Microsoft Windows 9x client computers may not automatically download and install network printer drivers from a Windows Server 2003 network

Client computers that are running any of the following operating systems on a Windows Server 2003 network may not be able to automatically download and install network printer drivers from the server:

�	Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition
�	Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition
�	Microsoft Windows 98
�	Microsoft Windows 95

Important The preceding list of operating systems are called Windows 9x in the rest of this article.

This issue occurs because of a problem in the way Windows 9x installs network printer drivers.

Note This problem affects only Windows 9x client computers that are members of a Windows Server 2003 cluster network.

To work around this issue, store the driver for the network printer on a network share, and then specify this location when you install the network printer driver on Windows 9x client computers.
