Note to U.S. Government Users -- Documentation related to restricted rights -- Use, duplication or disclosure is subject to restrictions set forth in GSA ADP Schedule Appendix A: Package Specific Installation Instruction This update is packaged as a self-extracting PackageForTheWeb (PFTW) executable file. To use this update your TEMP environment variable must be set to a path with read/write access. You must be logged in as an administrator. The command-line syntax for PackageForTheWeb executable device driver update package is: Package.exe [-s] [-a [-s] | [-x directory] | [-?] ] [-s] This command installs an update silently and does not notify you if your files need to be over written in the %temp% directory. [-a] This command passes all subsequent commands to the install package. [-s] This second -s command installs the update silently and unattended. [-x directory] This command extracts the update files to a directory named directory. The PackageForTheWeb executable extracts itself to subdirectory in the %TEMP% directory. Extracted directories will be relative to that location. Typically you must specify an absolute directory. [-?] This command displays information about the command line switches. The command line swithces -a and -x are unattended. Other command line options such as display help (-?) might require that you to hit any key to continue. If Windows packages are run without any command line options, a GUI is displayed. This GUI offers all of the options that are available using the command line.
