DOCUMENT:Q124397 08-AUG-2001 [winnt] TITLE :HP 4V, 4MV, & Epson Stylus Drivers Don't Install Off Floppy Disk PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT PROD/VER:3.5 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.5 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you download the printer drivers for Hewlett-Packard (HP) 4V and 4MV LaserJet and Epson Stylus Color printers from the Microsoft Windows NT Driver Library (WNTDL), the drivers do not install properly from a floppy disk drive. If you copy the Epson Color Stylus printer driver, ESCP2MS.EXE, to a 3.5- inch disk and then attempt to install the driver on Windows NT Workstation, a prompt appears asking you to insert disk 16 for NT Workstation. WORKAROUND ========== To work around this problem, copy the files to a directory on the hard disk drive. When the dialog box appears asking you to insert the disk in drive A, instead, enter the path where the files are stored on the hard disk. The printer driver installs properly.
