Install drivers for local printing The printer driver is software that lets your computer communicate with your printer. The procedure to install drivers depends on the operating system you are using. Use the following table to find driver installation instructions for your particular operating system. If you need additional help, refer to the documentation that shipped with your computer and your software. Operating system Go to page... Windows Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, 1 Windows XP, Windows 98/Me, Windows NT 4.x Windows 95 and Windows 98 (first edition) 2 Serial printing 2 Macintosh 2 UNIX/Linux 3 Windows Some Windows operating systems may already include a printer driver that is compatible with your printer. This may mean that installation will seem automatic in later versions of Windows. System printer drivers work well for simple printing, but they contain less functionality than our enhanced custom printer driver. Note: Installing a custom driver will not replace the system driver. A separate printer object will be created and appear in the Printers folder. Use the drivers CD that shipped with your printer to install the custom printer driver and obtain all the enhanced printer features and functionality. Using Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, and Windows NT 1 Insert the drivers CD. If the CD does not auto launch, click Start à Run, and then type D:\Setup.exe in the Run dialog box. Note: USB support is not available for Windows NT operating systems. 2 Click Install Software.
