The associated applications are not installed with HP
Driver Pack.

Computer Management -> Operating System Deployment.
2. Right-click on Driver Packages, select New, and then select Driver
Package.
3. In the “New Driver Package” dialog box, enter a descriptive name (e.g.
HP_8200_ x64_win7), select the top folder of the extracted driver packages,
and select the appropriate OS and architecture (e.g. x64_win7). Click OK.
4. Update distribution points to ensure the newly created driver packages are
available for use by the OS deployment task sequence. For information on
updating driver package distribution points, visit the Microsoft website at
