Step 9: Install drivers for local printing

Note: For Windows operating systems, you can skip the hardware wizard and use the drivers CD to install your printer drivers. Launch the CD and follow the instructions to install printer software.

A local printer is a printer attached to your computer using a USB or parallel cable. If your printer is attached to a network instead of your computer, skip this step and go to Step 10: “Verify printer setup” on page 44.

A printer driver is software that lets your computer communicate with your printer. The procedure to install drivers depends on the operating system you are using.

Select your operating system and cable from the following table to find driver installation instructions.
