Using Windows Me With a USB or Parallel Cable

NOTE: Depending on the software and printers already installed on your computer, your screens may

vary from those in the instructions.

If you are connecting the printer using a USB cable, you must install both a USB port driver and
a custom print driver.

Wizard
screen appeared on your computer screen.

If you are using a USB cable, the Wizard automatically searches for the USB driver on the
CD and installs it.

If you are using a parallel cable, skip to step 3.

After the USB port driver is found, click Finish.

3

Select Automatic search for the best driver (recommended), and then click Next.

The wizard searches for a printer driver.

dkaay2da.inf

from the list on the screen (where D is the drive letter of your CD), and

then click OK.
