Installing the software

The Ribbon Print software has been designed especially for ribbon printing
and supports all Windows operating systems from XP up to and including
Windows 8

Insert the software CD, it should
start automatically. If necessary
open the CD folder and double
click the ribbonprint V4 file. Fol-
low the prompts to run the instal-
lation process.

Click next at each of the
installation steps

There is no need to in-
stall or setup any win-
dows drivers. Ribbon
Print’s V4.1 software
communicates directly
with the printer allowing
for a simpler experience
and giving a greater lev-
el of control of the printer.

Windows may attempt to install a driver when you first connect the printer,
this can safely be cancelled, as no windows driver is required
