Knowledge Base to locate and install drivers for each computer and operating system.
The printer’s software CD-ROM
includes an
installer for loading the printer driver (the Phaser
8500/8550 Windows installer is shown to the
right). Alternately, CentreWare IS can be used to
download drivers from the printer’s hard drive
or the Xerox website. When installing the Phaser
8500 or 8550 drivers, the system automatically
loads and opens the Xerox Support Centre.
When the installation is complete, a shortcut to
the Xerox Support Centre will be visible on the
computer desktop.
After completing this lab, return any changed settings to the previous
values. Configure them using the Control Panel or CentreWare IS.
The Windows installer automatically generates a link in the computer’s START
menu to access online support pages for the printer:
