This section explains the procedures for installing the EPSON Stylus RIP Professional 2.0 on computers running the Windows operating system.
 |
Note:
|
 | -
Before installing Stylus RIP Professional, it is necessary to connect the printer you want to use and install EPSON Standard Windows Driver. For instructions on how to install the driver, refer to your printer manual.
|
|
 | -
Stylus RIP Professional uses the port set by EPSON Standard Windows Driver. For example, if the port of the print destination using EPSON Standard Windows Driver is "LPT1," Stylus RIP Professional automatically uses "LPT1" to print. Therefore, when installing EPSON Standard Windows Driver, set the port of the print destination to match the printer you are using with Stylus RIP Professional.
