Installation

Click Finish, and retry the installation. If the same message appears again, contact your system administrator.

The installation of the printer is now complete. If prompted, restart your computer.

Custom Installation

Custom Mode applies to driver installation for a USB or network connection. The installation wizard can discover printers that are turned on, and connected by USB and network cable, or you can manually select the driver from drivers that are available. You can specify the printer port, fonts, and the utilities you want to install.

Printer drivers that ship with Windows operating systems are called minidrivers. The minidriver is available separately for PCL and KPDL and provides basic support for your printer.

The KX XPS DRIVER is only available for printing systems used with Windows 7 and Windows Vista. The XPS driver is discussed in the Device Settings chapter. Minidriver functionality is not documented in this user guide.
