present for your safety.

First aid

Always obtain first aid or medical attention immediately after an injury.

Never neglect an injury, no matter how slight it seems.

Resuscitation

Begin resuscitation immediately if someone is injured and stops

breathing. Any delay could result in death. To work on or near high voltage, you should

be familiar with approved industrial first aid methods.

from energized equipment can cause death. If you must perform authorized emergency

work on energized equipment, be sure that you comply strictly with approved safety

Downloading and Installing Software

Downloading and Installing Software

1-3

Use the information in this chapter to become familiar with the installation process

and to download and install the necessary printer drivers and utilities to your IPL or

Direct Protocol (DP) EasyCoder printer.

Getting Ready

Before you download and install the printer drivers and software utilities, complete the

following tasks:

•Select a print protocol.

•Remove old Intermec printer drivers from your PC hard drive.

•Set IPL printer label parameters. (Direct Protocol printer parameters are set later.)

Select a Printing Protocol

Before you use the procedures in this guide, you must select your printing protocol. The

two protocols are:

•NetBIOS/NetBEUI

•LPR (TCP/IP)

Unless you are very familiar with your network, you should consult with your network

administrator to determine the most appropriate printing protocol. Generally, you will

select the NetBIOS/NetBEUI printing protocol if your network does not require IP

addresses and you will select the LPR (TCP/IP) printing protocol if IP addresses are

required.

For more information, see “Printing Protocols” in the Appendix.

Remove Old Intermec Drivers

Before you download the new InterDriverprinter drivers, you must clear any old

Intermec printer drivers from your hard drive. For help, see “Deleting Intermec Printer

Drivers From Your PC” in the Appendix.

Note: Do not skip this step. If you try to copy over existing InterDriver printer drivers,

you may inadvertently cause problems with your Microsoft Windows operating system.

Set IPL Printer Label Parameters

EasyCoderprinters that use Intermec Printer Language (IPL) are identified by one of

the following model numbers: 3240, 3400, 3440, 3600, 4400, 4420, 4440, 4830, or

7421.

Before you add your IPL printer to Windows, you must use PrintSetto configure the

printer label parameters. Because your IPL printer does not have bidirectional

Installing EasyCoder Printers in Microsoft Windows Guide

1-4

communication with your PC and Windows, these tasks must be done while the printer

is connected directly to your PC and not via the network. After sending the label

parameters to the printer, you can complete the network connection and add the printer

to Windows.

To set IPL printer label parameters

1. Connect your EasyCoder printer to your PC using a serial cable.

2. Ensure that PrintSet has been loaded on your PC. If not, locate the PrintSet

application either at our Web site at www.Intermec.com or on the Printer

Companion CD that was shipped with your printer. Follow the PrintSet installation

instructions.

3. Start PrintSet on your PC.

4. From PrintSet's main menu, select Configuration.

5. Open each of the configuration options and verify that the default setting is suitable

for your IPL printer or make the necessary changes.

6. When you have completed the configuration, click on the Send Cfg to Ptr icon or

select Send to Printer from the Data Xfer menu option.

7. Disconnect the serial cable and complete the physical connection to your Ethernet

network.

Installing Printer Drivers and Utilities

Now that you have completed the steps to prepare your PC and EasyCoder printer to

receive the new drivers and utilities, you are ready to download and install them.

The following printer drivers and utilities are available on the Internet or on your Printer

Companion CD (shipped with your printer).
