Sorry if this has been asked before but I can't seem to find a solution.

I had a home network with 3 Win98 machines. Printing was fine. I got a new
machine with XP Home Edition installed and attached it to the network
replacing one of the Win 98 machines.

Now when I print to a printer attached to one of the Win 98 machines, I am
no longer able to have the pages collated. I have tried in Microsoft Word
and Adobe Acrobat but neither will collate despite having the box marked. I
installed new drivers on the XP machine but that didn't help. Is there some
fix for this???

Thanks.

If it's an older model HP printer which HP did not write updated drivers
for, you may have lost this functionality. It might be regainable using

Thanks. I'll try fineprint but the printer isn't all that old. It's an
HP2200.
