Installing a printer driver in Windows 95/98

You need to install a printer driver so that the printer can process the data from your application programs.

An original driver offers the best conditions for optimal printing re- sults. All available printer drivers can be found on the CD-ROM en- closed with the printer, as well as on our Internet site, from which you can also download updated versions as necessary.

The use of any Windows printer driver from the CD-ROM requires that the printer is set to Epson emulation (see Menu parameters, page 57 and chapter Emulations, page 107).

To install the printer driver, proceed as follows.

1.Insert the supplied online CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive.

2.Click on the Start button in the Windows taskbar.

3.Move the mouse to Settings and click on Printer to open the printer folder.

4.Click on New Printer.

5.Click on Next In the Printer Installation Wizard.

6.Specify whether you want to operate the printer as a Local Printer or Network Printer by clicking on the relevant option, then press Next.

For instructions on installing the printer as a network printer, please consult the documentation supplied with your network operating system and/or printer server, or contact the network administrator.

7.Click on Disk, then on Browse.

8.Select the CD-ROM drive and open the directory n:\english\drivers\<printer model>\win9x (“n“ stands for the letter of your PC drive).

9.Open the folder of your printer’s operating system, select the file oemsetup.inf and click on OK.

10.Select the printer type. Click on OK, then on Next.
