Steve, Windows 98 doesn't do TCP/IP Printing without a 3rd party plug-in (like ACITS - http://www.utexas.edu/academic/otl/software/lpr/ or the lpr app with Hummingbird's Exceed). You have to use the HP JetDirect software or a print server to spool it. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Rance [mailto:Steve.Rance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2002 8:25 AM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] OT (Sorry) Standard TCP/IP Printing in Windows 98... Firstly sorry for the OT but I am hoping you can help. I am in one of our remote offices, all the PC's are Windows 98. =20 We have a HP Deskjet cp1700 with a Jetdirect box connected. The PC's connect to it either using HP Jetdirect TCP/IP Port, or = Standard TCP/IP Port. If anyone printers to it with HP Jetdirect TCP/IP Port they get a = Windows Error and the spooler crashes. All users using Standard TCP/IP = Port setup work fine. I want to set up everyone with Standard TCP/IP Port but can't seen to = find out how to install the port on the machine. I have searched HP, = Microsoft, Google and Ask but have not found anything useful. How do I install Standard TCP/IP Port on a Windows 98 PC ? Thanks for any help.
