B. Installing the
Windows 3.1
Printer Driver
33
PrimeraPro can be used with virtually any
Microsoft Windows 3.1 (or higher) software
application program. If your application program
allows printing, it will more than likely be
compatible with PrimeraPro. Before printing, you
must tell the application that youÕre using a
PrimeraPro. This is accomplished the first time you
use the printer by installing in Windows what is
called a Òprinter driver.Ó The printer driver is
simply a diskette with software on it that gives
PrimeraPro the proper commands it needs in order
to print. After youÕve installed the driver, put the
driver diskette away in a safe place for possible
future use. It is very important to save the original
printer driver diskette which ships with your
printer. This printer driver diskette includes
special print information which is unique to your
specific printer and which may be called for when
updating printer drivers.
NOTE This section of the PrimeraPro OperatorÕs Manual
assumes that you are already familiar with Windows
and know how to move around within Program Groups,
how to use a mouse, and so on. If you are not yet
familiar with Windows, consult the appropriate
Microsoft documentation to become familiar with the
basics of Windows before proceeding.
Use the following procedure to install PrimeraProÕs
Windows printer driver:
1. After starting
Windows, go to the
Main
program group
and select Control
Panel.
2.
From the Control
Panel, select Printers.
