Installing a Printer Driver

Installing a

Printer Driver

Now that you connected your printer to the parallel port of the

computer, you are ready to install a Windows printer driver into

your computer. The Windows printer driver is essential for

controlling your printer in Microsoft Windows environments.

Several printer drivers are contained in the attached software set
consisting of a CD-ROM and a floppy disk.

Printer drivers in the CD-ROM are:

l

Standard drivers for Windows 3.1/3.11

l

FPS drivers for Windows 3.1/3.11

l

Standard drivers for Windows 95

l

FPS drivers for Windows 95

l

Standard driver for Windows NT 3.51

l

FPS driver for Windows NT 3.51

l

Standard driver for Windows NT 4.0

l

FPS driver for Windows NT 4.0

Printer drivers in the floppy disk are:

l

Standard drivers for Windows 3.1/3.11

l

Standard drivers for Windows 95

Standard drivers are to be installed when your printer is used as a
PCL printer and FPS d rivers are to be installed when your printer is
used as a PostScript printer.

When you are using Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0, it is

recommended that you should install a printer driver using
MarkVision ™

because the printer driver is reinforced with

MarkVision ™ features such as remotely changing settings of a

network printer and checking status of a network printer. For

MarkVision™ , see the next section.

To install a printer driver in Windows 95, note the following:

l

When you install the printer driver, the original OS (CD-ROM or

floppy disks) is required during installation.

l

When MarkVision ™

for Windows 95 may be already installed,

select a printer name followed by (MV) in the Printers window.

When MarkVision™ is not installed, select a printer name not

followed by (MV).
