Re: AFP questions

Has anyone else had trouble installing the printer driver from the web 
site?

I went to:

http://www.printers.ibm.com/R5PSC.NSF/Web/afpdr

And chose the download for:

"Windows 95/98 Version 5.09 (11/24/1999) 
                   The following self extracting file contains AFP printer 
driver for
                   Windows 95/98. After selecting, to unpack the driver 
enter:
                   filename d:path /d where filename is the name of the 
file and
                   d:path is the drive and directory path where you want 
the files to
                   be placed. Read the README file before installing this 
driver.
                   [English]"

I then put the file in c:\ibmafp  and went to Start --> Run and used 
"browse" and browsed to the executable in c:\ibmafp" so there'd be no 
question of a typo, and then added  the target folder and a /d.  My 
machine froze and needed a cold boot.  I read through the 40-page readme 
and could see nothing to shed light.

Anyone had a similar problem or know the answer? 

Thanks.

Creating Overlays:
The instructions on how to create an overlay have been here before.  In
summary, however:  You download the Special Print Driver from IBM's web
site.
