First, simply 'delete' the printer in Start/Settings/Printers. This will remove some of the drivers. Look in \WINNT\SYSTEM32 for various files starting with HP (I believe most of the 9xx files start with HPF). You may want to look at the date/times of the files on the install disk and match them up. Delete any HPxxxxxx.xxx files with the same date and times. Also look in \WINNT\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\(number). -- If there is a no_junk in my address, please REMOVE it before replying!
