Downloading

The downloadable printer driver files have names ending in ".exe" and are selfextracting
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.

• To download the latest printer driver version, click on the printer driver's highlighted ".exe"

file name on the web site. You will then be prompted to "Save this program to disk."

• Click

OK, then choose the folder in which you would like to save the printer driver file.

You may wish to save it in an empty folder to prevent mingling its files with others already
on your computer.

• Once the file has completely downloaded to your 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.)
