Microsoft Point and Print
Microsoft Point and Print is a two-step driver installation process that allows network computers to print
via a print server rather than printing directly to a product. Point and Print is similar to Window Sharing
except that the printer driver is installed on a network print server rather than a client directly connected
to the product. The first step is to install a shared driver on a network print server. The second step is
to "point" to the print server from a network client so that the client can use the printer driver.
NOTE: Point and Print is a feature of Microsoft operating systems, not of HP printer drivers. If these
procedures are not successful, or for more information about Point and Print networking procedures,
contact Microsoft at the following Web site:
