To be able to print using Stylus RIP Professional from computers connected to a network, it is necessary to install a printer driver on each computer on the network.

Windows XP/2000 users

Follow these steps to install the necessary printer driver:

Make sure that Windows is running.

Insert the CD-ROM that shipped with EPSON Stylus RIP Professional 2.0 into the appropriate drive.

The Choose Setup Language dialog box appears automatically. Click Cancel.

Click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers.

Note:
If your computer is running Windows XP, click Start and then click Printers and Faxes.

Double-click the Add Printer icon.

Note:
If your computer is running Windows XP, click Add a printer under Printer Tasks.

The Add Printer Wizard appears. Follow the on-screen instructions until the screen asking you to specify how the printer is connected to the computer is displayed. Select Network Printer, and then click Next.

Note:
If your computer is running Windows XP, select A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer, and then click Next.

Either enter the printer's network path or click Next to browse for the network printer.

Click OK when the following message appears:

"The server on which the XXX printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed."

Note:
The name of the printer appears in stead of "XXX" in the actual message.

When the screen asking you to select the printer model is displayed, click Have Disk and specify the path to the appropriate INF file necessary for installation. If your CD-ROM drive is D:, the path will be D:\ENGLISH\WIN2000-XP\PS_SETUP (change the drive letter as needed for your system).

Select the INF file for the version of the Windows operating system that you are running and continue with the rest of the installation according to the on-screen instructions.

When installation is done, click Finish.
