STEP 3
Install Printer/Scanner Drivers
The supplied Printer/Scanner Drivers and Utilities CD contains the software that
enables the printer and computer to communicate. Printer drivers, for example, are programs
that control print output on the device, so when you print a document, the driver sends the data
to the printer using the correct commands.
Important: If you do not have the printer’s software CD, you can download the files from Ricoh’s
website (www.ricoh-usa.com/downloads). Also see Appendix C: Printer Driver Download.
