What Is a Printer Driver?
Most computers require special software to link the programs you use to create
documents or images with the printer. This special software, called a
printer
driver
, converts the information from the software application into a format that
the printer can understand, and provides other handy features, such as
monitoring the levels of ink in the printer.
This Quick Start Guide describes some of the features of your
S830D Photo Printer and how to use them. For more detailed
information, view the
