HP 4V, 4MV, & Epson Stylus Drivers Don't Install Off Floppy Disk (124397)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.5
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.5
This article was previously published under Q124397 SYMPTOMS
When you download the printer drivers for Hewlett-Packard (HP) 4V and 4MV
LaserJet and Epson Stylus Color printers from the Microsoft Windows NT
Driver Library (WNTDL), the drivers do not install properly from a floppy
disk drive.
If you copy the Epson Color Stylus printer driver, ESCP2MS.EXE, to a 3.5-
inch disk and then attempt to install the driver on Windows NT
Workstation, a prompt appears asking you to insert disk 16 for NT
Workstation.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, copy the files to a directory on the hard
disk drive. When the dialog box appears asking you to insert the disk in
drive A, instead, enter the path where the files are stored on the hard
disk. The printer driver installs properly.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Windows NT version 3.5.
We are researching this problem and will post any new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
