I am trying to install NT4 print drivers as additinal drivers on a 2000 print server. When I select Windows NT 4.0 & 2000 for the drivers to add and specify the location of the drivers for NT4 I get a message that the drivers are not correct. This only seems to be happening with HP printers. For any of the other printers I can install the NT4 compatible drivers. Now, I did get the NT4 drivers for a Laserjet 4 to install but the drivers that I had were a combination of NT & 2k. So, is there anything special that I need to do to get NT4 drivers installed?

Will finxprnsv install third-party drivers? Most of the NT4 drivers that I need to install are newer HP LaserJets (4000 series & 8000 series).

Edit: I ran fixprnsv and it said that there were no incompatible Windows 2000 drivers installed. What I need to do is install NT4 drivers for the printerst that I listed above.

The drivers are directly off the HP website. I can install the NT drivers for some of the printers like Tektronix and some HP printers, LaserJet 4, 5, & 2200 (the cd works). I cannot install the drivers for any LaserJet 4000 series or 8000 series (CD or DL).
