Helpful Hints
• The installer automatically updates your SYSTEM.INI Windows@
file by adding DEVICE=bi-di.386 under the [386Enh] section. If any
bidirectional parallel communications device driver has previously
been installed, it will be deactivated by this new driver. If you want
to use the driver that was previously installed, you should first
install this driver, then reinstall your previous driver. However,
reinstalling the previous driver will make the MFC driver inactive.
• The installer makes the installed printer driver the Windows@
default.
* The installer automatically sets the printer port to the parallel
interface, LPT1.
• During this installation, changes have been made to the
SYSTEM,INI file. It is necessary to restart Windows@ so that the
changes become effective and the installed bidirectional parallel
communications device driver can take effect.
