Windows

Some Windows operating systems may already include a printer driver that is compatible with your printer. This may mean that installation will seem automatic in later versions of Windows. System printer drivers work well for simple printing, but they contain less functionality than our enhanced custom printer driver.

Installing a custom driver will not replace the system driver. A separate printer object will be created and appear in the Printers folder.

Use the drivers CD that shipped with your printer to install the custom printer driver and obtain all the enhanced printer features and functionality.

Drivers are also available in downloadable software packages on our Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com.

1Turn on your computer.

2Click Start Settings Printers, and then double-clickAdd Printer.

Note: USB support is not available for the Windows 95 operating system.

3When prompted, select Local printer.

4Select the manufacturer and model of your printer, and then click Have Disk.
