3.2 Plug & Play
Plug & Play capable printers can be recognised automatically at
parallel ports, USB-IEEE 1394- or infra-red connections but the last
both are not important for our printers.
The following table shows the Plug & Play capability of the different
operating systems.

The table above shows that USB provides the recognition during the
connection in current operating mode, the so-called Hot-Plug & Play.
Depending on the operating system, for the parallel interface the
different possibilities are given:
Windows 95 / 98 / Me
Printers can be recognized during the starting procedure of
Windows or by the Search for new hardware by means of the
hardware wizard.
Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / 7
Printers can be recognized during the starting procedure of
Windows or by the Search for new hardware by means of the
hardware wizard or if the option 'Automatic recognition and
installation of Plug&Play printer' and/or 'Search automatically for
new hardware components and install' is activated.
NOTICE!
If a driver is installed outside of the Plug & Play
recognition, Windows reports at each restart that a new
printer was found. In this case, the driver is to be
installed anew by the Wizard. If the driver is certified for
Windows, the reinstallation is executed automatically.
NOTICE!
Windows NT 4.0 does not support USB devices. However,
some distributors offer drivers that support USB (without Plug
& Play). Such a driver which suits to our printer is offered from
BSQUARE.
