Print Driver for Windows

NT 4.0 allows users to print directly from Windows

applications to the EP-1000 printer over a network.

This document describes the procedure to install the

EP-1000 Print Driver on Windows NT.

The installation of the EP-1000 Print Driver is unlike

most other print drivers, so be sure to follow the steps

in this document carefully. The installation steps are

summarized below:

1. Unzip the self-extracting archive file. This will

automatically create the special EP-1000 printer

port and allow you to set the printer’s IP address.

2. Add Printer Wizard will automatically launch. Add

the printer as a local

printer on the special port,

EPR1

3. Manually launch the network module

configuration tool to set the IP address at the

printer.

4. Select Parallel

interface at the printer. (The network

interface module connects to the parallel port)

Release Notes

The currently released Windows driver requires the

Network Interface Module and does not work with a

direct connection to the Parallel or USB Ports.

Preparation

The following items are required to complete this

installation procedure:

◆ An EP-1000 printer with a loaded paper cassette

and a ribbon installed. A or A4 size paper can be

used.

◆ An Ethernet connection between the host PC and

the Network Interface Module on the EP-1000.

◆ The EP-1000 Windows Print Drivers CD.

◆ The host PC administrator password. Contact your

system administrator if help is needed.

Configuring the EP-1000

The following instructions describe how to configure

the EP-1000 printer for proper operation with the

Windows NT 4.0 Operating System.

1. Unpack the EP-1000. Unpack the EP-1000

according to the instructions shipped with the

printer. Remove all retaining clips, plastic wrap,

tape and foam.

2. Connect the EP-1000 to the PC. Connect the EP-

1000 printer to a PC with Ethernet using the

Network Interface Module. The recommended PC

configuration is at least a 500MHz Pentium III class

processor, 256MB of memory and 10 MB of free

disk space.

3. Load media into the EP-1000. The EP-1000 imager

must have media loaded and the top cover closed

before sending any print jobs to the imager. Load

A-size or A4-size ChromaVista® paper into the

cassette as shown in the User’s Manual, and insert

the cassette into the printer. Be sure there is a

ribbon installed.

4. Power-on the printer. After the printer has been

connected to the PC and media has been loaded,

power-on the printer and connect the Network

Interface Module using the provided transformer.

Wait for the front panel indicators to show

POWER

and

MEDIA with steady green lights. This will take

about 10 seconds. If the printer is cold, the power-

on time will be longer.

Windows Driver Installation

The Windows NT 4.0 Print Driver is distributed on a

CD-ROM as a single file named

EP1000_WinDriver.exe. This file will automatically

unzip the necessary driver files into a temporary

directory and start the Windows “Add Printer

Wizard.” The following instructions describe the print

driver installation procedure.

Note: The EP-1000 power should be turned off

before connecting any cables or external devices to

the printer.
