Note:

If you’re setting up your computer for the first time, you may see a message asking if you want to install a printer. Select Cancel and then complete your Windows 95 setup. You will be prompted to restart Windows. If you then see the New Hardware Found screen, follow the instructions under “Windows 95 Plug and Play” to install your printer software. If you don’t see the New Hardware Found screen, follow the instructions under “While Running Windows 95” on page 9.

If your computer is on a network and you connected the printer to a remote server, you need to set up the printer for network use after installing the printer software. See Chapter 5 of your User’s Guide for instructions.

Windows 95 Plug and Play

Try this plug-and-play procedure to install your printer software. If it doesn’t work, try the other Windows 95 procedure on page 9.

1.Turn on the printer first, then your computer.

2.If the New Hardware Found screen appears, make sure your printer name is displayed and the Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer button is selected. Then click OK. (If you don’t see the New Hardware Found screen, skip to “While Running Windows 95” on page 9.)

3.Insert the EPSON printer software CD-ROM (or diskette 1) in your drive.

4.Type D:\DRIVERS\WINDOWS (if you’re using the CD-ROM) or A:\ (if you’re using diskettes) and click OK.

(If your drive uses a different letter, substitute it for D or A.)

5.At the next screen, keep or change the printer model name. If you see a question about using your printer as the Windows default printer, select Yes.

6.Click Finish and then follow the instructions on the screen to install the software.

The installer creates an EPSON folder for your printer software icons and adds an icon for your printer to the Printers folder. If you installed your software from the CD-ROM, EPSON Answers opens automatically.

After running EPSON Answers, click the EPSON Look Your Best Color Pak icon in the EPSON folder to install your creative software and check out the extras.
