Detailed Guide
Connect the printer to power, but wait to connect the printer via USB until the installation program asks you to do so. If you have already connected the printer to the USB port, you can simply unplug it from the USB port again.
Installing the Printer Driver on Windows 10
Download the printer driver (4BARCODE 4B-2054K) by following this link.
After you have downloaded the printer driver, it is usually located in the "Downloads" folder on your computer. You need to run the installation file either directly from your browser or from the folder where the file is saved.
After clicking the installation file, the installation program appears. Accept the license agreement and click "Next".
Now you need to choose where the installation program should be extracted to. The default location is your desktop, where the installation program creates a folder named "Seagull". Click "Next".
You now need to choose whether you want to run the driver installation after the files have been extracted to the desktop. Check "Run driver wizard after these are extracted". Uncheck "Read installation instructions" if you wish, and then click "Finish"
An icon will now appear in the taskbar, flashing orange. Click the icon to accept running the installation as Administrator.
The driver installation now starts. Select "Install printer drivers" and click "Next".
Select installation via "USB" and connect the printer to the USB port on the computer. When the installation program finds the printer, the next screen in the installation program appears automatically.
Select "Install a driver for a plug-and-play printer" and click "Next".
Give the printer a name if you wish, or keep the existing printer name. This is the name your printer will have in the print dialog when you need to print shipping labels, etc. Click "Next".
The installation program is now ready to install the driver on your computer. Click "Finish" to complete the installation.
The installation program is now installing the printer driver. This may take a minute or two.
The printer driver is now installed, and you can click "Close" to finish the installation.
