Installing Windows Drivers

A printer driver is software that lets your computer communicate with your printer. The procedure to
install drivers may differ depending on the operating system you are using. All applications should be
closed on your PC before beginning installation.
You can install the printer software for a local, networked or wireless printer using the recommended or
custom method.
