5. Windows 2000/XP Installation

To simplify the installation of the SPP-100 on Windows 2000/XP

based

systems, an

configuration file is provided on the distribution disk. This

configuration file supports the SPP-100 in both standard printer port
mode and EPP mode.

5.1 Installing an SPP-100 in Windows 2000/XP.

1. Insert the SPP-100 into any available PC Card socket.

2. The first time a new PC Card type is installed the

New
