Printer Setup for Windows
The TW100-BRF114U provides printing support for 2 methods for printing from Windows:
Print Port Driver.
After installing the Print Port Driver, Windows users can print di-
rectly to the TW100-BRF114U Print jobs are spooled (queued) on each PC.
The supplied Print Port Driver supports Windows 95/98, Windows ME, Windows NT4.0,

can be managed using the standard Windows Server tools.

The following procedure is for all versions of Windows (95/98/ME, NT4.0, 2000, XP). The
Windows "Add Printer" screens will vary depending on your version or Windows, but the
procedure is the same:

cally, run SETUP.EXE in the root folder.

Select Components
screen, select the
Print Port Driver
option.
