Setting up your printer
Setting up a printer involves selecting a printer driver. This
special program acts as a translator that turns your document
into a form the printer can understand.
If you are using any non-Windows ® programs, set up a printer
driver for each of those programs. Refer to your program’s
documentation for more information.
TECHNICAL NOTE: If you have the manufacturer’s disc that
came with your printer, you can use it to install the printer on
your computer. The manufacturer’s disc may include additional
drivers and fonts.
To set up a printer with the Add Printer Wizard:
1 Click Start and then Printers and Faxes.
The operating system opens the Printers and Faxes window.
