Note

Do not install the PCL or PostScript drivers on workstations that

 

connect to Windows NT and Windows 2000 servers when you install

 

other network client software. Clear the PCL and PostScript Driver

 

check boxes in the Components list during the Custom Install. The

 

drivers will be installed from the server when you connect to a

 

network printer (later in this section).

 

 

zFor a custom installation on a Windows 3.1 or 9x workstation, use the custom installation option in the installer.

For more information, see the chapters on peer-to-peer networks in the HP JetDirect Print Server Software Installation Guide.
