Installing a Printer for Windows 2000
In order to use your printer with your WinBook notebook, you will need
to load the necessary software and drivers for that printer. If your printer
came with an installation disk, you can follow the instructions provided
by the printer manufacturer. If not, you can follow the instructions below:
1. Start the Add Printer Wizard (Start/Settings/Printers and then double-
click on Add New Printer). (Figure 4.14)
2. Once the Add Printer Wizard has started, click Next. (Figure 4.15)
3. Windows 2000 will ask how your printer is attached. If it is a local
printer, click on the radio button beside that choice. If the printer is
Plug and Play, click on the radio button beside that choice. Windows
2000 will detect the printer and install the necessary drivers. If the
printer is not Plug and Play, do not select that radio button. Windows
You do not need to have
a printer physically present
to install the Windows
drivers for it. If you will be using
another printer or might be
transferring information to
another site (such as work or
home) where you will be using
another printer, you can set up
Windows for those printers (so
that files you are working on
can be set up for that printer).
If the printer is one you will be
connecting to your computer,
you will want to set up the
proper port connections for this
printer. If the printer is one you
will be using elsewhere, you
can set up the printer on the
location “File.”
