- Subject: WIN-OS2: HPIIIP and HPLJW.ZIP
- Lines: 30
-
- I downloaded HPLJW.ZIP from FTP-OS2.NMSU.EDU in hopes of getting better
- WIN-OS2 support for my HP LaserJet IIIP with the lower cassette tray. I
- installed the updated driver as instructed in the READ.ME (i.e. copied
- HPPCL.DRV, UNIDRV.DLL and UNIDRV.HLP) to the \OS2\MDOS\WINOS2\SYSTEM
- directory). However after ADDING the driver under a full-screen WIN-OS2
- session I don't find a selection for the HPIIIP. If I enter the CONFIGURE
- panel I'm told the driver is for a Laserjet III. If I OK and exit, then
- reenter the panel now says Laserjet II on the top bar. I am confused (spare
- me the thought now going through your head :-)
-
- One final bit of info: The driver I was using for WIN-OS2 was the HPPCL5A
- driver that came with OS/2 2.0 and was selected as HP Laserjet III. I also
- have drivers for the HP PaintJet and IBM ProPrinter X24 installed if it
- matters.
-
- Two questions:
-
- Does the HPPCL.DRV (153120 bytes) support the HP IIIP?
-
- If yes, any suggestions on how to select this printer?
-
- Thanx in advance for any help.
