Windows 2003 Server - Neet NT 4 Print Driver

I have a server running Windows 2003 and several clients running Windows NT 4.

I have a HP LaserJet 4050 shared printer and I want to add support for the NT 4 workstations. When I select this option it asks for the driver. I insert the Windows 2003 CD and it does not contain it. I have downloaded the NT 4 driver from the HP web site and when I point to this folder for the driver it still doesn't take it.

What can I do you get this to work? Where can I find the right driver?

Thanks

Can I assume that you did the following?

1. Download the correct printer driver from the 4050 sub-model page: http://productfinder.support.hp.com/tps/ProductFinder?h_lang=en&h_cc=us&cc=us&h_page=hpcom&h_tool=software&h_query=Laserjet+4050

In my case I went with the 4050n (network jetdirect card) and downloaded lj343en.exe

2. Extracted the drivers by double-clicking on lj343en.exe to C:\lj343

When prompted for the NT drivers for the 4050n printer, specified the C:\lj343 directory.
