Install Printer Driver Without Win98SE System CD
Hi,
I bought an older HP "Laser Jet" 6L printer at a yard sale. This printer connects to the parallel port (no USB) and that is just fine since I am using a Windows 98 desktop computer. I downloaded the Windows 98 driver for this model printer. When I connected the printer, turned it on, then turned on the computer, Windows didn't give me an option to install the driver I downloaded. Instead, it "built a driver database" and requested the Windows 98SE system CD! Note: I didn't need the driver I downloaded. If I didn't have the Windows 98SE system CD, how does one "get around" this and install the driver from a different source? Thanks in advance, Brad Before you type your password, credit card number, etc., be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC. |
