Installing Printer Driver Updates

Occasionally, new Printer Driver versions are released which have new or updated features.
Before installing an updated Printer Driver version, always delete the existing Printer Driver
version from the system.

Step Procedure

1

To do this, select Start, Programs and point to the Card Printer folder. Then,
select the Uninstall Printer Driver icon for the specific Printer model.

2

Once the existing Printer Driver is deleted, the updated version can be installed.
The best way to get Printer Driver updates is to download them from the
reseller's or the Printer manufacturer's website. The following instructions explain
how to download and install updated Printer Drivers.

Downloading Printer Driver files

The downloadable Printer Driver files have names ending in .exe and are self-extracting
PKZip archives. A PKZip archive is a package, containing one or more files, that has been
zipped to make it smaller and provide easy downloading of numerous files simultaneously.
An archive that is self-extracting is capable of unzipping itself.

Step Procedure

1

Download the latest Printer Driver version by clicking on the Printer Driver's
highlighted .exe file name on the web site.

2

Save this program to the disk when you are prompted to do so.

3

Click the OK button, then choose the folder in which you would like to save the
Printer Driver file. (Note: You may wish to save it in an empty folder to prevent
mingling its files with others already on the computer.)

4

Once the file has completely downloaded to the computer, unzip the contents of
the file by simply double-clicking on it. (Note: The archive will unzip itself,
revealing its contents as a new list of files within the folder.)
