E Printing from DOS Applications About DOS Printer Drivers What is a printer driver? If you use DOS software programs (whether or not they are running within Microsoft Windows), you need a specific printer driver for each DOS program in order to print to your HP DeskJet printer. Printer drivers allow you to access the printer's features from your software program's print selections or menus. These features include print quality, page orientation, paper type, paper size, and character sets. How can I get a printer driver?
