Step 11. Install Printing Software

 

The printer comes with printing software on a compact disc. The

 

printer drivers on this compact disc must be installed to take full

 

advantage of the printer features. If your computer does not have a

 

CD-ROM drive but you have access to one, you can copy the

 

compact disc onto diskettes for installation into your computer.

 

If you do not have access to a CD-ROM drive, a diskette is provided

 

with the basic printer drivers. (The diskette does not have all of the

 

software available on the compact disc.) The most recent drivers

 

are available on the Internet. Depending on the configuration of

 

Windows-driven computers, the installation program for the printer

 

software automatically checks the computer for Internet access to

 

obtain the latest software.

 

See the HP Support pages at the front of the printer user’s guide

 

and the Readme file on the diskette for additional information or to

 

order diskettes if you do not have Internet access.

 

Installing Network Software

 

If the printer is to be used on a Novell or Windows NT Network, the

 

networking software should be installed and configured on the

 

network before individual users install the printing software.

 

1 Load the HP JetAdmin software from the compact disc, and run it.

 

At this time load only the HP Jet Admin software. Once you have

Note

 

configured the printer on the network, load the additional HP printing

 

software.

 

2 See the HP JetDirect Print Server software installation guide and

 

 

the HP JetAdmin software to configure the printer for your

 

network.
