NOVELL MAKES NO EXPLICIT OR IMPLIED CLAIMS TO THE VALIDITY OF THIS INFORMATION. ----------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: n/a ISSUE: These .INF files were made available for customers who needed to extract the Hewlett Packard LaserJet Series 4 drivers that shipped with Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 for the purpose of adding these drivers to the NDPS Resource Management Service (RMS) broker. These drivers were not available directly / on all platforms and had only shipped with Windows itself. For some printer models and Windows platforms, this driver availability has changed. You are recommended to visit www.hp.com and obtain a the needed drivers if available and add those drivers to the RMS instead. Also, starting with Novell NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 1 and Novell NetWare 5.0 Support Pack 5, an "Extract From File..." option is available which makes using the .INFs included in NDPSINF.EXE unnecessary. For more information on either of the two options just described, see TID 10014100, How to add new print drivers to the NDPS Broker. - - - - - - - - - - - - - The Windows 95 32-bit driver support for HP Laserjet 4 series printers is accomplished by using a Windows 95 workstation and adding printers using the Add Printer Wizard. Add the following printers to the workstation as local printers and point them all to LPT1:. DO NOT PRINT A TEST PAGE. HP Laserjet 4 HP Laserjet 4/4M PostScript HP Laserjet 4/4M Plus PS HP Laserjet 4ML PostScript HP Laserjet 4P/4MP PostScript HP Laserjet 4Si/4SiMX PS HP Laserjet 4V/4MV PostScript Then copy the following files from Windows\System which have been extracted from the Windows 95 CAB files into an empty directory on the network. Notice that only one non-PostScript driver is added using the Wizard because this is sufficient to extract all the necessary files for all other non-PostScript HP 4 drivers.
