System requirements for Windows 3.1
To use the printer, your computer system must meet these requirements:
m IBM PC or compatible, with an 80386 or higher CPU
m hard disk drive
m at least 4 megabytes (MB) of random-access memory (RAM)
m Microsoft Windows 3.1 or higher or Windows for Workgroups 3.11
or higher
m MS-DOS version 3.3 or higher (5.0 or higher recommended)
m CD-ROM drive or 3.5-inch floppy disk drive that reads 1.44 MB disks
m NetWare requires an 80386 CPU with NetWare version 3.12 or higher
Installing all the printer software requires approximately 3.5 MB of free space
on your hard disk.
Before you begin
Set up the printer as described in Chapter 1, remembering to
m unpack and prepare the printer
m connect the printer to your NetWare network using Ethernet cables or
through a direct parallel connection to a PC.
m plug in and turn on the printer (Keep the startup page that automatically
prints out. It provides the default printer name you need for setup.)
Setting up for DOS-based printing
If you will be printing from DOS applications only, you do not need to install
any of the software that came with the printer. However, to print from a DOS
application, you must first install the DOS PostScript driver if one exists for
your DOS application. The DOS PostScript driver is usually supplied with the
DOS application. Follow your application’s instructions for installation and
printing. See also “DOS Notes” in Chapter 7.
