Install drivers for local printing
Step 2: 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.
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.
Drivers are also available in downloadable software packages on our
Lexmark Web site at
