Installing the Printer Driver
2
Automatic Installation Using the Installer
With the installer, this machine is detected to determine whether it is con- nected by USB or is on the same TCP/IP network as the computer, and then the required printer driver is automatically installed. You can also manually specify the printer driver to be installed.
Note
Since this machine is automatically detected with a network connection, be sure to set the IP address of this machine before connecting it. For de- tails on specifying the settings, refer to “Setting the IP Address for This Machine” on the User’s Guide [Print Operations].
When installing on Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, or Server 2003, adminis- trator permissions are required.
If the wizard starts up in order to add new hardware with a USB or parallel connection, click [Cancel].
For IPP printing, it is not necessary to install the printer driver at this time since IPP printing setup is performed when the printer driver is installed. For further details on IPP printing, refer to “IPP Printing (Windows 2000/ XP/Server 2003)” on the User’s Guide [Print Operations].
