskjet 6xx or 5xx and your windows ony have deskjet 500 from default .... pick that printer and this normally work fine .... just dont pick number that too far from the list ... go for the closest

i am using windows netwoking and a deskjet682c

Sounds Like you are trying to share a printer that doesn't support network printing which is the case with a lot of HP Deskjets. However the files it is trying to find usually can be found on the pc that has the printer attached. you may need to enable show all files on your host pc to find them. then search for them individually by name as they come up during the install, then if you have file sharing enabled you need to temporarily at least map the host pc to the one you are installing the print driver on & when it asks for the file point it the right direction by using the browse feature. this will usually work even if it is not a network printer. If you need specifics email me.
