Setting up a shared printer not in Add Printer Wizard

I am trying to set up a Windows ME desktop so that it can use an HP Officejet 6110
printer installed on another machine. The Add Printer Wizard lists only an Officejet
and an Officejet LX - selecting either of these allows prints to be made but only
in Black-and-White, with the printed test page stating that colour is not supported.
I have tried the "Have disk" option in the wizard and, after inserting the HP 6110
disk, can find a number of files of the form *.inf. However, every one of these results
in the error message that the selected file has no information about the hardware.
I have also tried downloading a set of driver files and this gets exactly the same
results (ie. the selected file contains no information about the hardware). Any suggestions
as to how to set up the ME machine?
