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.

For easy printer identification, it is recommended that you change the highlighted Hewlett-Packard printer name to the name of the TROY printer you are installing (e.g., TROY MICR 4200 Secure EX Printer) by typing over the highlighted printer name. If you want to use this printer as your default printer, be sure to select this printer as the default printer. If you are using Windows 2000/XP, choose to either share or not share your printer over the network.
14. Click on Yes to print a test page to verify that your printer driver was installed correctly, and then click on Next to continue.

STEP 3: Install the TROY
NOTE: The Hewlett-Packard PCL 5e printer driver must be installed on the host computer prior
to loading the TROY support files.
Support Files for Microsoft® Windows
™
The TROY metrics file contains the required escape sequences that are used to “call” the TROY security and/or barcode fonts installed in the TROY Security Printing Solution (via the TROY MICR DIMM). When properly installed, the TROY metrics file will be associated with the PCL 5e printer driver used by your TROY printer to enable printing of the actual fonts installed in the printer. By associating the metrics file with the printer driver, the TROY TrueType screen fonts will be automatically replaced with the actual TROY fonts at print time. If the TROY metrics file is not properly installed, then the TROY TrueType screen fonts will print instead of the actual TROY installed printer fonts.
Install the TROY Metrics File for Windows™ 98, ME, 2000/NT4.0, XP
1. Close all applications before installing the TROY Font support files.
2. Insert the TROY Security Printing Solutions CD into your computer CD-ROM drive.

6. Within the Other Options category, click on the More button. Some printer driver versions may not display the Other Options category. If this is the case, simply skip to the next step.
7. Within the Fonts category, place a check mark in the Font DIMMs check-box, and then click on the Configure button (with some printer driver software versions, the Configure button may already be “clicked”). A new window will open labeled Configure Font DIMMs.
8. Click on the Add button to open the Add Font DIMM window.
9. Click on the Browse button to open a Windows Explorer-style window. Click on the down-arrow in the Drives box to select the CD-ROM drive on your computer.

10. Click on the file (located in the left-hand window) named TroySEC.hpd or TroySECINTL.hpd (for International customers), and then click on Open or OK (the displayed window may vary depending on the operating system being used). With some printer drivers, the Add Font DIMM window will appear. If this window appears, click on OK to close the window.
