Installing Printer Drivers

A compatible printer driver must be loaded to enable a computer’s operating system to com-
municate with the printer.

The following procedures describe how to install each of the supplied printer drivers. To install multiple
Windows printer drivers, the installation procedure must be performed for each driver.

For installation from the PRINTER UTILITIES CD-ROM, see the separate supplemental manual.

Before installing a printer driver, be sure to read the “Readme” file for the latest information.

Windows 95 with Plug & Play (parallel connections only)

When using Windows 95 with plug & play*, follow the procedure below.

* The plug & play feature is effective if both the computer and peripheral equipment are equipped

with IEEE 1284 compliant parallel interface.

1. Ensure that the printer cable is connected between your computer and the printer and then turn on

the printer.

2. Start Windows on your computer.

Before installing the printer driver, be sure to close all other open applications.
