Note:
The file “readme.txt” on the floppy disk contains any late-breaking information

Setting up the printer in Windows 95
To use the printer with Windows 95, you need to install a file known as the
printer driver onto your computer. This file is supplied on the floppy disk that
comes with the printer.
The following description assumes that you are using a mouse (“click” and
“double-click” refer to the action of using the mouse to point at an item with the
on-screen pointer, and then clicking either once, or twice in quick succession).
To install the printer driver under Windows 95, use the following steps:
Turn on the printer and start up your computer.
Click on the Start button in the bottom lefthand corner of the screen.
Select Settings.
Release the mouse button on Printers.
Double-click on the Add Printer icon in the Printers window.
Click on the Next button.
