Setup Disk Creation Tool (Windows Only)
The Setup Disk Creation Tool program located in the
MakeDisk
folder of the
Utilities
folder on the
Software Pack
CD-ROM
and the print driver located on the
Software Pack CD-ROM
are used to create driver installation packages that contain custom driver settings. A driver installation package can contain a group of saved print driver settings and other data such as:
•
• Print orientation and multiple-up (document settings)
Output color (graphic settings)
If you want to install the print driver with the same settings on multiple computers running on the same operating system, create a setup disk in a media or in a server on the network. Using the setup disk that you have created will reduce the amount of work required when installing the print driver.
•
• Install the print driver for your printer on the computer on which the setup disk is to be created.
The setup disk can only be used on the operating system on which the disk was created or computers running the same operating system. Create a separate setup disk for each of the operating systems.
