Precautions Taken When Installing Printer Driver

To ensure smooth completion of your printer driver installation process, you must take some precautions. These precautions may seem simple, but ignoring them will surely obstruct the installation process.

• Printer drivers may ask for your permission to make changes to your computer. Give that permission immediately as it’s necessary for proper installation.
• Always download your printer driver from a verified source. However, if despite doing that you get a Windows Security screen error that your publisher is unverified, then ignore that error and proceed with the installation as usual.
• Windows Firewall may block your printer driver from accessing vital information on your computer. In that case, you should remove the Windows Firewall block if the driver requests for it.
• If your printer driver gives you the option to upgrade the existing printer driver installed on your computer, then you should use this option.
