Introduction3-2 Setting Up the Printing Environment 3 Introduction After Installing the Printer The following shows the tasks that should be performed after installing the printer: ■Installing the Printer Driver (See p. 3-4) The printer driver is a piece of software that is needed when you are printing from application software. Settings related to printing can be configured using the printer driver. ■Using a computer to share the printer on a network (See p. 3-47) If you share this printer on a network and use it from a computer on the network, you must specify the settings for the computer and install the printer driver on the client computers. Each Time You Print The following shows the tasks that should be performed each time you print: ■Specifying print settings The printer paper size, page size, number of copies, etc. are configured using the printer driver. If these settings are not configured correctly, you will not be able to achieve the expected results. ■Printing Select the printing option from the menu of the application software you are using. As the method for printing varies depending on the application, refer to the individual users manuals of each application. System Requirements In order to use the printer driver, your computer system needs to meet the following requirements: ■Operating system software •Microsoft Windows 98 •Microsoft Windows Me •Microsoft Windows 2000 Server/Professional •Microsoft Windows XP Professional/Home Edition* •Microsoft Windows Server 2003*
Introduction3-3 Setting Up the Printing Environment 3 •Microsoft Windows Vista* *32-bit processor version only -System Requirements (minimum required) (PC/AT Compatibles) *1As the amount of available memory varies depending on the system configuration of the computer or application you are using, the above environment does not guarantee printing in all cases. * 2This indicates free hard disk space required for installing the printer driver and manuals using Easy Installation. Required free hard disk space varies depending on the system environment or installation method. -System Requirements (recommended) ■Interface •USB: USB 2.0 High-Speed (Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista only), USB Full-Speed (USB 1.1 equivalent) NOTE •If you want to use the sounds from the printer driver, a PC synthesizer (and the PCM synthesizer driver) needs to be installed in your computer. Do not use the PC speaker driver (speaker.drv). •This printer uses bidirectional communication. Operation of the printer when connected via unidirectional communication equipment has not been tested. As a result, Canon cannot guarantee printer operation when the printer is connected using unidirectional print servers, USB hubs and switching devices.
