Drivers and Label Software

Printer drivers are software tools that translate information from an

external system into an acceptable format for the printer. Older DOS-
based systems do not require special drivers. Other systems may use a

generic text driver to communicate with the printer. The companion CD
contains drivers for the Microsoft Windows operating system. You can

also download current drivers from the Cognitive website at

http://www.cognitive.com

.
