Unable to install a network HP DeskJet 810C Series printer on a Windows 2000 client
Hi,
I'm having trouble installing on a Windows 2000 workstation a "HP DeskJet 810C Series Printer" connected to a Windows NT 4 server. I run the "Add printer" wizard on the Windows 2000 workstation, choose to install a network printer, click "Next", the tree displaying all networked hosts and printers appears, I pick the "HP DeskJet 810C Series Printer", which is physically connected to a Windows NT 4 server, and then I get the following error: The server on which the "HP DeskJet 810C Series Printer" printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed. If you want to install the driver on your local computer, click OK. Then I select "OK" and windows 2000 tries to install the driver, but the following message pops up: The file '*.inf' on (Unknown) is needed. Type the path where the file is located and then click 'OK'. From this point, I cannot figure out which is the needed .inf file. The CD-ROM that came with the printer doesn't have any drivers for windows 2000. I refer the dialog box to c:\winnt\system32 , c:\winnt\system, and even to the driver CD provided by HP, but nothing worked. Also, HP's site doesn't have the driver available for download, instead, a message saying that it comes native with windows 2000 is shown. My question is: How do I install the HP DeskJet 810C printer driver on a networked windows 2000 workstation where the printer is physically connected to a Windows NT 4 server ? Help appreciated. Thank you, Fernando Ronci E-mail: |
