However, if you do a'Hardware First' installation: 1. to the USB port on Windows XP, it is recommended that you accept the default selections that appear on the 'Found New Hardware' wizard dialogs to install the printer correctly. 2. to the parallel port on Windows 2000, and if a 'Hardware Installation' warning dialog, which states that the software you are installing for the hardware 'has not passed Windows Logo testing...' appears, click the 'Continue Anyway' button, and a signed driver will be installed successfully. - HP toolbox cannot access an HP LaserJet 1010 printer that is shared (MS Networking) by a print server or directly connected to another computer. - If, after installing the HP LaserJet 1010 software (including HP toolbox) with the 'Directly connected to this computer' option, you wish to install another driver for the same printer, two options are available (in Windows): 1. Use the Windows 'Add Printer' feature and select the DOT4 port, (e.g. DOT4_01) on which the printer is already installed. 2a. Insert the software CD in your CD-ROM drive b. Select the 'Add or Remove' feature in the 'HP LaserJet 1010' program group OR Double-click 'Setup.exe' in the root of the software CD to start the installer. c. Follow the instructions. Be sure to select the HP toolbox and the print driver you wish to install. d. Select 'Other', and then the DOT4 port (for example, DOT4_01) on which the printer is already installed. Do not select USB or LPTx, where 'x' is the LPT port number. - If, after installing the HP LaserJet 1010 software (including HP toolbox) with the 'Connected via the network' or 'Directly connected to this computer' option, you wish to install another printer (to a different port) and you want to access the printer with HP toolbox, you must use the software installer on the CD. You must select HP toolbox and the print driver you wish to use in the options provided in the installation. - If, after installing the HP LaserJet 1010 software, you upgrade your Windows Me/98 operating system to Windows XP Pro or you upgrade your Windows 2000 operating system to Windows XP Home, the HP toolbox software will not work properly.
