About This Guide
This guide tells you how to install HP CD extensions on your HP 3000
system and on your PC. It also gives you instructions for using the Media
Manager to effectively manage the new capabilities that HP CD extensions
brings to your HP 3000 system.
The chapters in this guide are organized to take you through the
installation procedure and to give you instructions for managing your
system. Chapters 2, 4, and the appendixes contain information needed by
a system administrator. The procedures in these chapters can be
performed only by a user with System Manager or Operator capability (with
Save Files capability for PUB.SYS). Chapter 3 contains information that
can be used by either a system administrator or a client PC user; you do
not need System Manager or Operator capability to install the client
portion of HP CD extensions.
