HP Web Jetadmin is a feature-rich printer management tool. However, it is not required for network printer installation. Where do I find the printer driver? At some point late in the installation, the installer software needs to have the printer driver to complete the installation. So at that point the installer may ask you where to find the driver. Knowing where to find the driver is usually the most subtle part of the installation. If you are running the installer from your printer CD, the installer generally knows right where to look for the driver -- on the CD. If you are running the installer from the Jetdirect CD, the installer will probably need you to tell it where the driver is. Here are a few places you can look:
