Installing the printer driverNote • Only USB and Parallel versions are described here. The optional internal Ethernet port is configured in a different way, and may require technician help, see page
This section outlines the three ways of installing the P640i driver: 1) Direct from the Zebra Printer Setup screen (page
Note • If you are using the parallel port to connect to your computer, make sure the computer is set to ECP mode before installing the driver. To do this you need to check the computer’s BIOS. For help, refer to your computer manual or consult your technician. You do not need to select ECP mode if you are using the USB port.
New Hardware Found WizardNote • The New Hardware Found message appears only if the P640i printer has never been installed on the computer to which it is now connected.
If you plan to connect the P640i Printer to the computer’s parallel port, shut down the computer, then make the connection. USB, which can be connected “hot”, has a faster data transfer rate, and is the preferred port.
Power up the printer and start the computer. If you do not see the following screen, install the driver from Zebra’s Printer Setup screen, or use the Add a Printer procedure .
