Now that you connected your printer to the parallel port of the computer, you are ready to install the Windows Printer Driver which controls the printer. There are two printer driver disks which contain Standard Driver for Windows 3.1/3.11, Standard Driver for Windows 95, and FPS Driver for Windows 95. Note that the installation procedure differs.
When you are using Windows 95, it is recommended that you should install the printer driver using MarkVision because the printer driver is reinforced with MarkVision’s features such as remotely changing settings of a network printer and checking status of a network printer. For MarkVision, see Chapter 2.
To install a printer driver in Windows 95, note the following:
•When you install the printer driver, the original OS
•When MarkVision may be already installed, select a printer name followed by (MV) in the Printers window. When MarkVision is not installed, select a printer name not followed by (MV).
GETTING STARTED
The Printer Driver has two functions:
1.it automatically translates formatting choices, such as tab settings or boldface type, into commands the printer understands.
2.it allows you to set up the printer according to your needs (printer settings).
If you encounter problems with this installation, confirm that your configuration corresponds to the minimum requirements listed on page
viat the start of this manual. If the configuration corresponds to these requirements and troubles persist, contact your dealer for assistance.
When running application programs under Windows, you select the printer type in the application program itself before you print a document.
