3.1 Driver Installation Instructions
Start the installation process by inserting the Driver CD into the computer; then, follow the Installaware
Wizard screen prompts.
Step Procedure
1
Select “Install the Printer Driver” to start the driver installation.
2
Select the FARGO Workbench Utility Program to install the Diagnostic program.
3
Select Swift ID™ to install the Swift ID (Embedded Badging Application software) and
follow the Installaware Wizard on-screen prompts.
4
All versions of Windows require Administrator rights.
5
From the Printer & Faxes, select Printing Preferences to setup the printer driver after it
has been installed.
6
Use the drop down arrows to select the correct options for each printing preference.
7
Check Enable Swift ID over a USB connection: to use Swift ID via a USB connection.
• When this box is checked, the Ethernet connection (if applicable) to the printer will
not be operational.
• If this selection is not accessible, this is because the HID EEM Driver that Swift ID
uses to connect via a USB connection has not been installed.
• This driver can be found on the installation CD or it can be downloaded from the HID
Global support page.
• The easiest method for enabling Swift ID is to uninstall the printer and its components
and reinstall the printer with Swift ID selected.
