Some of the Windows 9x drivers may yet be available, but it'll take a
bit of detective work to find them. I just checked with hp.com about a
Windows 98SE driver for my PSC 2110, and I got the message that Windows
98 drivers were no longer available. Remembering that the file I
downloaded a while ago was for multiple Windows versions, I looked at
what was listed for Win2000 - and saw the same filename, size, and
datestamp that I have. I believe it to be the same file.
