INSTALLING MFP DRIVERS AND UTILITIES

NOTE:

You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from completing this procedure.

TWAIN AND PRINTER DRIVERS

The TWAIN driver is used for "Pull Scanning", i.e. Initiating a scan from your PC via software. Compare this to "Push Scanning" where you start the scan by pressing a button on the MFP's front panel. The TWAIN driver only works via USB connections. This means it's not possible to control the scanner over the network from your PC.

There are two different ways of installing the TWAIN and printer drivers:

1.Plugging the printer in first and performing a "Plug and play" type of installation. In this case you must install the TWAIN driver first.

2.Not plugging the printer in yet, but running the Oki driver installer program from the CD-ROM. This installs the TWAIN (scanner printer driver) and printer drivers. Once the printer is switched on and plugged in, the installation is complete.

Plug and play installation

The MFP is a "dual device" - Windows sees it as a scanner and a printer. This means when the MFP is plugged into a PC using a USB cable, you'll be prompted to install 2 different drivers; the TWAIN (scanner printer) driver first and then the printer driver.

1.Attach the printer to a USB port of your computer.

2.Switch on the Printer.

3.Insert the Drivers & Utilities CD.
