Our company uses a computer running win98 as our print
server. Is there any way to have the different versions of
the driver (98/2K/xp) available on the win98 print server
so that the user does not have to manually acquire them
either through d/l or disk?

I know about the above functionality being available for
NT/2K server but upgrading the OS is not an option at this
point.

Windows 98 is not capable of loading alternate OS printer drivers.
