=========================
To use this fax driver with software applications that operate
with Microsoft Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista, use the following 
installation procedure.

Note
----
* If you use a SMB (NetBIOS network) printer as a shared printer on the server 
  PC, use the Add Printer Wizard, and select "Network printer" when installing
  the fax driver.
* If you use the installer under Windows 98/Me, the installation may be 
  suspended depending on the system environment you use. In this case, restart 
  your computer, and then retry the installation.
* If you log on Windows 2000 as a Power User and run the installer, the 
  installation may not be completed correctly. In this case, log in as an 
  Administrator, and then retry the installation.
* If a message prompting you to restart your computer is displayed when using 
  the installer, make sure to restart your computer. If you do not restart your
  computer, existing drivers may not operate correctly.
* For Windows 98/Me, if you update the fax driver v2.00 or older using the 
  New Driver button in the Details sheet of the printer properties dialog box, 
  the driver will not be updated correctly. First delete the previous fax 
  driver, and then install this version of the driver.
* If you are using the printer auto-creation mechanism in a MetaFrame 
  environment, you may not be able to correctly install this driver 
  using the Installer. If so, restart the MetaFrame Server PC and 
  check the Printers folder (Printers and Faxes folder in Windows XP/
  Server 2003/Vista). If any existing printer icons are no longer displayed, 
  re-install the relevant fax drivers in the MetaFrame Server PC 
  using the Add Printer Wizard in the Printers folder. 
  Then, before starting the Installer to install this driver, 
  disconnect all client printers from all the ICA sessions using 
  the ICA Client Printer Configuration utility. After installing 
  the driver, restart the ICA Client Printer Configuration utility 
  and reconnect the printers.

To install using the Installer:
1. Insert the Fax Driver Software CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
2. Double-click the My Computer icon, and then double-click the CD-ROM drive 
   icon.

  "instdrv.ini" and "uninst.ini" files following the procedure below:
  Right-click the file and select Properties, clear the Read-only check box, 
  and then select the Archive check box.
* If you are using a shared printer in the Print Server (Point and Print)
  environment, it is necessary to install Canon Driver Information Assist
  Service in the server PC in order to set up the printer configuration
  automatically or to use the Job Accounting feature.
* If you are using an operating system equipped with Windows Firewall, a 
  message which asks if you want to change the Windows Firewall setting is 
  displayed during the installation.
  - If you select Yes, Windows Firewall will be configured to unblock the 
    connection for Canon Driver Information Assist Service, so that you can 
    set up the printer configuration automatically or use the Job Accounting
    feature.

     button, point to Control Panel, and then click Printers.

Accessing Help Information
==========================
You can locate additional help for questions you may have regarding your fax in the Online
Help file provided with the driver. In the fax properties dialog box, you can click [Help] to
display additional information about every feature and option in the fax driver. For
Windows 98/Me, you can also click ? (Help) in the upper right corner of most dialog
boxes, and then click a specific item in the dialog box for help on that item.


Cautions, Limitations and Restrictions
======================================
1. Custom paper sizes are not available for sending a fax.

2. Do not specify more than 1 for the Copies option in the application since 
   the fax may be sent more than once in some applications when the Copies 
   option is specified in the application.

3. Specify a NetWare Server name or NDS tree name up to 15 characters.

4. For Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista when installing with Add Printer from the 
   Printer Folder, the Cannot find Digital Signature message may appear.
   If this message appears, continue with the installation. The fax driver will
   install correctly.

5. When using Terminal Server for Windows 2000, or sharing Windows XP/Server
   2003/Vista by multiple users, it is not available to use the Job Accounting 
   feature or set up printer configuration automatically.

6. For Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista, it is necessary to use TCP/IP as a network 
   protocol in order to set up the printer configuration automatically when 
   using a Remote Desktop environment, or when Windows is shared by multiple 
   users.

7. When using the Job Accounting feature under the NetWare environment, it is 
   not available to verify the ID and password even if the Confirm ID/Password
   when Sending Fax check box is selected in the ID/Password Settings dialog 
   box. Thus, you cannot send a fax if the specified ID and password are 
   invalid.

8. For the iR330-400, only System Version 2.0 (or later) is supported by the 
   fax driver version 1.2 (or later).

9. If double quotation marks or CSV separators are included in any of the items
   (Such as name and fax numbers) stored in a CSV file, the addresses stored in
   the file may not be imported to the address book correctly.

10.If you have upgraded your operating system from Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003
   to Windows Vista, you will no longer be able to access the address book. 
   If this is the case, perform the following procedure.

   1. Copy the address book files (gpfax.adr and gpfax.idx) from the system 
     folder (the default system folder is "C:\Windows") to another folder 
     (e.g. "My Documents"). This step can be carried out before or after you 
     upgrade the system.

   2. After you have upgraded the system, reinstall the fax driver in the new 
     system, open the [Edit Address Book] sheet, click the [Specify a folder] 
     button, and choose the folder you copied the address book files to in 
     step 1 (e.g. "My Documents") as the address book folder.

   3. Click the [Yes] button in the following dialog box.

11.If double quotation marks are included in any of the items (Such as names
   and fax numbers) stored in an ABK file (*.abk), the addresses stored in the
   file may not be imported to the address book correctly.

12.When an "@" character is used in the name of the printer, the printer will 
   become unrecognizable by the operating system because of an invalid printer
   name thus disabling printing, operation and setup.

13.When you log on to an Administrator account that is different from the one 
   used to install the software, you will not be able to access the driver 
   properties with Administrator privileges. To access the driver properties, 
   select [Run as Administrator].

14.In certain applications, thickness of a line can be set to a value smaller 
   than 1pt but the actual thickness in the printout may be equivalent to that 
   of an 1pt line.
