- Duh... I just replied to Matthias privately and then I read this note.
-
- I received a postcard in my box with my LaserJet 4. I filled in all
- the correct boxes and I received yesterday the Windows 3.0/3.1 drivers
- along with drivers for Lotus 1-2-3 and Word Perfect 5.1
-
- Windows part number- HPB-13025/3
- Lotus/WPerfect #- HPB-15015/3
-
- These are 3.5" diskettes so that's probably what the "/3" is for.
- That's the size I asked for on the postcard. Finally, I got a whole box
- of free technical manuals by returning another card supplied with the
- printer. Check with your dealer or HP. Maybe it's a domestic thing...
-
- By the way, I am having a small problem with my printer. It feeds two
- or three pages stuck together about every other page. Are you having
- problems like this? Any ideas? I am going to go out tomorrow and
- buy some different paper. One of the manuals I got was a paper
- specification document....
