This section provides information about installing the Card Printer Driver on a PC running a
supported Windows operating system. Refer to “Supported Operating Systems” on page 1 and
the printer's Installation and Administrator's Guide for complete information about installation
requirements.
You can install the driver either from the CD that ships with the printer or from a downloaded file.
Most of the installation process is the same whether you install from a downloaded file or from
the CD.
Download the Installation File (Optional)
You typically install the Card Printer Driver using the CD shipped with the printer. However, if you
do not have access to the installation CD, you can install the driver from the downloaded Card
Printer Driver installation file.
Obtain the downloaded driver installation file on a portable storage medium and save it to your
hard drive.
Or, download the current version of the installation file from the website:
