how to copy print driver to new pc

I built a new pc and installed NT4 sp6a on it. I downloaded and installed the latest print driver from HP's web site. Problem is my formating now is a little different. Is there a way to simply copy the drivers from the old computer running the same OS as the new one?

If you downloaded the driver, then there should be a folder that the executable created. Just copy that folder to a diskette or CD.
If you can't find the folder, or you deleted it, just go back to HP's site and download again. There may even be a newer driver there.

Sorry, I worded my question wrong. Is there a way to copy an old driver from an old box to a new computer? The available drivers online are newer, but they suck cause they change my formatting.
