Printer Driver v
1 Installation
A printer driver is an application that manages communication between a printer
and your computer. Once installed, the printer driver settings must be
configured in the printer Properties and Printing Preferences. There are two
methods of installation. Express Install is a quick way to install a driver and
certain features in package form. With Custom Install, you select from
individual drivers and utilities. In the Product Library window you can also
uninstall drivers and utilities with the Uninstall option.
You can click Maintenance to run certain utilities from the Product Library
window. Click Documents to access the release notes, printing system
operation guide, and other materials. With Upgrade you can update the driver
and utilities to a newer version. Upgrade is only available if there is a product
that needs to be upgraded. (Selections vary according to printing system model,
optional devices, or driver version.)
Note: In Windows operating systems, you must be logged in with
administrator rights to install the printer driver.
Preparing to Install the Driver
This section describes the initial steps to take before you install the printer
driver.
In Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows Vista with a USB connection, a driver
installation can be made from the Microsoft Windows Update site if a certified
driver is available and the system is connected to the web. We recommend you
continue to install the driver from the supplied installation disc for an expanded
feature set. In Windows, if the Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box
appears during the installation process, click Cancel. If the Hardware
Installation warning dialog box appears, click Continue Anyway.
Turn on the computer and the printer.
1
Insert the Product Library disc into the disc drive. The application should start
2
automatically.
Note: If the Product Library fails to start after inserting it into the disc drive,
use Windows Explorer to locate Setup.exe on the local drive and double-click
to open.
The Product Library window appears with the license dialog box. Read the
3
license agreement and then click Accept to proceed.
At the bottom of the Product Library window, select your language from the
4
list.
1-1 User Guide
European Default Duplex
Printing on both sides of a sheet of paper (duplex mode) reduces paper
consumption and helps conserve environmental resources. Duplex mode also
lowers costs by reducing the amount of paper that must be purchased. We
recommend that printing systems capable of duplex printing use duplex mode
by default. This can be set in the printer driver installation process for European
locations only.
After clicking Accept in the license dialog box, if the operating system locale is
EU and time zone is GMT 0, GMT +1 or GMT +2, a message about resource
and energy conservation appears. Read the message, and then click OK.
After installation is successful, an Enable Duplex check box is displayed on the
Finished page. Select the check box to have the driver automatically default to
duplex mode. Exceptions to the default can afterward be made by selecting
options in the driver Quick Print or Basic tabs.
Express Install
Express Install refers to quick device, driver, and utility installation for a USB or
network connection. The installation application discovers printing devices that
are turned on, and connected by USB or network cable. One or more feature
packages can be installed together.
Installation
Installing with Express Install
This section describes the express installation procedure of devices, drivers,
and utilities in Windows operating systems.
If the installer cannot find your printing system, contact your system
administrator.
Note: You must install .NET Framework 4.0 or later to use Status Monitor.
Ensure that your printing system and computer are turned on and connected by
1
USB or network cable.
In the Express Install window, the installer looks for your printing system. Each
2
discovered device is displayed in the device list as an icon with a model name
and location (USB port or IP address).
If your device is discovered, select your model in the device list.
If discovery does not find your device, remove and reinsert the USB or network
cable, and ensure that it is connected properly. Click the circular arrow icon to
refresh the discovery.
You can also find a device by typing a partial or full search term in the search
3
text box above the device list. You can search the discovered devices by model
name, IP address, or USB port. The results are displayed in the device list. If the
search finds your device, select it. Click the x icon to clear the text box, and
return to the list of all discovered devices.
You can select Use host name as port name to use a host name for the
4
Standard TCP/IP port. (Not available with a USB connection.)

driver.
To exit the installer application click Finish.
8
A message may appear if there is a software installation failure. After clicking
Finish, retry the installation. If the same message appears again, contact your
system administrator.
The installation of the printing system is now complete. If prompted, restart your
computer.
Custom Install
Custom Install applies to detailed device, driver, and utility installation for a
USB or network connection. The installer can discover devices that are turned
on, and connected by USB or network cable, or you can manually select your
own printing system model and port name.
When you make a selection in the Custom Install window, it is highlighted with
a blue background. Drag and drop functionality is supported. You can click an
1-3 User Guide
arrow to expand or collapse a selection box. You can install more than one
product from each list, but they must be selected and moved to the Products to
Install list.
In Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows
Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2012 only, the XML Paper Specification
(XPS) driver provides the most efficient method for displaying, processing, and
printing documents.

systems. Managed devices, such as printing systems, collect and store
management information for the network management systems. Using the Auto
Configure feature, SNMP security levels are set. With SNMPv3, encryption,
and authentication support are provided. SNMP settings must be made in the
printer driver and in the printing system’s home page.
The following SNMP options are available:
SNMPv1/v2c
It communicates with the managed device using Read community name
and Write community name.

card has settings for both an authentication password and an encryption
password, but they must both match the driver password.
Authentication
This option provides an algorithm to check that a transferred file has arrived
intact. Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA1) are
hash algorithms used to authenticate packet data.
MD5
This option provides a cryptographic hash function with a 128–bit hash
value.
SHA1
This option produces a message digest that is 160 bits long. SHA1 is the
successor to MD5.
Privacy
This option uses encryption for secure communication. It is available after
