7.5.2Auto Downloading of Printer Driver

The following procedure explains how to use this auto downloading feature of the printer driver to install printer driver to the client computer. We will install the PCL 6 printer driver to Windows 98 here as an example.

If you are not sure of your Workgroup or Host Name, see your system administrator.

Procedure

Open Network Neighborhood from the Windows client computer, followed by Workgroup (factory setting: Workgroup) and then the printer (e.g. Fx-0a62fd).

The factory setting of Workgroup is Workgroup and host name of the printer is "FX-xxxxxx" (where xxxxxx is the last three bytes of the Ethernet address of the printer). See your system administrator for the current setting.

The following message appears. Select Yes.

The Add Printer Wizard dialog box appears.

Select Yes if you want to print from MS-DOS-based programs and No if you do not want to, and then click Next.
