I have an older printer. I am trying to reinstall it after mucking things
up a bit with the manufacturer's printer driver. The MS driver that comes
with Windows has a problem, though. I have lost parts of it. When I bring
up server properties the driver is listed as being on my computer, but one
of the files "Data file: HPLJ1100.GPD" is not on my computer. Yes, I know
how to change search settings to search for all hidden and system files.
This tells me I need to somehow restore the original MS driver. I assume it
is on my Windows XP disk. Does anyone know a procedure for restoring one
particular driver from the Windows disk?
