Installing the printer driver and TrueType fonts

If at any time during installation of the printer driver you need help, press <F1> or choose <Help> on the Setup screen.

Note: Remember that you need at least 1.4 megabytes of hard disk space to install this printer driver and 1.85 megabytes of hard disk space to install the 35 TrueType fonts.

Always make a backup copy of each disk in the software package and store the original disks in a safe place. Use the backup copies to install the software.

Steps:

1.Insert disk #1 into the <A> drive. (Use the <B> drive depending on your computer.)

2.In the Windows Program Manager, choose Run from the file menu.

3.In the Command Line box, type

"A:\WTSETUP" and press <Return>, if A: is the letter of the drive containing the software program. You can also select this by clicking on the Browse... and selecting the drive in which the software program floppy is located. Select WTSETUP.EXE and press OK.

4.You will see the blue colored WinType Setup screen. Click the mouse anywhere on the screen or press any key to continue.
