A. Installing the
Windows Printer
Driver

The Color ID Card Printer can be used with
virtually any Microsoft Windows 3.1x or Windows
95 software application program. Before printing,
you must tell the application that youÕre using the
Color ID Card Printer. 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 the printer 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.

NOTE

This section of the Operator’s Manual assumes that you
are already familiar with Windows and know how it
operates. If you are not yet familiar with Windows,
consult the appropriate Microsoft documentation to
become familiar with the basics of Windows before
proceeding.

Windows 95

To install the printer driver into Windows 95, refer
to the following:

1.

Insert the printer driver diskette into your

computerÕs disk drive.

2.

Click the Start button, point to Settings, and

select Printers.

3.
