Windows XP/2000 with Novell Client

3. You'll get a message that the server doesn't have correct drivers. Hit OK to continue (twice).
4. Choose the printer model (HP on the left, the specific make on the right). If you don't know the printer model choose HP LaserJet 4100.

Windows XP without Novell Client

Without the Novell Client, one can print in one of two ways. The first is directly to the printer and the other is through the Novell LPR printer server. We highly recommend against printing directly to printers. Printing to an LPR server on Windows XP requires the addition of Print Services for Unix. You may be prompted for the Windows XP Professional CD to complete the installation.

2. In Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs.

12. Choose the printer model (HP on the left, the specific make on the right). If you don't know the printer model choose HP LaserJet 4100. Click Next.
