Printer Driver
1 Installation
A printer driver is an application that manages communication between a printer
and your computer. Once installed, the printer driver settings must be
configured in the printer Properties and Printing Preferences.
Note: In Windows operating systems, you must be logged in with
administrator rights to install the printer driver.
This section describes the initial steps to take before you install the printer
driver, and based on your operating system, the next procedure you can follow.
In Windows 7 and Windows Vista with a USB connection, a driver installation
will be made from the Microsoft Windows Update site if a certified driver is
available and the system is connected to the web. We recommend you continue
to install the driver from the supplied installation disc for an expanded feature
set. In Windows, if the Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box appears
during the installation process, click Cancel.
In Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003, if the Hardware Installation warning
dialog box appears, click Continue Anyway. In Windows 7, Windows Vista, or
Windows Server 2008, if a warning dialog box appears stating Windows can't
verify the publisher of this driver software, click Install this driver software
anyway.
Turn on the computer and the printer.
Insert the Product Library disc into the disc drive. The main menu appears.
Note: If the Product Library fails to start after inserting it into the disc drive,
use Windows Explorer to locate Setup.exe on the local drive and double-click
to open.
Click View License Agreement to read the license agreement.
Click Accept to proceed.
To begin the installation, click Install Software.
Note: If the Windows Security warning dialog box appears at any point
during the installation process, click Install this driver software anyway.
The Installer appears with several installation methods displayed.
