STEP 2
: Install the HP PCL 5e Printer Driver for Microsoft
®
Windows
™
IMPORTANT: Use only the TROY MICR Printing Solutions CD to install the Hewlett-Packard PCL 5e printer
driver designated for your Hewlett-Packard or TROY printer. Some of the steps listed below
and/or software screens may differ slightly in appearance depending on your operating system.
IMPORTANT: If connecting a TROY printer to a print server, load and configure the TROY printer driver on the
print server only. Do not load the printer driver on the local workstation(s). Load only the screen
fonts on local workstation(s), and then “Connect” to the TROY printer attached to the print server.
1. Close all applications before installing the HP PCL 5e printer driver.
2. Insert the TROY MICR Printing Solutions CD into your computer CD drive.
3. Before beginning the installation process, you will need to know the operating
system you are using on your computer. If you already know the operating
system you are using, proceed directly to step #4. If you are not sure, right-click
on My Computer (located on the Windows desktop), and then click on Properties
to view the type of operating system installed on your computer.
4. From the Start menu, click on Settings and then click on Printers.
5. Double-click on Add Printer, click on Next, choose Local Printer, and then click on Next. If you are
using Windows 2000/XP, skip down to Step 11, and then proceed with Steps 6 through 10.
6. From the Add Printer Wizard window, click on Have Disk.
7. From the Install From Disk window, click on Browse.
8. From the Open window, click on the down-arrow in the Drives box to select the CD-ROM drive on
your computer.
9. Double-click on the appropriate folder for the operating system you are using (e.g., Win98, etc.).
10. Double-click on the appropriate subfolder for the model printer you are using (e.g., 8150, 9000). If
applicable for your model of printer, be sure to select either the USB or standard parallel (LPT1) printer.
Click on OK to close the Open window, click on OK to close the Install From Disk window, and then
click on Next to continue the driver installation. You will be given the choice to either replace or keep
the existing driver. It is recommended that you always replace the existing driver.
IMPORTANT: TROY IRD 9000 series printers must use the 4300 printer driver.
11. Select the appropriate printer port from the displayed list (usually LPT1), and then click on Next. The
printer name will be highlighted. For easy printer identification, it is recommended that you change the
highlighted Hewlett-Packard printer name to the name of the TROY MICR Series printer you are
installing (e.g., TROY MICR 9000 Secure EX Printer) by typing over the highlighted printer name.
Click on Finish. If you are using Windows 2000/XP, choose to either share or not share your printer
over the network.
12. Click on Yes to print a text page to verify that your printer driver was installed correctly, and then click
on Next to continue.
13. Click on Finish to complete the installation. The printer driver installation will proceed automatically
and add the printer icon to the printer folder.
