operating systems
More recent Windows operating systems automatically detect the printer when it is connected
via the USB interface. Depending on the hardware configuration and the Windows version,
your printer may be Plug-and-Play (PnP) detected when connecting to the USB, parallel, or
serial port interfaces. The printer drivers do not support serial port PnP installation at this
time.The printer’s PC interface configuration for the parallel port must support and have
bidirectional communications for PnP operations.

restart of the operating system. Ignore the new device detected warnings and close the Task bar
prompts. Wait several seconds for the operating system to match the printer to the driver
software. The warnings will quit and the printer now should be ready to begin printing.
