Installing Printer Software

You can install the printer software for local printing. To install the printer software on the computer, perform the appropriate installation procedure depending on the printer in use.

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

All applications should be closed on your PC before beginning installation.

A local printer is a printer directly attached to your computer using the printer cable supplied with your printer, such as a USB or parallel cable.

You can install the printer software using the typical or custom method.

NOTE: If the “New Hardware Wizard” window appears during the installation procedure, click in the upper right corner of the box to close the window, or click Cancel.

This is recommended for most users. All components necessary for printer operations will be installed.

1Make sure that the printer is connected to your computer and powered on.

2Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.

The CD-ROM should automatically run, and an installation window appears.

If the installation window does not appear, click Start and then Run. Type X:\Setup.exe, replacing “X” with the letter which represents your drive and click OK.

If you use Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, click Start → All programs → Accessories → Run, and type X:\Setup.exe.

If the AutoPlay window appears in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, click Run Setup.exe in Install or run program field, and click Continue in the User Account Control window.

3Click Next.

•If necessary, select a language from the drop-down list.
