Installing the driver software
You must install the printer driver software for printing. The software
includes drivers, applications, and other user friendly programs.
Make sure that the network setup for your machine is completed. (See
"Setting up the network" on page 27.) All applications should be closed on
your computer before beginning the installation.
If your IP assignment method is DHCP and IP address can be changed
whenever machine in turned on, we recommend you to use the Bonjour
program. Go to the http://developer.apple.com/networking/bonjour/
download/, select the program Bonjour for Windows according to your
computer operating system, and install the program. In case of Mac OS X,
this program might be already installed in your PC. This program will allow
you to fix the network parameter automatically. This Bonjour program does
not support Linux.
If your IP assignment method is static, follow the steps below.
1. Insert the Printer Software CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The CD-
ROM should automatically run, and an installation window appears.
2. Click Next.
• If the installation window does not appear, click Start > Run. Type
X:\Setup.exe, replacing “X” with the letter which represents your
drive and click OK.
• If you use Windows Vista, click Start > All Programs >
Accessories > Run, and type X:\Setup.exe.
3. Select Typical installation for a network printer, and then click Next.
4. The list of machines available on the network appears. Select the printer
you want to install from the list and then click Next.
5. After the installation is finished, a window appears asking you to print a
test page and to register yourself as a user of Samsung machines in
order to receive information from Samsung. If you wish to do so, select
the corresponding checkbox(es) and click Finish.
