Setup & Maintenance / Setting Up Your Printer on a Network

Installing the Printer Driver from the CD-ROM

This section describes how to install the printer driver in the clients when setting the network system as follows:

• Additional drivers are not installed in the Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0 printer server.

• The printer server's operating system is Windows Me, 98, or 95, and the client's operating system is Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0.

The screen shots on the following pages may differ from those that appear on your screen, depending on the version of the Windows operating system that you are using.

Note:

If you are installing the printer driver is a Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0 client, you must access Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0 as the Administrator.

If additional drivers are installed or the computers of the server and clients use the same OS, you do not have to install the printer drivers from the CD-ROM.

Follow these steps to install the printer driver directly from the CD-ROM:

Access the shared printer and a prompt may appear. Click OK, and then follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer driver from the CD-ROM.

Insert the CD-ROM, then type the appropriate drive and folder names in which the printer driver for clients is located, then click OK.

If you are installing drivers in Windows XP or 2000, "Digital Signature is not found." may appear. Click Yes (Windows 2000) or Continue Anyway (Windows XP) and continue installing.

The folder name differs depending on the operating system being used.

Select the name of the printer, then click OK. Then follow the on-screen instructions.
