This chapter explains how to install and configure the software that is required for the 
printer and scanner functions of the machine. The procedure for viewing the Online 
Manual is also explained.

The CD-ROM that accompanies the machine contains the following software:

The printer driver enables you to use the printer function of the machine.
The printer driver includes the Print Status Window. This is a utility that monitors 
the machine and informs you of the printing status, the name of the document 
currently being printed, and error messages.
Please note that the Print Status Window does not operate when the machine is 
used as a network printer.

The scanner driver allows you to use the scanning function of the machine with 
TWAIN-compliant and WIA-compliant applications.

Sharpdesk is an integrated software environment that makes it easy to manage 
documents and image files, and launch applications.

Button Manager allows you to use the scanner menus on the machine to scan a document.

• The screen images in this manual are mainly for Windows XP. With 

other versions of Windows, some screen images may be different 
from those in this manual.

• Where "AL-XXXX" appears in this manual, please substitute the 

name of your model for "XXXX". For the name of your model, see the 
operation panel on the machine.

• This manual refers to the CD-ROM that accompanied the machine 

simply as "CD-ROM".

The scanning feature can only be used with computers that are running 
Windows 98/Me/2000/XP and are connected to the machine by a USB 
cable. If you are running Windows 95/NT 4.0 or are connected to the 
machine by a LAN connection, only the printer function can be used.

Check the following hardware and software requirements in order to install the 
software.

USB 2.0 driver for Windows 2000 Professional/XP that Microsoft provides through its 
"Windows Update" is installed.

*1Windows 98/Me does not support USB 2.0. A USB 2.0 connection can be used in 

Windows 98/Me, however, the performance will be the same as USB 1.1. The print 
speed based on USB 2.0 specifications can only be attained if your computer is running 
Windows 2000/XP, you are using a cable that supports USB 2.0 (USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 
certified), and the cable is connected to a USB 2.0 port on your computer. If the 
connection is made through a hub, the hub must support USB 2.0.

the CD-ROM icon.

• If you need to use a different connection method after installing the 

software using a USB or network connection, you must first uninstall 
the software (p.79) and then install it using the new connection 
method.

• In the following explanations it is assumed that the mouse is 

configured for right hand operation.

• The scanner feature only works when using a USB cable.
• If an error message appears, follow the instructions on the screen to 

solve the problem. After the problem is solved, the installation 
procedure will continue. Depending on the problem, you may have to 
click the "Cancel" button to exit the installer. In this case, reinstall the 
software from the beginning after solving the problem.
