Windows 2000

This describes how to install the printer driver to the computer with Windows 2000 installed, using IEEE 1394 (SCSI print).

Important

  • If [Found New Hardware Wizard] appears every time the computer is started or the cable is connected, disable the device. To install another printer driver after setting the “1394_00n” port, click [1394_00] as a port during the printer driver installation.

  • Installing this printer driver requires Administrators permission. Log on using an account that has Administrators permission.

  • The optional 1394 interface unit can be used only with Service Pack 1 (SP1) or higher.

1Connect the machine to the computer using the IEEE 1394 interface cable.

2Click [Next >] in the [Found New Hardware Wizard] dialog box.

3When the message “This wizard will complete the installation for this Device: Unknown” appears, click [Specify a location], and then click [Next >].

4When the message “Locate Driver Files” appears, select the [Optional search locations.] check box, and then click [Specify a location], and then click [Next >].

5Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

  • If Auto Run starts, click [Cancel], and then [Exit].

  • To disable Auto Run, press the left [Shift] key when inserting the CD-ROM into the drive and keep it pressed until the computer finishes reading from the CD-ROM.

6Click [Browse].

7Select the printer driver you want to use.

If the CD-ROM drive is D, the source files of the printer driver are stored in the following location:

  • RPCS

    D:\DRIVERS\RPCS\WIN2K_XP\(Language)\DISK1

  • PCL 5c (for color printing)

    D:\DRIVERS\PCL5C\WIN2K_XP\(Language)\DISK1

  • PCL 5e (for B & W printing)

    D:\DRIVERS\PCL5E\WIN2K_XP\(Language)\DISK1

  • PCL 6

    D:\DRIVERS\PCL6\WIN2K_XP\(Language)\DISK1

  • PostScript 3 (“Scanner Driver and Utilities” CD-ROM)

    D:\DRIVERS\PS\WIN2K_XP\(Language)\DISK1

8Click [Open].

9Click [OK].

10Follow the on-screen instructions.

When installation is complete, the printer connected to “1394_00n” appears in the [Printers] window: (“n” shows the number of printers connected.)

If the printer driver has already been installed, the printer icon is added to the [Printers] window. In this case, printer driver installation is not necessary.

If printing does not work properly after the installation, delete the port and reinstall the printer driver. For details, see Trouble Shooting

Note

  • If you do not want to install the printer when Found New Hardware Wizard starts under an operating system that supports SCSI print, disable the device by following the procedure below.

    1. When the [Found New Hardware Wizard] dialog box appears, click [Next >].

    2. When the message “This wizard will complete the installation for this Device: Unknown” appears, select the [Search for a suitable driver for my device [recommended]] check box, and then click [Next >].

    3. When the message “Please choose your search and installation option.” appears, clear all check boxes from [Search for the best driver in these locations.], and then click [Next >].

    4. When the message “Driver Files Search Results” appears, select the [Disable the device. The Add/Remove Hardware Wizard in the control Panel can be able to complete the driver installations.] check box, and then click [Finish].
