Installing Printer Drivers

Windows 3.x

The Printer Drivers that come with the IP-411 Print Controller are actually software programs that enable
you to control all the printing settings for the selected printer.

Before you can print from your application (e.g., spreadsheet or word processor), the appropriate printer
driver must be installed on your computer system.

Installing Printer Drivers is a simple procedure that includes the following:

• Installing a specific printer driver
• Assigning a port to the printer
• Specifying settings for your printer (optional)
• Setting the default printer
