      • Port Name: this will be auto-filled.
      • Un-check the Query the printer and automatically select the driver to use checkbox.5.PNG
    • You may be told that additional port information is required. Click Next.
    • Select Your printer model and click the Next button.                                7.png
      • If you can't find the printer model, click the Windows Update button. In a few minutes the available selection of printer models will be much larger.
      • If you still can’t find the printer model, you will have to browse your computer to find it manually:
        • Click Have Disk
        • Click the Browse button
        • Navigate to the folder you saved your driver in (if you chose the automatic destination, it should be in a folder with the printer manufacturer name, such as Xerox)
        • Click on the driver file and click open
        • Click OK
        • Now you should see the printer model. Select it and click Next.
      • If this manual process is unsuccessful, you may have installed your driver incorrectly. Be sure to restart your computer after install, as this is important to complete the process. Also try a manual install of the driver itself if the automatic install does not seem to work (follow the instructions above to do so).
    • If the installer detects that the driver is already installed, select Replace the current driver and click Next.8.PNG
    • Name the printer Your printer name and click Next.                                      9.PNG
    • If the option exists, select Do not share this printer and click Next.10.PNG
    • Rather than clicking the Print a test page button, complete the printer installation procedure and print a document you need as not to waste paper.
    • Click Finish.                                                                                                     11.png
