Topic: Why is my system running slowly?
The system responsiveness varies depending with the number of applications 
that are open and running. Close any applications that you are not currently 
using.
Increasing the system memory may also help. For information on installing 
memory, please see the online VAIO User Guide.
Topic: How do I install a printer?
If your printer has a USB, IEEE1394, or infrared connection, contact the 
printer manufacturer for information or updates that may be required for 
proper installation.
Check the printer manufacturer’s Web site for the latest drivers for your 
operating system before proceeding with installation. Some printers do not 
function properly without the updated drivers for specific operating systems.
To install your printer, follow these steps:
1
Click Start in the Windows taskbar, then click Control Panel.
2
Click Printers and Other Hardware, then click Add a Printer.
3
From the Add Printer Wizard, click Next.
4
Select Local Printer, then click Next.
5
Select the appropriate port, usually LPT1, and then click Next.
6
Select the appropriate printer manufacturer and model
7
Follow the onscreen instructions to print a test page and complete printer 
installation.
Place a check mark in the box for “Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play 
printer”, if you are installing a recently manufactured printer with Plug and Play 
capability.
If the printer is not included in the list and the printer manufacturer included a disk 
with a Windows XP Printer driver, choose Have Disk, enter the appropriate path for the 
disk or CD and click OK.
If the printer is not included on the list and no drivers are included with the printer, 
choose an alternate printer driver that your printer may emulate. Refer to the manual 
that came with your printer for specific emulation information.
