Software for Windows-based computers
Network administrators: If the printer is attached to a network
through an HP JetDirect EIO card, the printer must be configured for
that network before you can print. For Microsoft and Novell NetWare
networks, you can use the printer installation software. For other
options, refer to the HP JetDirect Print Server Administrator’s Guide
(included with printers that contain an HP JetDirect print server).
Use the Customization Utility option to create a set of disks with the
exact software you want the end users to use. This allows you to
distribute drivers without distributing administration software to end
users.
