Ok, I downloaded the drivers, uncompressed them and stuck the installer on a floppy (this is a world away from my firewire 250 Zip & my iBook!).
When I tried to install the driver, form the floppy or the hardrive, the installation would commence, get most of the way through and then, an error message would appear telling me that a couple of items including the driver itself cannot be found, and do I want to continue with the installation, could this be a symptom of a corrupt installer?
After this the driver does not work + the ere is a Laserwriter 1200 printer icon on the desktop which is setup and ready to go, but won't work with the HP Deswriter, can I get it to?
Any help would be really appreciated.
