A message prompting you to insert the provided CD-ROM appears.

4Insert the provided CD-ROM into the computer's CD-ROM drive.

The printer driver search begins, and a list of printer drivers appears.

5Select the printer driver you want to use, and then click [Next].

If the [Windows can't verify the publisher of this driver software] message appears, click [Install this driver software anyway].

Note

  • To disable Auto Run, press the [Shift] key when inserting the CD-ROM into the drive and keep it pressed until the computer finishes reading from the CD-ROM.

  • The number after “USB” varies depending on the number of printers connected.

  • The USB port is available only for the printer driver that is installed first. To install additional drivers for this printer, install them using other ports (such as LPT1). Then, after the installation, change the port settings to the specified USB port.
