Setting Up Your New  
HP OfficeJet Pro  
2
This chapter presents recommendations for placement of your  
HP OfficeJet Pro and presents the eight simple steps for unpacking and  
setting up your HP OfficeJet Pro. Be sure to perform the steps in the  
order listed.  
Choosing a Location and Environment for Your OfficeJet Pro  
Use your OfficeJet Pro only within normal office temperature and  
o
o
humidity ranges. The recommended range is 59 95 F  
o
o
(15 35 C) and 20%80% humidity ranges.  
Avoid direct sunlight or locations where a quick change in  
temperature might cause condensation inside the machine.  
Make sure the location is well ventilated. Dust, gases, or fumes  
(such as ammonia or paint thinner) can damage the machine.  
Choose a site that is level, flat, and stable. The OfficeJet Pro will  
vibrate and needs to be on a sturdy surface.  
Be sure a grounded outlet is nearby and easily accessible.  
To ensure that you can open the automatic document feeder all the  
way, make sure to place your OfficeJet Pro at least 9 in. (230 mm)  
from the wall.

Before You Start  
Before you start setting up your HP OfficeJet Pro:  
Have this User’s Guide and installation CD-ROMs ready.  
If you will be installing WinFax PRO, have your Windows 95/98  
CD-ROM or installation diskettes available.  
Direct Connection  
The HP OfficeJet Pro must be connected directly to your computer’s  
parallel port. Do not use a switch box or the pass-through port of  
another parallel port product such as a scanner, tape drive, Zip™ drive,  
or CD-ROM drive.  
CAUTION  
Connecting your HP OfficeJet Pro to a switch box or the pass-through port  
of another parallel product can cause erratic behavior of both products and  
the possible loss of information.

Parallel Port Mode/Type  
In order to scan using your HP OfficeJet Pro, you must have your  
computer’s parallel port set to one of the following modes:  
ECP (Extended  
Available in recently manufactured computers.  
Capabilities Port) This mode ensures the fastest scanning speed.  
Note: Your computer may have ECP mode, but  
it may not be turned on.  
Bi-Directional  
Allows communication back and forth between  
your computer and the OfficeJet Pro. Scanning  
will be slower than with ECP mode.  
You can determine the mode of your computer’s parallel port. Most  
computers have a Setup, CMOS, Hardware Configuration, or other  
screen that can be accessed during the boot process. This screen  
shows your computer’s current settings, including parallel port mode.  
To learn more about changing the parallel port mode in your  
computer, consult the User’s Guide that came with your computer or  
read the ECP document that will be automatically installed in your  
HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series program folder when you install your  
software.

Step 8 — Align Your Tri-Color and Black Print Cartridges  
Before you start using your HP OfficeJet Pro, you need to align the  
tri-color and black print cartridges to ensure the best copy and print  
quality.  
When you turn on your HP OfficeJet Pro for the first time, you will see  
the message “Initializing,” followed by the message “Press Resume to  
Align Cartridges” on the front panel display.

Now look closely at the set of vertical bars and determine which  
set lines up the best.  
Select the letter that represents the best vertical alignment on the  
page and press Select/Resume.  
If necessary, use the Plus (+) and Minus () buttons on the front  
panel to change the letter on the display.  
6
The HP OfficeJet Pro then prints another page to confirm that the  
print cartridges are correctly aligned.  
7
8
Match the alignment in Sample 2 to the alignment in Sample 1.  
If the lines are straight, the Align Cartridges procedure is  
complete.

This chapter explains how to make copies and how to use the special  
copying features of the HP OfficeJet Pro. It also explains how to use  
other features on the front panel and special considerations of the  
automatic document feeder.  
NOTE  
The scanner light remains on for approximately 12 hours after you turn on the  
HP OfficeJet Pro or make the first copy of the day. This keeps the bulb warm  
for optimal performance. The bulb uses very little power. After 12 hours, the  
OfficeJet Pro turns off the scanner bulb to save energy, and displays a “Power  
Save On” message. When you are ready to use the OfficeJet Pro again, just  
press any button on the front panel.

How to Make Copies  
1
If it is not already on, turn on the HP OfficeJet Pro by pressing the  
white button on the lower right front corner of the product.  
2
Manually (on the copy glass): Lift the document cover, place  
the original face down on the glass along the two green borders,  
and close the document cover.  
Put the long edge of your original along the longer green border.  
NOTE  
Be sure to place all originals, including small photographs, in the corner along  
the two green borders. Some features of the HP OfficeJet Pro look for items  
specifically in that corner.  
Using the automatic document feeder: Load the original(s)  
with the printed-side facing back in the document feeder, with the  
top of the document to the right. Adjust the page guide to the  
length of the original(s).  
3-2 Copying  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
When the originals are in place, the phrase “Document Loaded”  
appears briefly on the display, and lights flash.  
NOTE  
Refer to “Automatic Document Feeder Requirements” on page 7-5 for  
information on the types of paper you can use in the document feeder.

4
If you are making more than one copy, specify the number of  
copies to make.  
If desired, adjust the way your copy will look using the Copy  
Quality, Reduce/Enlarge, Lighter/Darker, and Color Intensity  
buttons. See “Controlling How Copies Will Look” later in this  
chapter for details.  
5
Start copying:  
Press the Black button to make a black and white copy.  
Press the Color button to make a color copy.  
Controlling How Copies Will Look  
You can change the default copy settings to produce copies that look  
the way you want them to.  
NOTE  
There is a small margin around the edge of paper that the HP OfficeJet Pro  
cannot copy onto. See “Copy Margins” on 15-3 for details.  
This section explains how to use the following settings and options:

The copy settings are reset to their default settings two minutes after each  
copy job is complete.  
TIP  
If you consistently use front panel settings other than the default,  
consider establishing those settings as your new defaults. See “Set  
Defaults” on 3-10 for more information.  
Number of Copies  
To specify the number of copies, when “1 Copy” or “x Copies” is  
displayed on the front panel, press the Plus (+) or Minus () button  
until the number of copies you want to make is displayed.  
Scan To Fax  
When you press the Scan To Fax button, the HP OfficeJet Pro scans the  
original you have placed on the scanner glass or in the automatic  
document feeder, and launches Symantec WinFax PRO. For  
information on using this feature, see page 6-1.  
Copy Quality  
The Copy Quality button changes the speed and quality of the copies  
you make. You can choose from the following three copy settings:  
Best produces the highest copy quality for all paper and eliminates  
the banding (striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas.  
The Best setting copies more slowly than the Normal setting.  
Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended  
setting for most of your copying. Normal is the default copy  
quality setting for most paper types, and is faster than Best.  
Fast copies faster than the Normal setting, and the text is of  
comparable quality. Using Fast also cuts down on the frequency of  
replacing your print cartridges because it uses less ink.

To change the Copy Quality setting, press the Copy Quality button,  
the small button directly beneath the three quality settings (Best,  
Normal, Fast), until the light next to the copy quality setting you want  
to use is lit.  
Reduce/Enlarge Options  
Using the HP OfficeJet Pro’s digital Reduce/Enlarge features, you  
can quickly and easily reduce or enlarge images to the size you want.  
NOTE  
Some Reduce/Enlarge features let you specify the exact percent reduction  
or enlargement you want to use. The Minus/Plus (– +) signs next to the  
feature name let you know whether this option is available. Press the  
Minus (  
the Minus (  
) or Plus (  
+
) button once to change the percentage by 1. Hold down

) or Plus (  
+
Normal 100% makes a copy that is the same size as your original.  
Entire 91% reduces your copy to ensure that all the edges are  
copied.  
Auto Fit pre-scans the original to determine where its edges are.  
Auto Fit then reduces or enlarges the original to fit on the paper  
you are copying onto.  
When enlarging, Auto Fit increases the size of the copy to the  
largest size that will fit on the page without distorting the image,  
and centers the image on the page.  
NOTE  
Use Auto Fit or Entire 91% to slightly reduce your original and ensure that  
you copy the entire page. Entire 91% is a faster solution, because it uses a  
fixed percentage to make the copy—no pre-scan is needed to calculate the  
size of the original. Auto Fit is an easy solution—the Auto Fit feature  
calculates the reduction percentage for you, and all your copies will be the  
same size.  
Custom 100% (– +) lets you specify (using the plus or minus  
buttons) the exact reduction or enlargement percentage to use.  
You can specify any percentage between 25% and 400%.  
HP OfficeJet Pro User’s Guide 3-5  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Poster 400% (– +) determines how to divide up the original image  
and enlarge each part to end up with an image that is up to 400%  
larger than your original. You can specify a different total  
enlargement percentage using the Minus () or Plus (+) buttons. A  
poster may be created using up to 25 sheets of paper (5 sheets wide  
and 5 sheets long).  
For example, you can use Poster to create posters of your work to  
display in your office or store. Use HP Premium Photo Paper for a  
glossy, near-photo-quality look.  
NOTE  
There is a minimum 1/4-inch overlap on all pages of the poster. This ensures  
that key elements on the page do not get cut off, and makes it easy for you to  
paste the pages of the poster together.  
Clone 100% (– +) fits as many copies of the original as will fit on  
one sheet of the paper you are using. You can specify a reduction  
or enlargement using the Minus () or Plus (+) buttons.  
For example, you can use Clone to make extra copies of special  
photographs for family and friends. For glossy, near-photo-quality  
copies, use HP Premium Photo Paper.  
Mirror 100% (– +) reverses the image of your original and makes  
a copy based on the percent reduction/enlargement you specify.  
You can use Mirror to copy favorite photos or images onto  
HP Iron-On T-Shirt Transfers. Then iron the image to make  
custom t-shirts, banners, and flags. You can also use Mirror to  
copy presentation materials onto HP Premium Transparency film.  
Then, when you flip each film over to make your presentation, you

3-10 Copying  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Using the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)  
With the automatic document feeder, you can feed up to 30 originals  
at a time. You can use letter-sized or A4-sized originals in the feeder.  
Here are some other tips:  
Always feed your originals with the printed-side facing back in  
the document feeder, and the top of the document to the right.  
Do not mix paper types or sizes in the ADF.  
Load only originals printed on 16–24 lb. paper in the document  
feeder. Originals on lighter or heavier paper will not feed  
correctly and may jam in the feeder.  
To prevent paper jams, use the ADF with plain paper or  
HP Premium InkJet paper only.  
Do not use photo paper, transparency film, photos, labels, or  
envelopes in the document feeder.  
When you make more than one copy using the document feeder,  
you will need to collate the sets manually.  
For instructions on how to clear an automatic document feeder  
paper jam, see page 12-1.  
Do not load colored originals printed on a color laser printer.  
Slick-surfaced papers will jam in the ADF. A full-page color  
graphic printed on a color laser printer develops a slick surface.

white button located on the lower right front corner of the product.  
NOTE  
The scanner light remains on for approximately 12 hours after you turn on the

for optimal performance. The light uses very little power. After 12 hours, the  
OfficeJet Pro turns off the scanner bulb to save energy, and displays a “Power  
Save On” message. When you are ready to use the OfficeJet Pro again, just  
press any button on the front panel.

Scanning  
5
Using your HP OfficeJet Pro and the software programs that come  
with it, you can scan text and pictures and then make changes to them.  
This chapter highlights the methods you can use to scan text and  
pictures.  
For more information on scanning, including step-by-step instructions,  
refer to the OfficeJet Pro Scanning Tutorial. See page 10-2 for more  
information.  
Scanning Methods  
You can scan in several different ways.  
While working in a word processing, spreadsheet, or presentation  
program:  
ScanPicture—Scan and import pictures while working in a word  
processing, spreadsheet, or presentation program.  
Acquire Text—Scan and import editable text using  
Caere OmniPage LE, while working in most word processing  
programs.  
TWAIN—Scan and import pictures while working in  
TWAIN-aware programs like Adobe PhotoShop.  
Using a standalone program:  
HP PictureScan (Scan to a File)—Scan pictures using  
HP PictureScan, a program in your HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series  
folder, and save it as a graphics file.  
Caere OmniPage LE—Scan text using Caere OmniPage LE, a  
program in the Caere Applications folder, and save it as a text or  
document file.

Using Scan To Fax and WinFax PRO:  
Scan To Fax—Launch WinFax PRO from the OfficeJet Pro front  
panel, and scan pictures or text into a fax to send. (See Chapter 6.)  
WinFax PRO—Scan pictures or text into a ready-to-send fax file.  
(See Chapter 6.)  
Scanning Tips  
Never scan at a higher resolution or bit depth than you need. It  
does not improve the quality, and just takes up disk space.  
Photos typically are not high resolution, so scanning at a  
resolution greater than 100 dpi will not improve the quality of the  
scanned photo image.  
If you want higher resolution for your photos, use the  
OfficeJet Pro 300 dpi printer destination under the Options menu.  
Keep in mind that one full-page scan at that resolution can use as  
much as 24 MB of disk space. See the Scanning Tutorial for more  
information.  
If you are scanning something to go on a web site or display  
screen, remember that most screens only display at 72 dpi.  
If you want to save an image in FlashPix (.fpx) format, launch  
Adobe PhotoDeluxe, and use the TWAIN feature to scan the  
image. Then save it as a .fpx file type.  
Scanning While Working in a File  
Scanning Using HP ScanPicture  
With HP ScanPicture, you can scan pictures directly into the document  
you are working on. It is the easiest way for you to scan. Most 32-bit  
Windows 95/98 programs that allow cutting and pasting (for example,  
word processing programs, spreadsheets, and presentation packages)  
can use ScanPicture.  
ScanPicture is automatically listed on the File menu of many programs  
after you complete the HP OfficeJet Pro installation.  
NOTE  
Microsoft Office 97 Users: If you installed Office 97 after installing your  
HP OfficeJet Pro software, you will need to run a special program to “turn on”  
this feature in your Office 97 programs. See “Installing the Office 97 Utility” on  
13-3 for more information.

your final picture will look better if you change the size  
to the required dimensions before you import it into your  
document. To do this, click the Options button, and click  
the Rulers icon. Then specify the size you want the  
scanned image to be.

Click Accept.  
The image you scanned is imported into your document.  
Scanning Pictures in TWAIN-Aware Programs  
TWAIN1 is an industry standard software/hardware interface that  
allows you to scan images directly into a software program using a  
menu command.  
TWAIN is a part of many graphics programs, such as Adobe  
PhotoDeluxe. Scanning using TWAIN is similar to using  
HP’s ScanPicture. The specific procedure is different for each  
TWAIN-aware program. Here is an example of how the TWAIN  
feature works in Adobe PhotoDeluxe.

Tips on Loading Paper in the Paper Tray  
All paper: Load paper print-side down with the letterhead (or top  
of page) going into the tray first. Be sure paper is loaded fully  
forward in the paper tray.  
HP Premium InkJet Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the  
nonprinting side of the paper, and insert paper with the arrow side  
facing up.  
HP Premium Photo Paper: Load the shiny side facing down.  
Always load at least 5–10 sheets in the paper tray. You can place  
the photo paper sheets on top of plain paper in the paper tray.  
HP Premium Transparency Film: Insert the film so that the white  
transparency strip, with arrows and the HP logo, is on top and  
going into the tray first.  
HP Iron-On T-Shirt Transfers: For best results, manually feed  
one sheet at a time, with the unprinted side facing down. Flatten  
the transfer sheet completely before using; do not load curled  
sheets. To prevent curling, keep transfer sheets sealed until just  
before printing.  
Special Considerations When Using Transparency Film  
Load a maximum of 80 transparency sheets at a time.  
Be sure to specify “Transparency” as the Paper Type setting.  
Ink dries slower on film. Be sure to allow enough time for the ink  
to dry before using the transparency.  
If you are copying from a transparency (that is, your original is  
printed on transparency film), place a blank piece of paper over the  
transparency on the copier glass.  
NOTE  
We recommend using only HP Premium Transparency Film when copying or  
printing on transparencies. Other transparency film can jam in the  
OfficeJet Pro.

Automatic Document Feeder Requirements  
Load a maximum of 30 originals at a time.  
Load only plain paper (white and color), letterhead, and  
HP Premium InkJet in the 1624 lb (6090 g/m ) range.  
2
Always insert originals with the printed-side facing back in the  
feeder and the top of the paper to the right.  
Do not start copying until the “Document loaded” message  
appears on the front panel display and you see the Copy Quality  
lights flash.  
Do not load colored originals printed on a color laser printer.  
NOTE  
Do not load photos, paper sizes other than letter or A4, photo paper,  
transparency film, labels, or envelopes in the automatic document feeder.  
Doing so may cause a paper jam.  
Slick-surfaced papers will jam in the ADF. A full-page color graphic printed  
on a color laser printer develops a slick surface.

Sharing the  
OfficeJet Pro Over a  
Network  
8
This chapter explains how to set up the HP OfficeJet Pro and your  
computers for network printing and file sharing.  
IMPORTANT  
Contact your network administrator before setting up your  
OfficeJet Pro for file sharing. Your company may have security  
guidelines for you to follow.  
Hewlett-Packard does not provide support for peer-to-peer networks,  
file sharing, and printing. Check your Windows Help system or  
Microsoft for assistance.  
After this is done, all computers that are set up properly will be able to:  
Print to the HP OfficeJet Pro.  
Access files on the computer directly connected to the  
HP OfficeJet Pro.  
NOTE  
Your computers must already be networked to use this procedure.  
Setting Up for Peer-to-Peer Printing and File Sharing  
To set up for peer-to-peer printing and file sharing, you will need to set  
up your “server” computer and “client” computers.  
A “Server” is the computer that is connected directly to the  
HP OfficeJet Pro using the supplied IEEE-1284 cable.  
A “Client” is another computer on your network that needs to be  
set up to print to the shared HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series.  
HP OfficeJet Pro User’s Guide  
8-1  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Setting Up the Server  
1
Install the HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series software on the server,  
as described in Chapter 2 of this User’s Guide.  
2
Next, set up the server so that other computers on the network can  
print to the HP OfficeJet Pro and access files.  
NOTE  
See “Enabling file and printer sharing” and “Sharing your printer with other  
people” in Microsoft Windows 95/98 Help for detailed instructions.  
3
Now, create a special folder that people using other computers on  
the network will be allowed to access. Name this folder  
appropriately, so that it is identified clearly as a shared folder (for  
example, “Share” or “Scanfiles”).  
Setting Up Client Computers  
Installing Printing Software  
The HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series printing software must be installed  
on each “client” computer that will be printing to the HP OfficeJet Pro.  
1
Run Setup.exe, from either the HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series  
CD-ROM #1 or wherever your network administrator installed the  
software.  
NOTE  
The CD may automatically run setup for you.  
2
3
When you see the “Welcome” screen, click Next>.  
When you see the “HP Software License Agreement” screen, click  
Yes.

5
When you are asked to “Turn on your HP OfficeJet Pro now...”  
click OK.  
On the “Select HP Components” screen, click Scanning Files to  
remove the check mark. (You are not installing the scanning  
software on the client computer’s hard disk because the scanning  
software does not work over a network.)

7
When the Communications Test fails, click Continue>.  
When you see the “Results of Communication Test” dialog box,  
click Next>.  
8
Select a Model Number when you are prompted to do so.

When you are asked to take the Product Tour, click View the  
tour now to remove the check mark, and then click Next>.  
10 When you are asked to insert CD-ROM#2, click Cancel.  
11 Click Finish to restart the client computer.  
12 After your computer restarts, you will see the “Electronic  
Registration” screen. Click Never Register for the first screen  
and Yes in the second screen so the registration screen does not  
appear again.  
Printing and font software is now installed on this client  
computer.  
13 Repeat this procedure for all client computers.  
Redirecting Client Printing Software to the OfficeJet Pro  
When the printing software is installed, printing is automatically  
directed to the “LPT1” port. It needs to be redirected for all client  
computers that will print to the HP OfficeJet Pro.  
1
On a client computer, open the Windows 95/98 “Printer” folder  
(instructions for doing this are available in Windows 95/98 Help).  
2
Select the HP OfficeJet Pro 1170C Series icon by clicking on  
it once.

4
From the File menu, select Properties.  
In the “Properties” window, click the Details tab, then click the

Maintaining Your  
HP OfficeJet Pro  
9
With minimal maintenance you can keep your HP OfficeJet Pro in top  
working condition. Perform the following maintenance procedures as  
necessary.  
Cleaning the Exterior Case  
Use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off  
the case. The interior of the HP OfficeJet Pro does not require  
cleaning. Keep fluids away from the interior of the HP OfficeJet Pro.  
Cleaning the Glass  
Dirty copier glass (fingerprints, smudges, etc.) slows down copying  
and scanning performance by as much as half a minute! This is  
because the scanner is actually processing the smudges on the glass.  
Be sure to keep the glass clean and free from dust, smudges, and  
fingerprints.  
WARNING  
Turn off the HP OfficeJet Pro and unplug the power cord before cleaning.  
Even though the HP OfficeJet Pro is off, power is still being supplied if the  
power cord is plugged in.  
HP OfficeJet Pro User’s Guide  
9-1  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
To clean the glass:  
1
Turn off the HP OfficeJet Pro, remove the power cord, and then  
raise the document cover.  
2
Clean the glass with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with  
warm water and a mild soap or detergent. You may also use glass  
cleaner.  
CAUTION  
Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, or carbon tetrachloride on the  
glass; these can damage the glass. Do not place liquids directly on the  
glass. They may seep under it and damage your HP OfficeJet Pro.  
3
4
Rinse the soft cloth or sponge with clean water, wring out excess  
water, and wipe the remaining soap or detergent off the glass.  
Dry the glass with a chamois or cellulose sponge to prevent  
spotting. If soap or detergent does not clean the glass sufficiently,  
you can use isopropyl alcohol as a cleaning agent.

and hold down the Select/Resume button on the front panel, then  
press the Paper Type button. Then follow the directions on page 12-1.  
How to Use the Self Test Page  
The Self Test Page lets you know whether the OfficeJet Pro is  
operating properly. It lists current, default front panel settings and tells  
whether the automatic document feeder is attached properly. You can  
also use the Self Test Page to check print alignment.  
To print a Self Test Page:  
1
Press the Menu button until the message “Self Test Page” appears  
on the front panel display.  
2
Press the Select/Resume button.  
The test page printout has a set of lines which should appear  
unbroken, and colored bars which should appear solid. The  
intensity of the colors will vary, depending on the type of paper  
you are using (that is, plain paper, HP Premium InkJet Paper, and  
so on).

Line up the equal signs (=).  
Verify that the vertical line next to the “A” appears between  
the two vertical lines next to the “C” (does not have to be

If the alignment is satisfactory, the copier mechanism is working  
properly.  
If the alignment is not satisfactory, see “Troubleshooting” in your  
1170C Series Toolbox, and read the “Self-test page” topic.  
If the Troubleshooting help does not resolve the problem, contact  
HP Customer Support. See “HP Customer Support” on  
page 11-3.  
Aligning Cartridges  
Use the Align Cartridges feature whenever you install new print  
cartridges. See “Step 8 — Align Your Tri-Color and Black Print  
Cartridges” on 2-24 for step-by-step instructions.  
Using the Self Test Page  
Use the Self Test Page to check the print cartridges and to determine  
whether the automatic document feeder is successfully installed.  
To Print a Self Test Page:  
1
Press the Menu button repeatedly until you see “Self Test” on the  
front panel display.  
2
Press Select/Resume.  
The message “Printing” appears on the front panel display, and a  
Self Test Page will be printed. See page 12-2 for more  
information.

Cleaning Cartridges  
Use the Clean Cartridges feature when the Self Test Page shows  
streaking or white lines through any of the colored bars. Do not clean  
cartridges unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of your  
print cartridges.  
To clean the cartridges:  
1
Press the Menu button repeatedly until you see “Clean  
Cartridges” on the front panel display.  
2
Press Select/Resume.  
The message “Printing a Cleaning Check Sheet” appears on the

Adding and Removing  
Software Programs

This chapter explains how to remove HP OfficeJet Pro software from  
your computer. It also explains how to reinstall the software, if  
necessary.  
Uninstalling Software  
When you install a software program on your computer, many files on  
your system are either added or changed because of the new program.  
When you need to remove a software program, you need to remove all  
files associated with that program, not just the files you see in a  
particular program folder. Do not simply remove the executable file  
from your hard drive. Be sure to “uninstall” it properly, using either the  
special uninstaller program that came with the product or using the  
Windows 95/98 “Add/Remove” feature, as instructed below.  
NOTE  
During the uninstall process, if you are asked whether you would like to  
remove Shared files, answer “No.” Other programs that use these files may  
not work properly if the files are deleted.
