Thomas, I just fired up W98 and did a "Find" for "print*.*". There is a file, "printer.txt" which describes how to get the proper drivers for Deskjet printers (www.hp.com/cposupport/eschome.html). If you cannot find this .txt file on your sister's computer, let me know and I will send you a copy of it.
BTW, I have my W98 set up to use a Deskjet 697C printer which is very similar to the 500C printer. Did you/your sister go to the Windoze Control Panel, click on "printers," click on "add new printer" and follow the on-screen instructions?
