Printer driver installatie

Er zijn twee manieren om verbinding met de printer te maken: USB of netwerk (ethernet LAN)

USB Connection: Automatic Installation #

1. The printer driver is available through the Windows Update Catalog and will be installed automatically when you connect the printer to your computer using a USB cable (with the printer powered on).
2. Allow Windows 1–2 minutes to complete this process. Once finished, the printer driver will be installed and ready to use immediately.

The following is required for proper operation:

• Internet access.
• Sufficient user account permissions to install USB devices and allow automatic driver downloads through Windows Update.

USB Connection: Manual Installation (Optional) #

3. In Windows Explorer, extract the .ZIP file.
4. In Windows Explorer, browse to the extracted folder and run Setup.exe.
5. Follow the installation wizard and select the desired language and unit of measurement.
6. Select the Recommended for USB installation option and then click Next.
7. Wait 30 seconds after the installation has completed.

Network Connection: Share Printer via Active Directory. #

Additional information for system administrators:

The printer communicates with only one computer or server at a time while processing a print job. Once the print job has been completed, the printer port becomes available again for other connections.

Communication with the printer takes place over port 9100 (print jobs) and port 9101 (supply information).

Install the printer on a Windows Server with the Print Server role enabled to create a shared print queue for the printer.

1. Share the printer in Active Directory.
2. Disable the Render print jobs on client computers (Client-Side Rendering) option.
3. Install this shared printer queue on the end users’ computers.

Printer Driver Update: Automatic. #

When we upload a new version of the printer driver to the Windows Update Catalog through Microsoft’s WHQL/HLK program, your printer driver will automatically be updated at a later time.

Because registering and completing the Microsoft WHQL/HLK certification tests is a time-consuming process, we only do this periodically.

If you would like to install the latest version of the printer driver sooner, follow the instructions below to update the printer driver manually.

Printer Driver Update: Manual. #

1. Download the latest version of the printer driver: download
   Or download the latest Microsoft-signed version of the printer driver (WHQL/HLK): download
2. In Windows Explorer, extract the .ZIP file.
3. In Windows Explorer, browse to the extracted folder and run Setup.exe.
4. Follow the installation wizard and select the desired language and unit of measurement.
5. Select the Update Driver (keep current printer port and settings) option and then click Next.
6. Wait 30 seconds for the installation to complete.
7. The printer driver has now been updated. In most cases, restarting the computer is not necessary.
8. Optional step for Windows Server administrators: This is only required after upgrading the printer driver of a shared printer (print queue) on a Windows Server.
   After upgrading the server, perform the following steps on the client computers:
   Right-click the shared printer queue and select Update Driver.
   Otherwise, the first print job may fail because the printer driver on the client computer is not updated immediately. The driver must be updated first before printing can continue.
