Push the power button on the printer to turn it on.

Purpose of the printer driver

The printer driver software helps to control the printing process, so the driver you select must match the printer you are using. When printing from an application in Windows, always use the printer driver specifically de- signed for your printer model.

To take full advantage of the many features of your printer, always create your documents after you have selected the correct printer driver. If you have a differ- ent printer driver selected when you print a document, then only the print settings that match functions of your printer will be valid.

Turn on your computer.
