You need to install the HP Network ScanJet 5 Utility on your computer
(unless your network administrator does this for you). The PaperPort
software can be installed entirely on your computer (in the directory you
choose), or the program files can be installed on your network and the
data files on your computer, depending on what your network
administrator has chosen.
You can install either from the network or from the installation CD.
Before you begin, you’ll need to know where the install program is
located and where you want the programs and data files to reside. If
you’re installing from the network, Windows 3.1 users must have a drive
mapped to the network server volume where your network administrator
placed the HP Network ScanJet 5 Utility install program. If you cannot
find the install program, contact your network administrator.
The steps required to start the install program vary slightly depending on
the platform you’re using, as described in the procedures that follow.
