HP Install Network Printer Wizard (Windows) The HP Install Network Printer Wizard (version 5.0) is a utility for printer discovery, setup and installation on a TCP/IP network. On Windows XP and 2003 Server systems, Version 5.0 also supports printing on an IPv6 network, but printer discovery is limited to IPv4 protocols. For wireless print servers, the wizard includes modules that allow you to first configure wireless settings on the print server so that it can connect to your network. Once your printers have a network connection (either through a cabled/wired connection or a wireless connection), the wizard installs the printer on your systems or servers that will send print jobs directly to the printer. This is called "direct-mode", or "peer-to-peer" printing. If your system is a server, you can share the printer so that network clients can use the printer through the server, also known as "client-server" printing. The HP Install Network Printer Wizard is included on the HP Jetdirect CD-ROM supplied with standalone HP Jetdirect products. The wizard is run through the Install selection on the Jetdirect CDROM interface. The wizard runs from the CD-ROM, although some files may be temporarily stored and then removed from your system disk after a system reboot. A version that runs from your system disk is also available and can be downloaded from HP online support at: http://www.hp.com/go/inpw_sw Requirements ■ Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows 98/Me, Server 2003 ■ TCP/IP networks ■ The proper printer software (printer driver) to use with your printer and operating system ■ Printer connection to the network through an HP Jetdirect print server HP Jetdirect Printer Installer for UNIX The HP Jetdirect Printer Installer for UNIX contains support for HP-UX and Solaris systems.
