assigned and verified the TCP/IP settings, you are ready to
install the software on each computer on the network.

You can install the printer software using the typical or custom
method.

and powered on. For details about connecting to the
network, see the supplied printer’s User’s Guide.

then Run. Type X:\Setup.exe, replacing “X” with the
letter which represents your drive and click OK.
