Hello everyone,

I have a Print Server that have HP LaserJet 8000DN Network
Printer install and I have Win 98 SE client that I am
trying to install this printer to their machine. When I
Add the Printer and I Browser the Network I see the Print
Server and when I click on the (+) next to the Print
Server I don't see the printer. I install the Addition
Driver for the Win 98 machine the printer is share. I try
to type the network path name for the printer and it does
not find it. When I install the printer from a Win 2000
Professional computer I can see the printer and it work.
But not in Windows 98

Does any one know the reason why I am not able to see the
printer. If so email me thank you for your time.

See if File & Print Sharing is enabled and make sure your
permissions are correct.
You can use the net use command to map the printer.

Perhaps you are sharing your printer like : "HP LaserJet 8000DN " ??
Windows 95/98 doesn't like spaces AND names that are longer than 12 (I
think) characters . If you stick to 8 characters it will work for sure .
