Dell 1110 Laser Mono Printer - Manual (Page 33)

Software Overview

them. The Drivers and Utilities CD contains the following:
l Dell Printer Driver– allows your computer to communicate with your printer. To use your printer as a printer in Windows, you must install the printer

System™ window also displays the level of toner remaining and allows you to order replacement toner cartridges.
