Windows 95 and 98 Printer Driver Installation and Technical Reference 5
Installing the Printer Driver
The Datacard printer driver for Windows 95 or 98 creates CPX ports. CPX ports are
virtual ports that use your existing COM ports to communicate with your Datacard
printer. No additional hardware is needed. Setting up an additional port in this way
tells Windows to use a software component (called a Port Monitor) for printing to
your Datacard printer.
