How to Connect the Printer to Your PC

24
Before you can use the printer with Microsoft Windows printing
applications, you need to install printer driver software on the PC. Drivers
enable the printer to communicate with your PC and with software
applications, such as Honeywell PrintSet 5.
Note: Although Windows may auto-detect the printer when you connect
it to a PC through a USB port, you still need to install printer drivers on
the PC for the printer to operate correctly.
Use InterDriver to install printer driver software on your PC.
1 Open a web browser and go to www.honeywellaidc.com.
2 Select Products > Printers and Media > PM42.
3 Click the Software tab.
4 In the Drivers list, click the link to install the latest version of
InterDriver.
5 Follow the instructions to install InterDriver.
The installer unpacks and installs the InterDriver files in the
Honeywell\InterDriver folder in your program files directory and
creates two shortcuts in the Windows Start menu:
• Honeywell > InterDriver > InterDriver Wizard
• Honeywell > InterDriver > Check for Updates
Use one of these cables to connect the printer to your PC:
• Serial cable
• USB cable
• IEEE 1284 parallel printer adapter cable (optional)
