Point and Print installation
The following information will assist you as you install a printer driver using the Microsoft
Point and Print function when the user cannot see the printer on the network.
Point and Print is a Microsoft term used to describe a driver installation process. It
includes two steps. The first step is to install a shared driver on a network print server.
The second step is to "point" to the print server from a network client so that the client
can use the print driver. This process is also described as a network installation of a
printer driver.
NOTE: This section outlines the procedures for installing print
drivers with Point and Print. If these procedures are not
successful, then you should contact Microsoft. HP
provides drivers that are compatible with the Point and
Print feature, but this is a function of the Microsoft
operating systems, not of HP print drivers.
Windows NT drivers written by HP are supported only on
Intel X86 processor types. Any other processor types
must use Windows NT drivers written by Microsoft.
