Communicating With The Printer; Installing A Plug And Play Printer Driver (For Usb Only) - Argox OS-314plus User Manual

Communicating with the Printer

The bundled printer driver can be applied to all applications under
Windows XP/ Vista/ Windows 7 and 8, supporting 32-bit/ 64-bit
operation systems. With this driver you can operate any popular
Windows software applications including Argox Bartender UL
label editing software or MS Word, etc., to print to this printer.
The following installation steps are based on OS-2140 as an
example. The screens included for these steps are taken from
Windows XP; steps in other versions of operation systems are
similar.
Installing a Plug and Play printer driver (for
USB only)
Note:
We strongly recommend that you use the Seagull Driver Wizard
instead of the Microsoft Windows Add Printer Wizard when
installing and updating your Drivers by Seagull.
(Even though the "Add Printer Wizard" is from Microsoft, it too
easily performs a number of tasks incorrectly when updating
existing drivers. It also badly handles the situation where a printer
driver is already in use by a Windows application.)

wizard.
