1 Installation
A printer driver is an application that manages communication between a printer
and your computer. Once installed, the printer driver settings must be
configured in the printer Properties and Printing Preferences. There are two
methods of installation. Express Install is a quick and easy way to install a
driver and certain features in package form. Custom Install lets you select from
individual drivers and utilities. In the Product Library window you can also
uninstall drivers and utilities with the Uninstall option.
You can click Maintenance to run certain utilities from the Installer window.
Click Documents to access the release notes, printing system operation guide,
and other materials. With Upgrade you can update the driver and utilities to a
newer version. Upgrade is only available if there is a product that needs to be
upgraded.
Note: In Windows operating systems, you must be logged in with
administrator rights to install the printer driver.
This section describes the initial steps to take before you install the printer
driver.

installation can be made from the Microsoft Windows Update site if a certified
driver is available and the system is connected to the web. We recommend you
continue to install the driver from the supplied installation disc for an expanded
feature set. In Windows, if the Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box
appears during the installation process, click Cancel. If the Hardware
Installation warning dialog box appears, click Continue Anyway.

to open.
The Product Library window appears with the license dialog box. Read the
license agreement and then click Accept to proceed.
