Setting
up the printer in Windows
The LC24-30 Colour is ideally suited for use with com-
puters running Microsoft Windows
system software. It
works best with the newest version of Windows - Win-
dows 3.1. If you are running a version of Windows
ear-
lier than 3.1, we recommend
you upgrade your software
to version 3.1. In particular, Windows 3.1 will allow you
to use TrueType
fonts. Fifteen TrueType
fonts are
included on the floppy disk packaged with this printer.
To use the printer with Windows, you need to install a
file known as the printer driver onto your computer.
This file is supplied on the floppy disk that comes with
the printer.
The following description
assumes that you are using a
mouse. (Click and double-click refer to the action of
using the mouse to point at an item with the on-screen
pointer, and then clicking either once, or twice in quick
succession.)
If you are not using a mouse, you can still carry out the
installation.
Refer to the Microsoft Windows User's Guide
to find out how to use the keyboard instead of a mouse
to operate Windows.
To install the printer driver under Windows 3.1, use the
following steps:
Turn on the printer and start up your computer.
If Windows does not start up automatically,
type
"WIN" and then press Enter or Return.
Double-click
the Control Panel icon in the Main win-
dow.
Double-click
the Printers icon
If you have never previously
installed a printer on
your system under Windows
3.1, a list of supported
printers is displayed.
If you have already installed
one or more printers, click on Add to display the list
of supported
printers.
