Use the USB cable to connect the printer and computer, and then switch on the power of the FUJIFILM

ASK-400 printer. After the printer is recognized, installation of the driver starts.

*For information on the connection, refer to the User Guide of the printer.

In Windows 7, if driver installation starts, the following message appears in the taskbar: “Installing

device driver software”.

In Windows 10, this message does not appear. Proceed to page 8.

Figure 1.3.1 Driver installation message

If you click on this message, the Install driver software screen appears and displays the installation

status of the driver. If Close is clicked, this screen closes.

Figure 1.3.2 Installing the driver software

*About the “Skip obtaining driver software from Windows Update” option

If your operating system is configured to obtain driver software from Windows Update, it may take time

for installation to complete because the process searches for drivers from Windows Update first. You

can reduce the time until the completion of installation by choosing to skip obtaining driver software

from Windows Update. (Depending on your operating system, it may take some time until installation is

complete.)

From the Driver Software Installation dialog box, click “Skip obtaining driver software from Windows

Update”.

message is not displayed.)
