I have 3 disk images (using Diskcopy 6.3.3) for HP

You can turn them back into floppies on most 68K/PPC machines or just mount
them and install.
Let me know if those will work.
Actually you can just download drivers here:

Thank you,
I appreciate the willingness to help.
The current problem is a bit embarrassing - I can download the
software, but right now I don't have access to anything that can write
400K/800K Mac disks! . . . and HP no longer sells those files on
diskette.
So, once I can get enough information to narrow down exactly which files,
I'll just need local access to an early enough Mac, or work by snail mail
with somebody competent to write them. (talking my sister through
connecting her Mac to the net or transferring files is not feasable.)
Thanks
