Adding 2000 drivers to NT4 print server

by hutchingsp . Updated 25 years, 3 months ago

We’re beginning to roll out 2000 desktop machines, however at present all our servers are NT4 including our print server.

From the desktop machines you can browse the server and double click on the shared printer and the driver will be automatically downloaded – this doesn’t work for all printers as some have separate windows 2000 drivers and you’re asked for an .inf file.

On the server on the driver properties tabs there is an “Alternate Drivers” box where you can add drivers for Windows95, 3.11 etc.. is there a way of adding the 2000 drivers so that 2000 machines can automatically pull down a correct driver?

Thanks in advance
Paul
