I can't find my HP Laserjet 4100DTN in the Network

[pasagad]

I inherited maintaining a small-to-medium corporate network with M$ Windows 2003 server that was put together by someone who just followed some book for dummies. :eek:

I need to install other M$ Windows XP computers in the office but I can't display nor find it in the network. I can able to access it via web browser like http://192.168.1.5 (static IP) but it doesn't install because it's not searchable. I can't find the original CD so I downloaded this "lj4100pcl6win2kxp2003-en.EXE" from HP but it has no setup.exe or anything executable. :o

How can I install this HP LaserJet 4100DTN to other M$ Windows XP computers in my office network? :D
