Installing the printing system software

The following sections contain instructions for installing the printing system software.

The MFP comes with printing system software and printer drivers on a CD-ROM. The printing system software on the CD-ROM must be installed to take full advantage of the MFP features.

If you do not have access to a CD-ROM drive, you can download the printing system software from the Internet at www.hp.com/support/lj9040mfp or www.hp.com/support/lj9050mfp.

Sample model scripts for UNIX (HP-UX®, Sun Solaris) and Linux networks are available for download at www.hp.com/support/net_printing.

Installing Windows printing system software for direct connections

This section explains how to install the printing system software for Microsoft Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP.

If you are installing the software on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, or Windows XP, make sure that you have administrator privileges.

When installing the printing software in a direct-connect environment, always install the software before connecting the parallel cable. If the parallel cable was connected before the software installation, see Installing the software after the parallel cable has been connected.
