Installing and configuring the AFP driver

The InfoPrint AFP Driver software lets you produce Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) output from desktop applications so you can use the powerful features of AFP in a wider range of environments. Used with InfoPrint Select or a Windows gateway printer, the AFP Driver provides a high degree of control over the appearance of your printed documents. This section contains procedures for unpacking and installing the InfoPrint AFP Driver on a Windows system.

English versions of the AFP drivers for all Windows platforms are provided on the InfoPrint Manager: Common Clients DVD-ROM, LCD4-5642. You can also download English and other language versions of the AFP driver from the Ricoh website at https://dl.ricohsoftware.com/downloads/aa9a248e-101c-4aa6-b109-1cf7403f3b4f. Translated drivers might not be identical to the English version because they are updated on a different schedule.

Use the procedures below to unpack and install the AFP drivers on your Windows system.
