•Check the Operating System(s) that are compatible with your printer. Please refer to the OS Compatibility section of Printer Specifications in your Printer User’s Guide.

•If you need to know the exact name of your printer, you can

check the supplied CD-ROM.

• When you select an option in printer properties, you may see

an exclamationmark	or	mark. An exclamation mark
means you can select that certain option but it is not
recommended, and	mark means you cannot select that

option due to the machineís setting or environment.

The following procedure describes the general steps required for printing from various Windows applications. The exact steps for printing a document may vary depending on the application program you are using. Refer to the User’s Guide of your software application for the exact printing procedure.
