Installing printer and software for local printing using Windows

Note: Some Windows operating systems require that you have administrative access to install printer
software (drivers) on the computer.
3Click Agree to accept the license agreement.

The Suggested option is the default installation for local setup. If you need to install utilities, change
settings, or customize device drivers, select Custom. Follow the instructions on the computer screen.
5 Select Local Attach, and click Finish.
Note: It may take a few minutes for the drivers to completely load.
6 Close the drivers CD installer application.
7 Connect the USB cable. Be sure to match the USB symbol on the cable to the USB symbol on the printer.
Note: Only Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003
operating systems support USB connections. Some UNIX, Linux, and Macintosh computers also
support USB connections. See the computer operating system documentation to see if your system
supports USB.
8 Plug one end of the printer power cord into the socket at the back of the printer and the other end into a
properly grounded outlet.

done in step 1 should satisfy the plug and play requirements. When plug and play is finished, a printer
object will appear in your Printers folder.
