Hi
The driver for your printer does not exist for windows 8
But

Do not let your cd auto start Browse the disc in file manager. Drag driver folder on to desktop.
This works about 50% of the time.

You need to ‘CONFIGURE’ your printer in windows 8,to do so –
GO TO START -> DEVICES & PRINTERS -> Upper left corner you will see ‘ADD PRINTER’ Click it & follow process & choose your printer from list complete process;then you will be able to install printer
