For the Windows 95 computer user, installing printer support is as easy as it gets. Windows 95 will detect a newly attached printer when Windows 95 starts up, or when the user requests Windows 95 to detect new devices, and use the INF file contents as a script for automatically installing printer support. Depending upon the INF file contents, Windows 95 may prompt the user during this process.
A user requests detection of new devices by using the Add New Hardware icon in the Windows 95 Control Panel.
