No problem. Since winistger.exe or wininsteng.exe or whatever for WinXP
installs just the same Postscript driver that has already been installed
by WinXP installation you only need an INF file and can use the Windows
printer installation wizzard.

One INF file is here:

; printer.inf
;

[Version]
Signature="$Windows NT$"
Class=Printer
Provider=%MS%

; The Manufacturer sections lists all of the manufacturers
; that we willdisplay in the Dialog box

[Manufacturer]
"My Manufacturer"

; Model sections. Each section here corresponds with an entry listed in the
; [Manufacturer] section, above. The models will be displayed in the order
; that they appear in the INF file.

[My Manufacturer]
;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;replace it by *ModelName (within the PPD) and the PPD name
"My printer" = printer.ppd

;
; Installer Sections
;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;replace My printer by *Modelname and printer.ppd by your PPD name
[My printer]
CopyFiles=@printer.ppd,PSCRIPT_NT
DataFile=printer.ppd
DataSection=PSCRIPT_DATA_NT

;
; Data Sections
;
[PSCRIPT_DATA_NT]
DriverFile=PSCRIPT5.DLL
HelpFile=PSCRIPT.HLP
ConfigFile=PS5UI.DLL

;
; Copy Sections
;
[PSCRIPT_NT]
PSCRIPT5.DLL
PSCRIPT.HLP
PS5UI.DLL

[DestinationDirs]
DefaultDestDir=66000

[Strings]
MS="Microsoft"
