About printer driver
Printer Driver is a section of your software that automatically translates instructions from the
software to your printer.
For example, when using some application software, if you want to boldface or underline
a
word, the printer driver automatically translates your specific boldface or underline
instruction
on your application software to printer control command.
Different printers use different control codes for designating print styles. Therefore, it is
important that when you install your software, you select the appropriate printer driver
designed for your printer.
When WINDOWS 3.1, WINDOWS NT 4.0, or WINDOWS 95, 98 is used, please install the
Printer Driver in the attached Floppy Disk to WINDOWS.
When this printer in the MS-DOS or other environment, such as UNIX or OS/2, proceed as
follows.
