This driver should replace all earlier versions available from NEC. NECPNSER DRV Windows 3.0 Pinwriter driver NECPNSER HLP Help file for Windows 3.0 Pinwriter driver This printer driver is supplied for use with Microsoft Windows 3.0, and will function correctly only when used with an NEC 24-pin Pinwriter. If your printer is a color model, or has a color option kit installed, full color output is available. INSTALLATION Follow the procedure for installing any new printer via the control panel. Select the ADD PRINTER option from the printer menu of Control Panel, go down the list of available printers until UNLISTED PRINTER shows. Type INSTALL, and double click on the name of the drive containing this diskette. Double click on the filename NECPNSER.DRV and the printer driver will then be copied to the subdirectory \SYSTEM of your Windows directory. The NEC 24-pin option is then selectable from the list of INSTALLED PRINTERS. Please note that the NEC driver has been written to provide online help on request. Control Panel does not copy the help file, so you will need to copy it manually if you wish to make use of help. You can do this by copying the file NECPNSER.HLP to the subdirectory \SYSTEM of your Windows directory. Do this in File Manager, or from DOS as follows (assuming the driver diskette is in drive A: and Windows is in directory C:\WINDOWS): COPY A:NECPNSER.HLP C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM SETUP Click on the NEC 24-pin followed by the CONFIGURE button. Select a suitable port, and then click on SETUP. At this point, you are in the NEC Pinwriter driver setup menu. First select OPTIONS, and then set the PRINTER TYPE to your model. There are many other options available to you, which are explained fully in the online help.
