GCC Printers 21 Series manual Software Installation

Software Installation

The software required to set up your Windows 2000 computer is located on the Elite 21 Series CD-ROM.

You can install the Elite 21 software on your computer using Plug and Play. This will work if you are installing the software on a computer which is connected to the printer through the parallel or USB port.

If the printer is not connected to the computer through the parallel or USB port, go to the “Using Add Printer” section immediately following Plug and Play instructions.

Windows 2000 uses a Wizard to help you install printer software. A Wizard is a series of dialog boxes. In each dialog box you make configuration choices then click the Next button to move to the next dialog box.

Note: These instructions cover installing the Elite 21 as a local printer (connected via a parallel or serial port) on a Windows 2000 workstation or server.

If installing the printer as a stand-alone Ethernet device on a Windows network, we recommend following these instructions as if the printer were being installed as a local device on LPT1:. Once the installation is complete, proceed to the Windows 2000 section of Chapter 7 of this manual (Networking the Elite 21 Printer) for instructions for setting up the printer as an Ethernet network device.
